what are you into right now?

on my bucket list is to write the Great American Mango

do u have compensatory tropical fruits in your life, Owen? I feel like u shd not be denied this

I'm not into fruits at all, save berries when they're in season, and papaya salad. I like veggies.

I am into eating fish responsibly, that is, not at all except an occasional freshwater trout.
And Cerberus comics
Cómeme records
Doing hot yoga on hot days and taking selfishly long cold showers

aw man fruit in summer is alltime

I'm into sitting in my hot house with no a/c and no fans on and sweating like crazy.
I'm into staying out of the sun at all times. I am going on a beach vacation with family and plan on reading indoors.
Oh I am also into expensive honey in a spoon, that is amazing, fixes you right up.

dried mangoes are wonderful!!
mangoes are perhaps my fav fruit behind the humble guava

I AM SO INTO GUAVA RIGHT NOW!! I have bought like 7 in the past month and I have a can of guava shells in my pantry to experiment w making guava cheesecake. Also those green-wrapper Asian guava candy.

• beer brats w/ melted pepper jack cheese

I'm currently exploring the hidden but crucial links between the vein structure of the Tsutsuji Azalea leaf and the drum patterns Fred White played on Donny Hathaway's 1973 album Extension of a Man. It's all I think about, as a matter of fact.

At a loose end one day last week, I dressed up for a lark in a blue-grey suit-and-tails with a purple-green dress-and-gown slung over it. Desirous of creating an impression, and perhaps kindling a little aspiration in the youth of the neighbourhood, I decided to put in an appearance at my local exotic hot-house.

There, to my disappointment, no-one paid me the slightest morsel of attention. So I began examining one of the brittle, hard Azalea leaves. By chance, "I Love the Lord; He Heard My Cry (Parts I & II)" started playing just then on my iPod. I noticed with a start that Fred White's percussive punctuations fell, in time, exactly where the Azalea's veins fell in space.

The chlorophyllic ducts, light green against their dark background, reminded me of the veins on a splendid young equestrian phallus, perhaps the penis of a prize stud living at a high-altitude New Zealand horse farm where the air, early in the morning, is sharp and clear. At such a place there is sure to be a glasshouse containing rare and wonderful blooms, and it shouldn't take much lysergic encouragement, if you are there, to begin seeing clear parallels between their leaf structure and the rhythms of Fred White's performances on tracks such as "Come Little Children" and "Lord Help Me".

If this does occur I would recommend that you to skip lunch (let's face it, you have no appetite anyway) and at once climb the path that follows the crystalline stream, rising from the melting huddle of rock-daze to the grinning skull of the treeline, where a paranoid scarecrow stands screeching. If you listen long enough to his scream - which starts terrifying, but becomes more and more beautiful - you will realise that it's Donny Hathaway's version of "Love, Love, Love". Just sung very, very slowly.

'80s/'90s supermodels (cindy, christy, naomi, claudia, linda)

The PR guy at work (who you think would know better) told us that Kristen McMenamy is 60 years old.

Man, what ever happened to her??? See also: that Helmut Newton blonde named I think Nadja or something? She was HUGE (literally and figuratively), and then she just. . . disappeared.

Nadja Auermann!! I looove Ève Salvail too

I was soooo into late-80s-to-mid-90s fashion for a minute there. Have you seen Altman's Pret A Porter or Unzipped or the Christy Turlington doc Catwalk?

Also I plan on making one of these soon
