This is my favorite book series & I figured it‘s time for a reread. The narrator (Stephanie Daniel) is fabulous & I can‘t recommend this series enough! 5⭐️

This is one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies, It Happened One Night. Ellie teaches Peter that the limb is mightier than the thumb when hitchhiking.

One of my favorite things about Miss Fisher‘s Murder Mysteries is Phryne‘s fabulous wardrobe! The 1920s is my favorite time period in general, but for clothes especially.
fabulous frocks flow
freely from Phryne‘s fantastic
form — flatteringly.

Remembering Patrick Swayze who passed away from pancreatic cancer 16 years ago today. I have such a soft spot for him. Lost him the same way I lost my uncle. He‘ll always be missed. 💜

dirty dancing ghost. 💜

This has been languishing on my currently reading shelf for 6 months 😬 Finally sat down & finished it yesterday. Would recommend to movie buffs, especially Old Hollywood and/or if you have an interest in French New Wave films. 4⭐️

where were you that day
when it all went away — the
world that we once knew.
day of infamy,
thousands lost — landscape of our
world forever changed.
I have that morning burned into my memory. I was a senior in a private high school & we were in chapel. One of my teachers came in to tell us what happened. We had his class next hour & sat there listening to the towers collapse on the radio. #neverforget ♥️🤍💙

I‘ve recently discovered the stand-up comedy of Matt Rife. He is absolutely hilarious, & if I‘m having a bad day I just watch his clips on instagram. His interactions with the crowd are the best. Also happens to be his birthday today! If you haven‘t seen him give him a watch (if you don‘t mind dirty stand-up).

There was a total eclipse last night with a blood moon. I couldn‘t see it from where I am but found this gorgeous picture on the internet. The Eiffel Tower is a bit more picturesque than where I am anyway 😆.

I joined Litsy almost 10 years ago. Heard about it in an email from Book Riot. Wasn‘t thinking particularly creatively when I made my username, but it was during the height of my Justin Timberlake obsession. So if anybody was curious about who the JT is in JenlovesJT47, it‘s this guy. 😬🤓😎
Jen loves JT? who‘s
she talking about? I know —
it‘s gotta be may. 😉

Got this French oracle deck. It‘s a reproduction of a Lenormand deck that rich French aristocrats used as a party game. The instructions are a bit confusing so I‘m gonna have to work on that, but the cards are fun.

drôles et très jolies.

I‘ve gone down the Fleetwood Mac rabbit hole this year after hearing Gold Dust Woman on Daisy Jones & The Six (listened to it on repeat for a month straight). This song sung by Lindsey Buckingham is my current obsession. It starts at 42:35 https://youtu.be/9suHkG7QfYw?si=bfkBq2zoK1kvYPry
so i‘ll go insane
like i always do — yeah,
