Busy Bee

This week I will be overwhelming busy but busy is good. So sorry if i take a blog breather. My internship is having more to do and its crunch time in summer school. Lots of presentations to prepare for. Working an extra day at the salon. And I'm making an effort to spend more time with my friends. Tomorrow night, I'm going to enjoy happy hour with one of my littles, Marsha, and sushi with friends Friday night! I can't wait =) On Thursday, I'll be meeting the family, I'll nanny for. I hope everything goes well. Then Saturday is my one year anniversary with Kevin! Time flies.

Food for Thought


If you haven't seen this website, thisiswhyyourefat.com, you totally should!
It's absolutely ridiculous yet amazing. The site is composed of photo submissions of the craziest creations. Everything is deep fried, double stuffed, chocolate dipped and bacon wrapped. I love junk food but this takes it to a new level. So I had this random idea to make some of these crazy creations & blog about it, of course. I love cooking and baking but it might be a challenge for my stomach & waistline.

What should I make first?


Here are some examples:
The Lurther Rory
A one third pound of sirloin topped with two slices of American cheese, four strips of bacon, peanut butter between two Krispy Kreme donuts.

Double Cheeseburger Po-Boy
A 14inch po-boy with six eight ounce cheeseburger patties.

Delightful Danville

I'm spending the night at Kevin's in Danville.
Cute & Quaint little town.
His dogs (Paco & Emma) bark all the time but they're growing on me.
I've haven't been home to San Diego in months & probably won't be there until Thanksgiving so I really love being here and the feeling of home and all it's comforts.

What are your plans this weekend?

Good Morning!

It's a chilly Tuesday morning in San Francisco. My day started off bright & early. I was at work by 8am. I needed a warm pick me up but Starbuck had a line out the door. So instead I went to La Boulange and it was amazing! They had beautiful pasteries, organic breads and so many goodies. I had coffee and a mini turkey, cheddar & pesto sandwich. Delicious! Definitely found my new favorite spot on Union St.

After work, I'm going to help simulate the economic. Nordy's annual sale! Can't wait =)

My dad


Happy Birthday Dad.
My dad passed away a year & a half ago and not a day goes by that I don't think about him. Wondering if I'm making him proud or wishing I had more time to spend with him. I miss him so much and get brought to tears every time I think about him. I often think about not having him with me at different milestones of my life, like my college graduation or walking me down the aisle. He'll always be in heart and I'll always be daddy's little girl.

Love Love LOve


Marc by Marc Jacobs 'Classic Q- Hillier' Hobo
I've been looking for a new everyday bag for awhile now and this might be the one. I love the simplicity and functionality. I can probably fit a gazillion things it in.
Love it but still looking around


Theory-Raineria Dress
I was doing some shopping for a friend's baby shower and I love this dress. The baby shower is months away but it never hurts to look. I adore the fit of the dress, so feminine yet very appropriate for a baby shower.



Muni Crash at West Portal

Yesterday, as I was leaving work a client came wanted to tan. She was sweet and said it's OK & she'll come back later. But I stayed longer and allowed her to tan anyways since she was already at the salon and it's was the least I could do. good karma coming... A little time went by and I was able to go home. I did what I usually do, walk up to Union & Van Ness got on the bus and got off at Van Ness Station to muni. It was a short wait then the L came. But before I went on I had second thoughts but I figured it was a sign the L came because I need to go to Safeway near Tavaral & 19th. It was a normal afternoon ride, not very crowd, made the usual stop then at Forest Hill station the driver inform us their was an incident at West Portal station and we had to wait about 15 minutes or so. A few moments went by, some people got off but I didn't think anything of it. I was almost home at West Portal. Then the driver suggests the incident is a little major and the train wasn't moving. Still I'm very calm because there was nothing pressing I had to do. Luckily, it was a short walk from Forest Hill to my house in West Portal. I was curious to find out what all the fuss in West Portal was. As my walked the station, I heard sirens and see tons of police cars, fire trunks & ambulance. People were everywhere and it was chaos. I walked closer and saw that two muni trips run into each other! It was the trains before mine. The crash was so frighten and the passengers from the trains getting medical attention looked horrified. So...... if I didn't stay later to tan the client, I would have been all those trains. And if I didn't get on the L train, I wouldn't be able to walk home from Forest Hill to West Portal. 48 people injured & 4 severely, I hope they are all OK & well.


What do you make of this?
