'Dustbin' is one word. ;)

omg yes!

love it! my overlapping dream was act'ly art history! I took an undergrad class on 18th-c. French painting & wrote all my papers on dress in various paintings (Watteau, Vigee-Lebrun, etc.)

PS another nice one similar to Balvenie is Dalwhinnie!

yr field of study is awesome!! when I was in college I dreamt of studying the history of dress/becoming an academic in this area (or in cultural history, which is maybe what you're doing).

Balvenie (as other person said) is a gd beginner's single-malt, lovely & not too overwhelming. I think spending $$ on Irish whiskey (even the good stuff) is a waste tho — single-malt is the way 2 go.

I can't even.

yup, esp. since her current husband is Richard Branson's heir.

I recommend Seba Med (German non-soap bar soap), you have to order it online in the US, but it's the best for sensitive skin all over (incl. face)!

Sorry, 'his Chinese friend'? According to the NYT the character's parents immigrated from Taiwan & he's American.

Is that even a picture of Harvard?

I was put on a lo-estrogen Pill by my gyno when I was diagnosed w/PCOS at 25, still taking it at 44. It drastically improved my cystic acne & I've never had problems w/low sex drive or dryness! Just wanted to say so women aren't scared off of trying it - it's been great for me.

Barf, hate her (even though she's funny on MF).

(I mean yes it's a victory.)

Yes.
