Dr Suess Does A Garden, I Bring the Flavor

This past weekend I attended my mothers third wedding. It was very pleasant, intimate, and the food was rather amazing. Everyone complemented my taste, as I was the one to devise the menu from the restaurant's overwhelming list of choices. Lets just say I nailed it, and everyone loved everything! 4 courses! Hard to pick out complementary dishes to please every ones palate.

The small ceremony only lasted about six minuets, but we got to hang out in a lovely park for 2 hours taking monotonous pictures. It was really was hard to enjoy the moment with all the picture snapping and posing. The sun was still harsh and hot at 4pm and I found some nice shade to chill in while everyone was running about. For fall the park hosted an abundance of spectacular flora. I was blown away by the smell and color. It was like summer's last big burst of light before the gray and brown sets in. I snapped a picture with my cell phone of a very fall-esq bed of flowers. They were captivating up close, I have no idea what kind they are. I will call them Whoville Dash Daggers! I think on Thursday of this week I will return to the park with a book and a snack. Hopefully the weather is OK, its supposed to actually feel like fall here this week. Maybe a chic jacket sweater combo will happen!

Currently

Location: A small box of a room, inside a bunker like outer box, that is the telecom/ emergency communication dept. aka work :(

Wearing: Thrift find, large collar winter- white hoodie with over sized buttons. Under the warm hoddie; a primo soft cotton T from express in a lovely regal purple, has a graphic Asian medallion detail in gold My favorite work pants (due to their comfort and ability to match everything I own) from Banana Republic SALE! Another thrifty/sale find some ALDO shoes that also match everything due to their black and brown and white coloration.

Reading: Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. Great historical fiction that takes place in a depression era traveling circus. To feel a little bit of summer warmth on these sub zero nights I've also been reading a novel, Last Summer by Michael Thomas Ford. It is rich with Provincetown beachy goodness. Romance and Drama; gay gay gay!

Watching: Project Runway! DID U SEE team Fierce's avant garde creation? BrILZ! Sad Idol auditons are also in the que.

Listening to: M.I.A. Sri Lankian, by way of NYC rapper hipster chic chick. Loving her culture crossing sound. Voice and style very similar to Peaches

Drinking: Always with the water! Trying to cut back on the boozy, such empty calories that are increasing my need to loose weight. ugh

Loving: Any form of moisturizer, for my lips, hands, and ass. Its cold and I'm cracking!

In Not So Living Color


Dead rappers can be so inspirational even years after they've been cap'd. HERE Austin-based artist, Hope Perkins explores the floral nuance between two rhyming icons. Think Frida in south central!
