Give me more peN.Ne

My current obsession: penne arrabiata! I just cannot get enough of this simple, yet delicious pasta with a tomato/chili sauce (and garlic!). I had this three times (in the same restaurant) last week! I also like ordering it because the name is fun / a challenge to pronounce. Can you roll your r's?

But more importantly, do say penne properly: pen-neh. If you just say pen-eh, it means something rather different (hint: male body part)...!

Kate at Wimbledon

Cute dress - I probably wouldn't have chosen it for myself but it looks good on her - and in the spirit of Wimbledon. Have you seen her arms? Very toned, not just skinny - I thought she'd simply lost a lot of weight recently but it looks like she's been working out! 


Dress: Temperley London

Kate's military chic

I absolutely adore this coat!
I guess it looks a lot like the one I got from Zara last year...

Brain Losing Consciousness

Time - Video: Brain Losing Consciousness Under Anesthesia
hat happens to your brain as it slips into unconsciousness? A new technique allows researchers to view real-time 3-D images of a patient undergoing anesthesia using the drug propofol, and the findings show that consciousness isn't suddenly switched off, but rather fades as though a dimmer is being dialed down.

Kevin MD - Letter To Newly Diagnosed Cancer Patient

Dear “Robin,”

Nothing in my career in medicine has prepared me for being a friend to someone with such a terrible disease. As a doctor I dispense advice on a daily basis, but those interactions remain strangely impersonal. With you, cancer has invaded our inner circle, and we all share your shock and despair...

High on Prada

What was I thinking?!


I just bought a pair of impossible sandals from Prada. I don't even know if I'll be able to walk in them. My biggest fear is that I'll twist my ankle trying to walk in them. Now that would be embarrassing...


They are nice looking, though, aren't they?
