Black and White
south of the border, down mexico way...
I am so excited to be heading to Rosarito for a few days. I haven't been there in years and I literally cannot wait. I've been packing all night, since I am both overly neurotic and indecisive. When I leave town, even if just for a day I find myself packing a ton of clothing options and beauty products...it's nuts. However, I've been playing some pretty snazzy music to keep myself company (and a vodka soda helps as well..), so I figured I'd share my playlist with you:
Ornette Coleman-Tomorrow is the Question
Sonny Rollins-Saxophone Colossus
Grand Ole Party-Humanimals
Sigur Ros
Simple, easy and fun. Just put it on shuffle.

Vegan 4th of July Recipe
2 Cups grape-peach juice (or juice of choice)
1 1/2 tsp. agar powder
2 tbsp. agave nectar (optional--use only if your fruit is not very sweet)
10 ounces strawberries
2 bananas
1 1/2 cups blueberries
-Put one cup of the juice in a saucepan, and sprinkle the agar over it and allow it to soften for a few minutes.
-Then, heat on medium-high, stirring, until the agar is completely dissolved and the juice begins to boil in the remaining juice and the agave (optional) and remove from heat.
-Allow the agar mixture to cool slightly while you prepare the fruit. Be sure to stir the juice every minute or so.
-Remove the stems from the strawberries and slice them lengthwise. Place them on the bottom of a loaf pan, prettiest sides down.
-Slice the bananas and place them on top of the strawberries. Put the blueberries in an even layer on top of the bananas.
-Gently pour the juice mixture evenly over the berries. It will start to jell immediately, so work from side to side to make sure it's distributed evenly.
-Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely chilled and jelled.
-Invert over a platter to serve (you may need to lower the pan into a large bowl of hot water to loosen the edges and run a knife along the inside of the mold.)

Moonwalker
A lot has been said about Michael Jackson and his legacy this past week, but I think his own words say it best. Also, I love this part of "Moonwalker."
"My goal in life is to give to the world what I was lucky to receive: the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance."- Michael Jackson
"If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with."- Michael Jackson
