Just Sweet Love

Howie Doin

My sweet friend, Jenny, has the cutest dog in the world. Meet Howie. 

The tiny mutt ihasa apso/possibly shih tzu now has his own Tumblr so we can fawn over him all day long :] 

Next up - Columbus and his very own YouTube site. For true. 

Multitasker

It's been a hot minute but I'm slowly getting back in the groove of things. In between work, contortion, Vampire Diaries, Sons of Anarchy, Lost, Breaking Bad, and all things zombie, I've been dreaming about scrapbooking nonstop.

A few nights ago, I whipped this up in between shop work whilst watching Vampire Diaries. 

Believe you me, there's more to come. This week even :]

(holla!) :]]

The Big Apple

I love New York. I love the food. I love the energy. I love the seasons. I love the food...

 

I was going to turn this trip into a mini ramen adventure but it didn't quite pan out. There was too much to do and not enough time for noodles. Though in my opinion, Santouka Ramen still holds the trump card. But I'm thankful for Menchanko-Tei because I made a friend!  

Thank you, Sean, for the Pommes Frites, depressing stories, and showing me your favorite secret spot of the city  inthemallthatoverlookstheBrooklynBridgewowdidIjustkillitforyou? :]

To my dear friend, Lisa - I adore you. You're so funny and I love every stinking minute I spend with you. Stalk me on Facebook, even though I don't know how to update :]  xxo

Nails done, hair done, everything did..

True story - I wake up and scroll through Pinterest as I'm brushing my teeth every morning. Some pins make me smile, some pins I breeze through without notice and some pins (reference above) are so funny, I literally laugh out loud mid brush... thank goodness I live alone.

Are you on Pinterest? Are you as obsessed as I am?

Pin me right here.

Shaky Alibi

Back in June when Shaky Alibi opened, I made a mental note to visit one of these days. The early morning after my surgery seemed like the most opportunte time to check it out. 

Shaky Alibi is a tiny little "Coffee Bar and Wafflerie" with a small menu and about three tables (!) with an incredible atmospere (don't worry, they have plenty of bar stools). I love the neighborhood vibe, the decor, the staff.. the waffles! 

These are no ordinary waffles, no siree. They're called Liege waffles and are made to order, served piping hot from the waffleiron at the bar. And the best part? This amazing Belgian spread called speculoos. It's a bazillion times better than Nutella (kind of a bad word around there), much more light and creamy, with a salty caramel semisweet taste to it. SWOON!

If you ever find yourself on Beverly Dr., please do yourself a favor and go. You won't be disappointed. As for me, there's no cause for alarm, but I had wrist surgery yesterday morning. Give me six weeks + two months physical therapy and I'll be good as new.
