We’ve invited our good friend, faithful Delight customer, and super talented actor, Lynn Chen, to be our Guest Editor this month. Lynn co-stars in the new comedy, “White on Rice” opening in limited release on Sept 11th.
Be sure to visit the clever site, follow the filmmakers on Twitter and Facebook, and watch the hilarious trailer. We’re so excited to see this flick!
You may know Lynn from her films including Saving Face (a role that won her “Outstanding Newcomer Award" at the 2006 Asian Excellence Awards) “Mentor”, "I'm Through With White Girls," and Neil LaBute's "Lakeview Terrace," alongside Samuel L. Jackson, (all available on DVD) or maybe you’ve seen her as a frequent guest star on “Law and Order” and a regular on "All My Children".
While all this makes Lynn super special our girl crush is really due to her addictive and very funny blog about food and healthy body image at TheActorsDiet.com. We love the round-up of actors who tweet about food such as Sarah Silverman’s take on Carrots and Lisa Rinna’s gushing about eating cereal for dinner. Follow Lynn on Twitter! and feel free to crush all over her on LynnChen.com
Here are Lynn’s Delightful Picks!
Artist Series Bowls
When I'm rushing around town for auditions and interviews, I need to eat on the go, often in the driver's seat (pulled over, of course). These are a heck of a lot prettier than traditional tupperware and I love that they're BPA free!
Cool Feet
I'm forever on my laptop, and was devastated a few weeks ago when its fan broke. To prevent this (and carpel tunnel) from happening, I absolutely need this!!! Buddha Bowls
I love big bowls and I cannot lie. At home, I rarely eat at a table so I like bowls with handles - more spill control. This one is microwave safe, so it’s perfect for all my reheating needs.
Eco-Sassy Hello Kitty SIGG Bottle
I’m never without my SIGG bottle. I love taking it on trips and refilling at public water fountains and the hotel gym; saves a bundle in money and plastic. The Active Sports Top makes it easy to just gulp away without screwing and unscrewing the cap (like a sippy cup, so I chose the Hello Kitty theme to thoroughly regress.)
Grobal Self Watering Plant Pot
I’ve got a black thumb. I absolutely need a plant that will tell me when it’s thirsty. YummyEarth Lollipops
If you read my blog, you will see that I have a lollipop every single day. Sometimes twice a day. This might make me feel a little less guilty about my habit, especially with the Vitamin C flavors...
The Bettina Go-About Bag
A bag that will fit my headshots and my laptop? Yes, please! Plus, the pop of color makes me feel less drab (I'm always dressed in neutrals).
Chalkboard Candles
This is my go-to gift for everything from a "Welcome to your new house" to "Thanks for dog sitting" and you can't beat the price. http://www.delight.com/Chalkboard-Candle
Modern Plunger
How cute is this? I have a testy toilet and with this plunger even if it doesn't work I always have fun just looking at it.
Paring Knives
This are brilliant! Love the colors and boy do they work.
