Instead of resolutions, I'm asking for your recs:

1) one funny, uplifting book to read this year
2) one brilliant piece of non-fiction to read this year
3) one piece of spiritual literature to read this year
4) one person to friend this year
5) one smooth, mellow artist to discover this year
6) one thing to do this year

Have a great 2005!

(P.S.: Am not working today after all, just catching up on LJ and organising stuff.)

Well, I'm somewhat brain dead, but here goes:

3) one piece of spiritual literature to read this year: A Single Blade of Grass by Ellen Grace O'Brien (I can send you my copy to read if you can't get it out there)

5) one smooth, mellow artist to discover this year: Blossom Dearie - she's a jazz singer with this awesome little girlish voice singing raunchy (and not so) standards. Her self-titled album is from around 1954 and it's awesome. Apparently she's still alive and doing gigs in the UK.

6) one thing to do this year: Walk a labyrinth
