I actually wanted to talk to you about something else this week but I will have to postpone that until next week because I don&#8217;t have the time at all and I would like to write a longer post. Anyhow, I wanted to share Opening Ceremony&#8217;s Spring Summer 2012 short [...]]]></description><link>http://www.englishmuse.com/2012/05/opening-ceremony.html</link> </item> <item><title>CocoRosie</title> <description><![CDATA[I first heard of CocoRosie in relation to Antony Hegarty. Sierra and Bianca Casady, two sisters separated in their childhood, reunited after many years in Paris, formed the band in 2003.  Growing up separately it is uncanny that they both were musical and developed and cultivated their talents singing and composing.

Same ol&#8217; Jess here- the only difference being that I am missing a good inch or two of hair since my last post. I have quite long hair, very straight, fine, brown (possibly boring) which I am trying to grow out for &#8216;Locks for Love&#8217;.

I don’t lose books. I lost this one. A few years ago, I bought “Chants of a Lifetime” in Los Angeles, got on the plane, read a few chapters, [...]]]></description><link>http://www.englishmuse.com/2012/05/krishna-das-i-feel-like-im-the-same-jerk-i-always-was-but-i-dont-think-about-myself-as-much-as-i-used-to.html</link> </item> <item><title>A tally of two cities</title> <description><![CDATA[Hello again friends, this is Naomi Bulger, guest blogging from Melbourne in Australia’s south.

She attended art school only briefly before spending many years on a series of odd jobs. She was a shepherdess, a tour guide in China and Mexico, a factory worker, a truck driver, a cleaning lady&#8230; When she was 40 and living in NYC she began her career [...]]]></description><link>http://www.englishmuse.com/2012/05/improbable-juxtapositions.html</link> </item> <item><title>The Art of Hats!</title> <description><![CDATA[&#160; Hello, dear English Muse readers!
