Emergency hot fudge sundae

It has been one of those weeks where I've had occasion to have at least one emergency hot fudge sundae. I guess it's part of the fun of working from home, but in just a few minutes I can cobble together hot fudge sauce with a shot of espresso, chocolate chips, and a spoon of peanut butter, all nuked in the microwave. Toss in a healthy scoop of vanilla frozen yogourt and the world is kept at bay until I get to the bottom of the bowl.

One of the things that got me worked up enough for an emergency HFS was the terrible news that Metropolitan Home mag is closing its doors. December will be the last issue. Sheesh. So to take my mind off things I had a poke around PointClickHome, which MH mag shares with Elle Decor, and discovered this cool little makeover. It's Carrie Fisher's dressing room at Studio 54, the nightclub-turned-performance space where she's performing her fantabulous one-woman show Wishful Drinking. Anyways, check out the beastly before, and then see what wonder was wrought by designer John Gidding in what must have been a dizzying 2 weeks. For more, click here for the full story.
