My first real Illustrator project. Simple but took awhile since I don't really know how to use the program.

Lemon Tart at Tartine
I think this is my new favorite dessert there. We stopped by wanting hot chocolate to satisfy a chocloate craving, and got this to go with it. The hot chocolate? Not so great. The lemon tart was amazing though. Highly recommend it.

This American Life Season 2
So if you know me then you know I am obsessed with This American Life. I pretty much am listening to it whenever: I am at the gym, I am cleaning my apartment or I am walking any distance alone. I don't have Showtime though so I never get to watch the show. But on the latest podcast, Ira Glass was saying that season 2 of the show is now available on DVD. AND it contains the live movie version thingee they did last year that I missed. I want this, and it is a whole lot more affordable than that desk. Too bad when I went to Barnes and Noble today the lady told me it isn't out yet. LIAR!

Etsy Finds
I realized the best way to find things on Etsy is to find one thing I like, and then check out that person's favorite sellers, and then find something there, and look at that person's favorite sellers, and then... you get the idea. That is how I found all of this stuff:
ok, so I'm a little late in the game on this, but I still really like these, plus they are letterpress.
Obama/McCain found here and Biden/Palin found here.
I like this print. Plus I have those shoes in black. I don't know if I should admit that though.
I have been having a weird infatuation with tea towels lately. But how awesome is this one?
or this one, very appropriate for a British husband who actually makes me a cup of tea every morning. If only I could replace "brew" with "cuppa".

I don't like bikinis.
I do like a good one piece though. Anthropologie has some good ones:
(but really, even though that blue one is super cute, I think I'd feel a little uncomfortable on the beach with a turtleneck/scarf bathing suit. )

Not food
I am loving the Sundance Catalog.
Awesome blanket:
Very cool towels. I love the stitching, and that they look like blankets:
And amazing furniture. This would solve our storage issues:

...And a little more eating to do
Adding this to my "foods to make" list. Looks like a perfect Sunday-night-with-leftovers-into-the-week meal.
