Sophisticated Sunday at the Oscars

I love the Oscars.  I don't care that they are probably fixed, under-rehearsed, and as political as a presidential campaign, I love them for this.
and this:
and this!
You got it. The most sophisticated, stunning designers and dresses in the world come out this night. I really don't think I would have to win an Oscar to be happily in heaven with Badgley Mischka, Alexander McQueen and Louis Vuitton teams fussing over me. Well, maybe the statue would be a nice accessory in the end.

That, and Cirque du Soleil! WHAT WAS THAT?!?! I need to book my trip to Vegas NOW. Amazing amazing amazing.

A bit shocked as to how fast this week went by. I feel like I don't even know what happened. Ok it's coming back to me. I re-did my webpage a little bit...www.adrianalomysh.com...still needs a total overhaul reno but I simplified (sensing a theme here?), switched out new pictures and changed my recording clips. Got my new business cards, new thank you cards and new headshots printed...
Which leads me to my quote of the week. As actors we focus on business business business, but in the meantime we also must focus on making art and connecting with our maker to connect with our audiences. After watching the Oscars tonight one can see where that is a fairly clear distinction. Art juxtaposed with big publicity stunt. So I end with a quote from the legendary actress to win two Oscars and was first actress to be nominated for ten Academy Awards.
Without wonder and insight, acting is just a business. With it, it becomes creation.

  • First course: Strawberry salad. Dark greens with diced strawberries, feta cheese, almonds and raspberry vinaigrette dressing. 
  • Second course: Baked chicken breast marinated in honey dijon, topped with fresh basil, rosemary and goat cheese with a side of angel hair wheat pasta sauteed in garlic and butter.
  • Third course: Blackberry cabernet sorbet/whipped topping/strawberry almond cocktail.
To drink? Veuve Clicquot mais oui!
