loving lately.

The King's Speech / late to the party much? We finally watched this last week and I was enthralled. I thought it was stunningly beautiful. The direction, the acting, the story. I was so into it I forgot where I was. Hell, I forgot who I was. I loved it. In the worlds of Leslie Knope, "I cannot over-hype it enough."

Parks

Parks & Recreation / speaking of Leslie Knope and being late to the party. Not sure why it took me so long to jump on this train, but I'm on now and holding on for dear life. I haven't been this committed to watching a show on a loop since Arrested Development (which is obviously the greatest show ever). / image via gq.com

The Help / adored this book. And I'm excited that it's going to be a movie. I usually love watching good books become movies. I think I'll see this one as a matinee by myself once we get Paul shipped off. I'm also excited about seeing Midnight in Paris, Page One & of course, the Harry Potter finale. (Luckily Paul will still be in town for that one.) Another sidenote : I love Kindle books on the iPad. I know it's not for everyone, and I certainly didn't think it was for me, but turns out - totally is. I'm hooked for life.

Anything else I should be obsessed with? Books? Movies? Shows? I'm going to have seven months of free time that needs to get filled up...

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in Northern California with my husband and our two daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]elisejoy.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.

Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
