Please quit taunting me and tell me who is opening for you in Atlanta November 19.

And please let it be someone who doesn’t suck.

Kisses,

Cocos and Hazels and Apples, oh my!

So, I read today that Nicholas Cage had a son over the weekend.

His name? Kal-el Coppola Cage.

That’s right, folks. Kid’s named after a Superman character.

I think naming your kid something asinine has become something of a trend in the celebrity world. In the past few years, we have welcomed:
- Coco Arquette
- Hazel and Phinnaeus (Roberts) Moder
- Apple (Paltrow) Martin (though, secretly, I kind of like that one…)
- Audio Science Clayton (son of Shannon Sossamon of A Knight’s Tale)
- Speck Wildhorse Mellencamp (qwa?)
- Elijah Bob Guggi Q Hewson (though I can sadly tell you where every part of that name came from, given that I’m a stupidly-rabid U2 fan…)

… and don’t even get me started on Paula Yates (I try not to speak ill of the dead).

Mmm. October.

There’s just something kind of satisfying about the beginning of October. I guess it’s because I consider it the “unofficial” beginning of fall (nevermind that it’s still a balmy 78 degrees here in Atlanta…).

Fall’s probably one of my favorite times of year - I love the cooler days, the changing of the leaves, and the food that it brings. In fact, today I indulged in making pumpkin-cranberry scones. :) I’ll be mailing these to a friend as part of a baking circle that we’ve started on the .net. I also set out my fall placemats, bowls, and candles today and did a little cleaning while I was at it.

Here’s hoping the weather cooperates soon and starts feeling more like fall. :)
