Sorry

I've been off with friends and family lately and haven't had too much time to blog.
Tomorrow I am going to The Mall of America and a lovely laid-back Italian Restaurant in downtown St. Paul, Cosetta, with a friend.
Living so close to the Twin Cities, "MOA" as we call it, is not too big of a deal. But if you haven't been there before, it is TO DIE FOR! So much variety and so much class all at once. I love it.
As for Cosetta, it is a quaint, inexpensive Italian restaurant in Downtown St. Paul. They have HUGE slices of pizza, an Italian salad bar and fresh pasta. Plus a little store and DESSERT! If you go there I recommend the pizza or the mostacholi and a nice SanPelligrino to drink. Then for dessert go for some homemade gelato (peach is my favorite) or a cannoli! It is the best!

Just a picture of The Mall.

The Outside of Cosseta and the Store next door.

Enjoy your travels and keep in touch!

the first.

I had a foreign exchange student at my school this past year and after hugging him he said "You are the Feerst." No one could understand what he was saying through his thick Finnish accent. My friend though he was saying I was the fiercest person. But I was his first hug in America :]

Now here's the "feerst" playlist.

1. Oh No- Andrew Bird
I Throughly enjoy the "so let's get out of here.." part. Reminds me of floating away..
2. Help I'm Alive- Metric
The vocals rock on this song-strong and soft.
3. Nikorette- Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band
Fun, bouncy, happy song sung by a cutie!
4. Art Brut- Alcoholics Unanimous
Makes me visual a rebellious British Man.
5. French Navy- Camera Obscura
Makes me fly off to Cloud 9!
6. I'm Sorry Baby, But You Can't Stand in My Light Anymore- Bob Mould
Strong Ballad like song.
7. Now We Can See- The Thermals
I love love love the beginning vocals!
8. Sabali (Paul Epworth Mix)- Amadou and Mariam
So different so tribal so perfect.
9. Get Ready For Love- The Alrights
Quirky and Indie. Just the way I like 'em!
10. No Wedding Cake- Fol Chen
Simply Amazing.
11.(I couldn't pick just 10!)  Manhattan- Kings of Leon
The Followill Brother's could serenade me any day!
12.  The Rake's Song- The Decemberists
I just love their sound and vocals and everything!
13. Ain't No Rest For The Wicked-Cage the Elephant
Such a great song, so upbeat- I love singing along
14. Hysteric- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Karen O is inspiring for all women.

All of these songs I discovered through my favorite radio station 89.3 The Current. Tune in if you are in the Minnesota area or listen online at thecurrent.org.
