Meals on Wheels
Two wheelin' and dealin’ all around town is bound to make a gal hungry. Whether you’re commuting to work with leftovers in tow or biking to the park for an outdoor sammie, skip the backpack and store your meal in this easy-to-sew lunch bag. Just the right shape for an entrée-size plastic con- tainer, it hangs from the top tube of your bike (or your handlebars if your top tube slopes) and fi ts perfectly in the frame, so it won’t slow you down when you ride like the wind.

Sin City
Since 1992, Tori Amos has been making unflinching music that defi es categorization. The 45-year-old singer/songwriter has earned legions of devoted fans with her soaring vocals, poetic lyrics, and frank sexuality. As the economic crisis has us anxious about the future, her haunting, perceptive music has never seemed timelier. Abnormally Attracted to Sin (Universal Republic), her 10th studio record, is a darkly sexy album loaded with heavy questions about spirituality, love, why we let others hurt us, and why we hurt ourselves.

Viva La Vida!
“We just found out this week that it’s rated R. I was like, ‘Why is it rated R? Oh, yeah, there is the word ‘cuntsucker’ in there,’” says Vendela Vida, laughing. The R movie in question is Away We Go, a fi lm the 37-year-old literary all-star co-wrote with her husband, author Dave Eggers, that comes out in early June. It stars John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph as a 30-something couple with a baby on the way, searching for a city to settle down in, and was directed by Sam Mendes of Revolutionary Road fame. Not bad for Vida’s fi rst foray into screenwriting. But also not surprising, considering what she’s already accomplished as an author with a compelling knack for writing about women.
