Just Do It: 10 Fruits & Vegetables to Buy Organic

Ichigo Daisuki!

I had a nutritional OMG moment today, which is both good and bad: Good= I keep track of this stuff, and I like adding more information to an already sizable database of bizarre nutritional information. BAD= there’s still crazy shit out there waiting to surprise me. I would direct your attention to the [...]

Tea for One

So Classic!

Tuesday Pounce! In case I’ve been too subtle, I love tea, almost to the point of it being an addiction, and I have a compulsion towards tea paraphernalia. With my genetic split of English and Japanese, I suppose it’s appropriate?

I just want to sit in an October sunbeam and drink Typhoo tea brewed [...]

Migi

My fuzzy assistant!

I’m adding Toulouse Petit to my restaurant list; check out the food photos on Urban Spoon!

Capital Hill

Leftovers!

I ♥ ‘Zaw. The next best thing to fresh Zaw is leftover Zaw, because the salads are big enough to feed one person who loves salad for three meals, complimented nicely by a cold slice of pizza topped by prosciutto and  grape tomatoes. I’m partial to the Arugula Patch, Farmer’s Mistress salad – balsamic [...]

Cafe Presse & Capital Hill

Oishiiiii

Cafe Presse is great. Open at 7 a.m., serving food til 2 a.m., always delicious, sometimes not so fast with the service, but it’s a good thing. In my experience, the slow service is usually after the food has come, and while we are engrossed in conversation about how great that food was. I [...]

Weight

Tangerine!

I love it when the photography is so well thought out, even for a little French scale. This came up on Etsy right when I was thinking about weight: the fat, heavy raindrops hitting our window, the heft of a cup of steaming tea in my left hand, and the weight of my cat’s [...]

Fancy Chocolates

Schmancy!

In digging around the archives of Dessert First, I stumbled on some lovely pictures of chocolates by Fleurir that look just like jewelry I’d like to make, little gems in a neat little matcha-colored box ♥ Not my photo, but I’d love to try them sometime; maybe I’ll add San Francisco to my 2010 [...]

Bicycles

Bicycle Bliss

Guess what I want for my birthday this year? The most perfect dress, almost circa 1950′s Japan…I swoon for this dress ♥

I would wear it with these: (if I had them)

Halfsies

…they’re even the same blue as the dress! Of course, I have shoes, some lovely Corso Como kitten heeled ankle boots, or [...]

Eating Out: 2010

Sashimi!

Monday Pounce!

To go with my Life List 2010, I’m making a list of places to go this year:

Crocque Madames at Cafe Presse

Waffles at Volunteer Park Cafe

Lasagna pizza at Via Tribunali; sure, we’ve done it before, but it would be a crime not to go back for more…

Poppy…I’d like to know someone who has [...]
