TV » Chelsea does … Netflix
If you are not a fan of Chelsea Hander like me, skip this series. I really miss her late-night show Chelsea Lately, but her comedy is not for everyone. In this four-part docu-series, she takes an in-depth look at specific topics and tries to gain a better understanding of what they mean, from Silicon Valley to marriage. I love her humor and abrasiveness, and she asks questions of experts that I wish I could. Oh, and she takes her dog Chunky with her everywhere. Gotta love that.
book » the last black unicorn by Tiffany Haddish
I had no idea who this comic was until I saw her on Jimmy Kimmel telling stories about making a movie in New Orleans with Jada Pinkett Smith. Her hilarious description of taking Jada and her husband on a swamp tour using Groupons made the book worth reading. She had a tough childhood, but there is something wrong with you if you don’t laugh out loud when you read her book.
app » sandbox
My 14-year-old son showed me this app, and I instantly was ‘drawn’ to it. It is a virtual color-by-number activity that is very relaxing. Sure, I also play solitaire and Words with Friends, which involve a bit of strategy and keep my mind sharp, but Sandbox is nothing like that. The designs are unique, fun and addicting. There is a paid version with more design choices, but I have found the free one to be enough.
