BlogHer Conference in D.C.

I'm thinking about going to the BlogHer Reach Out '08 Tour in D.C. on Monday, October 13th. Anyone else who reads this blog thinking of going (or already planning on going)?

Thanks to Rachel (Food Maven) for the info - she's going to be speaking!

Gwyneth Paltrow and Mario Batali: an unlikely pair

Thanks to Food Maven, I found out about this upcoming PBS documentary series: "Spain...On the Road Again". Gwyneth Paltrow*, Mario Batali, Mark Bittman, and "Spanish star" Claudia Bassols road-trip around Spain, eating and day-spaing their way around the country. I'm already in love with this series and it doesn't even start until this fall (it vaguely reminds me of my beloved "Long Way Round"**). Damn. Oh, how I love to live vicariously through others' adventures abroad. In the meantime, for your viewing pleasure:



* I can't explain it, but I completely love Gwyneth.

** I love Gwyneth, but I love Ewan more.
