something’s hiding in here

I bought one of these plaster hearts (in white) at the opening last night, I think it’s the perfect accompaniment for my white plaster teeth.

another year older

Today was my birthday, so my turn for birthday breakfast of choice. I asked T. to make me pop-overs, and he did a fabulous job (helped along by a birthday present from my best friend, a pop-over pan.) They were amazingly delicious.

We spent the last two days at the beach (a quick birthday get away,) [...]

weekend

Lisa Congdon’s show opening at Candystore on Thursday was great – the shows up for at least another month, so next time you’re in the Mission stop by and check it out. I especially loved the giant branches she painted on the wall.

Happy 4th!

The Fourth of July is and always has been my favorite holiday. Because I just don’t see how it can get any better than a no pressure day of barbecuing with friends, good weather, and berry-adorned cake followed by fireworks.

Annie Galvin at Candy Store

The opening was great last night, lots of paintings have sold but there are still a lot available. Candy Store is a great place, definitely somewhere I’ll be returning to. Annie’s show will be up for a month – make sure you stop by to check it out if you’re in the area.

Miss Annie herself, [...]
