UK UK UK

nothin like searchin for flights home only to find that its more expensive than trying to go home for christmas!! WTF!! but who cares cos i know the faces i get to see hands... i get to hold will make me cry for days.... BIG FAT GRIN... smiles for miles LOVE LOVE LOVE

theres a fall chill in the air!!!

Phew phew!!! im so happy, ive never loved getting goose bumps so much in my life!! summer here has been a total wack job! my hair has been a humidity embracing frizz bomb for 3 months straight- accept for the occasional 'drowned rat' look i adopted on a couple of flash flood occasions when i found myself without an umbrella and with only a somewhat sparse tree for shelter (see below) that afternoon was actually kind of amazing!




so im working from home and over eating/drinking too much coffee as usual today. the worst thing to do is over eat when you realy dont have anything fun or very nutritional in the kitchen (thats the case today) but somehow i still manage it. humpfh. :)
i just finished off the last of the m&s tea cakes Jen and Pete sent me from Bristol, UK. so now.. naturally all i can think about is the fact that capagiro is only like 5 blocks from my house... MUST.. R E S I S T.... I C E C R E A M.....


anyway... today im feeling really good about wearing my favourite jeans and this pretty crazo blouse.. breezy...smiley...inspired!

hump day

i was definetaly in a hump for most of the day but this face

and this taste...



helped a little...

then this was super super good..



le viet new (ish) vietnamese resturant at 11th and washington, sweet server and good food, kind of weird not very relaxing atmosphere (if i had to critique) but i was with CY so didnt even notice.. (the phillys game in the background-weird)


and now shavertown :)

burger time

last night was the bomb... hawethornes burger did the trick quite nicely and the shoe string fries were just the job... add some of their home made grainy mustard and its melt in your mouth tastyness..
oh and i should probably mention they have my favourite beer on tap right now, Japanese brand hitachino-nest, which i first tried because Aaron would drag me to fancy beer stores and i would pick my selection based on the bottles (i fell for the owel logo big time) see hitachino on cool hunting here


And im lucky lucky lucky again tonight cos i get to hang with my girl Yotter



unless were super lucky like the time above when we got to watch the sunset with friends and polish beers on this rad south philly roof, we will probably just be drinking and eating and smiling somewhere else ;) Yeay for us!

back with style

My favourite Hawaiian beauty has re-awakened my ache to blog about fun-ness and Philly happenings.

Not only is she super creative and talented but cute too and piccy about food (a girl after my own heart.

Alone time in the gym (my favourite) after a sweaty bike ride to work and back stretches.
