TODAY!

Well, this isn't from today. This is actually from April so it's pretty old but hey! I am proud to announce that I have eaten an entire double down. Half with Dan, the other half with Joe (on a separate occasion). I will probably never eat one again because a) they're incredibly expensive and b) saltyyyyy. Yikes!

Guess who went to the 50th State Fair? This girl!





Dan and his sister are the cutest!



I mean look at this! Even though she got grass in it somehow she still managed to be as cute as a kitten!







Deep fried twinkies! Sad there were no oreos left :(

Anyway, I didn't get motion sickness! I was horrified on the Inverter. Carnival rides are so yucky! :(



Dan won me a dog thing. Yay! His sister kind of nabbed the rest of the dolls, which I think I'm alright with. Smurfette! I should've took a photo. Anyway-- my next baking project is caramel almond tarts!

I took Dan to Little Village a few weeks ago--









Note to self: Avoid Chinatown on First Friday. Really. It's just that awful now.

"A Drinking Song"

Wine comes in at the mouth
and love comes in at the eye;
that's all we shall know for truth
before we grow old and die.
I lift my glass to my mouth,
I look at you, and I sigh.

W.B. Yeats

(i want to go back here!)

best day ever

...immediately followed by a pretty not-good day.

But before that, I'd like to announce that I totally kicked some flea ass and am bug-free!



Told ya they didn't know what was coming!



Yesterday was perfect! Slept in until past noon before getting breakfast at Soul. It was my first time! It was super awesome. Total itis food. Dan had this pretty sweet kalua pork sandwich that I didn't take a photo of. Here are my bbq spareribs! Sitting atop collard greens and some vegetarian chili.



I think my favorite part about soul was the cornbread, though. Holy jeebus, glorious cornbread. Then Dan and I went to the Humane Society. Kittens! So happy! Really wanted to adopt this one fuzz ball on the basis that I imagine he'd feel amazing sleeping on my face. Had to pass, though. Then we got my bike (which has been tuned up and rides AMAZINGLY!!) and rode to Waiola. Lihing & Lilikoi forever!

Then the sort of shitty part of the day. Watching Super-8, which was the biggest bullshit JJ has pulled to date. I mean, I should've figured it'd be some Shyamalan-esque venture with some super hyped monster thing and some endearing scenes cut throughout, not to mention some major continuity errors. Typical!

But anyway! Biked home. Ate pizza and drank beer and had mallow pop. Pretty perfect!

Today I laid around and was lazy all day. Napped more than I should. Babbled more than I should. Then accidentally ingested something that made me break out in hives. Now I'm laying in bed typing this because the hives are on my sunburn from the day before and everything is a giant swollen painful burning itching mess.

Oh well.
