August 24...food!

Ipp and I had an Anthony Bourdain marathon tonight. So much good food! So many exciting places! Makes me want to travel.

We knew we'd get inspired (and hungry!) so we decided to cook up a bunch of fun appetizers to snack on.

One of the things we made was brioche! with goat cheese, honey and figs. We got the recipe from Lizzo and Robert.  Totally easy and delicious.

August 13th - party time!

what a FUN NIGHT celebrating Robin and Ben turning 30! so many fun jokes and roasts and toasts and talents. i could not imagine living in a more encouraging, fun, talented and hilarious community. what a great time to be alive...

August 4th...bone marrow

I went on a date tonight with a guy I met online.  Really nice...SUPER intense...kinda weird.
He ordered bone marrow as part of our dinner ...bizarreness.  I still can't decide if I like it or not.

July 23rd...bag lady

i may or may not own too many purses. okay....so i own too many purses. so tonight i decided i needed to get rid of a few of them before i grow old and turn into the bag lady. before i drop them off at goodwill i decided to see if any of you lovely people wanted them. they are all in great condition because i own so many i barely ever use these!! *sigh.
if you want one of them - let me know! i'm just giving them away for free. sorry these are pretty terrible pictures of them all, but it was the best i could do at 9p while cleaning my room :)
Message me (if you're reading this on FB), email me, or leave a comment if you want one of them.

Originally from Old Navy - big enough to be a computer bag.

No idea where this originally came from.

So cute and fun - perfect for a night out. Can't fit much.

really pink. and really fun.

Bought this in the Czech Republic - almost didn't put it up here to give away cause I just LOVE it...but I also never use it :(

no clue where I got this either - but it is simple and small.

This purse is CRAZY. Was a fun gift from my mom but I am not cool enough to ever pull it off.

July 22nd...gift bags

Spent the evening making gift bags for the women.  And now we get to go out and give them away.  Hoping for good conversations and connections.

July 21st...Concert in the park

I enjoyed a lovely evening with the fabulous Kaytee talking and eating and laughing. We joined some friends at the Levitt Pavillion for a free Carla Morrison concert  and some other chick that was actually pretty bad. 
All in all a pretty perfect evening.  I love my happy little city of Pasadena and my lovely friend Kaytee.

July 20th...EDDIE IZZARD

Eddie Izzard at the Hollywood Bowl.  THAT'S WHAT'S UP!

July 19th - Missing Nepal

I'm missing Nepal tonight...too long since I've been there.

July 18 - grocery fail

i went to the grocery store with 6 things on my list...and i didn't get two of them.

FAIL.

July 17 - switch up

before....

and

...after

Did I cut my hair or did Jen dye hers? I guess we'll never know.... (but I will say Jen would look super hot with dark hair!)

I had a lovely dinner this evening with Jen and Harris who are packing up to abandon me this week. I hate saying goodbye - I hate it when friends move. But I am so so so so proud of Harris getting into this PhD program and excited about what the future holds for them. And I guess this means I might get to visit TX for the first time ever!

July 16th...a walk

Tonight I took a little walk with the Gavinator.

July 15…the next great horror film

Attack of the birds...poop is falling from the sky (a.k.a...a bird pooped on my head today. )
