my favorite things.

one of my favorite things is the hours between 6 and 8 monday through friday. why, you ask. it's because of the world cafe broadcast. although i don't listen to it nearly enough, i do stalk david dye's website and music selections. the guests are always great, and much of my new music discoveries, i must attribute to dye's ear. plus, it's npr. how could you go wrong?

growing up, my parents constantly listened to npr. we (my 3 siblings and i) used to moan and grow tired of the constant talking and world updates. to this day my mom still cooks listening to all things considered. my parents have even seen michael feldman's whad'ya know? live. although, i can't get totally into some of these shows i think they're happy that npr has rubbed off on me.
