My six-year-old linen Pottery Barn duvet cover finally got so worn/thin it tore, so I'm in the market for a new one. Ever since spotting it in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, I've loved the idea of the one from The Bowery Hotel (above) at home.

Speaking of The Bowery, my take on a pasta dish from their restaurant, Gemma.

And more food talk -- what to do with your Thanksgiving leftovers.

If you're looking for something gripping to read -- Joan Didion's Blue Nights.

Two films to see this weekend -- A Dangerous Method, and The Artist.

Confession: I tried a chia seed Kombucha (I was so excited to see a grape flavor on the shelf, even the abundance of seeds didn't stop me!) today and was NOT into it. Recommendation: stick with the original.

Bazaar magazine Editor-in-Chief Glenda Bailey will be at Book Soup on Sunday afternoon (4:00 p.m.) discussing and signing Harper's Bazaar: Greatest Hits.

Check It. Rolling Stone.

Reason #5,068 to subscribe to Rolling Stone magazine--to get Mick Jagger in your mailbox instead of having to get the issue with Keith Richards on the cover (unless of course you prefer the less cute rocker).

I was thrilled with the latest issue, and then while picking up some necessities in CVS the other night, I noticed that some people aren't so lucky, and have a much less attractive (in my opinion) cover photo.

Not that I'm saying to judge a magazine by the cover ...

Many magazines do this once in awhile--Harper's Bazaar did it for the Demi Moore cover a few months ago.

Check It. Hearst Castle.

Hearst Castle (Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument), William Randolph Hearst's estate, is an amazing place to see. It's about four hours north of L.A. and a really beautiful drive up the coast. They are open daily for tours and reservations are recommended. Twenty-eight years in the making, the castle is phenomenal. The newspaper and magazine man really knew how to live it up. Not only is the sheer size of the place (115 rooms in the Main House--"Casa Grande") impressive, but the priceless art each room holds shows the lavish lifestyle Hearst experienced. The pool area, shown above (and also featured in the film Spartacus), is only the beginning. There is Tour 1, the Experience Tour, for first-timers, and then four additional detail tours best suited for returning visitors.

San Luis Obispo (about three hours north of L.A.) is a convenient place to stay the night on the way up or back from San Simeon.
