Oscars for Milk?

This Oscar moment, above, was in honor

of Mr. Hughes and Mr. DiCaprio, and

the homage wouldn't have been complete

without Howard's favorite beverage.

This year, it's all about Milk, again...

but the players have changed.

Sean Penn's brilliant portrayal of Harvey Milk

has garnered him another nomination for Best Actor.

The film itself received eight nominations.

Clicking each of the Oscar photos, here and following,

will allow you to examine everything in detail.

(This one's especially full of vintage goodies.)

Vintage Elegance: Party with Oscar

this weekend,

i'll be running photos

from an Oscar Party

shoot (merc. news) that

i put together a bit ago

the gloves belonged

to my grandmother.

the rest of it: found.

it was a fun shoot

to shop for, 'tho there

wasn't a ton of time

to do so. still: a

perfectly delightful

experience, thanks

to the team.

Oscar Party! Not. Tea Party! Yep.

Happy Oscars to All!

They are finally here, and--what do you know--I

woke up this morning my first truly remarkable

cold of the year. Well, it has smooth sailing for

a while, so I suppose my time was up...Anyhow,

I'll be wrapped in a blanket drinking tea and

watching every move Kate Winslet makes. As

well as Meryl and...oh, who else? Slumdog gang.

They put on a great show. And Sean Penn, I

suppose we'll get a good glimpse of him.

Cheers, everyone!
