sf

we took a little trip to the bay yesterday.  i love that i can get my dose of ocean and and marine plant life in no more than an hour and a half time! one of our(my) favorite places to go is the park and hiking trails in the sutro area.  when my family first moved to america, we lived across the street from the little park up on the cliff.  now our trips to that part of sf bring me such nostalgia it almost hurts.  that's why i guess i'll always have a soft spot for san francisco (when we have a son - i'll name him francisco - francisca if girl- lol kidding)

one day i'll scan some old photos from our family walks through the park (yes all seven of us - seven before anton) and show you.  one of the most random memories i have is couples making out on blankets like...everywhere!  i think one time i approached a couple just to see what happens if they saw me standing there and nothing happened.  they were making out when i came out to play after school and still there on my way home for dinner.  that is kind of amazing!

enyvey - we spent some time up on lands end trails, did some lunch at the stinking rose (i've always been curious about that place) - went for some ice cream, quick grab o' coffee and did one last stop at alamo square to see the "full house" house where wes gave me a good rundown of all the characters and what they were known for.

fortune cookie parking spots :)

look at this garlic goodness!  i think i was more obsessed about this than my actual dish.

okay i'll get back to muh day off.  i'm almost done with the garden of beasts.  if i can get my hands on the last hunger games book, i'll read that next or the stolen life by jaycee dugard.  my mommy in law read it in like two days i think.  bam.



thanks for stopping by!

raw deal

today i wore white on cream...on nude.  aside from wearing two different shades of the same color, i love the combo of a clean classic cut such as these white pleated shorts that were gifted, with a delicate puritan-like lace blouse (thrifted).







i wore - you guessed it - a mint colored blazer over this ensemble, but i never got a shot of it because the neighbor across the street came out and started watering his street (?) so i thought it was getting a bit awkward, you know...just me, taking pics of myself - no big deal, ha.  and it was time to head off to work anyway.  it was warm enough for lace and shorts, though let me tell ya.

anyway, olga, monica and i attended a thai inspired raw food class today at green boheme and i think it's safe to say that this was my first "full raw meal" experience (more like meal SAMPLE actually).  it was revolutionary to me how foods blend together so well to create this magnificent taste and you can skip the cooking, ha.  the only thing is i think we three expected to actually make and eat our entire individual meal since it was around supper time.  instead, we watched the instructor make one meal and set it aside.  oh the looks we exchanged before we knew that she was going to split the meal into fifteen bite-size portions.  lol.

the thing about it is, i think even wes might like the soup!  i'll make a real meal size at home perhaps ;)

good night now!

ps, how's the corny title for ya :)
