i believe they were called "yuppies" back in the 80's... those Young.Urban.Professionals who were often seen briskly walking through downtown in their power suits and reebok lace-ups.well fast forward twenty-something years and here we are, breaking out the tennie's on our lunch break. we are well aware of the fact that this is a fashion DON'T, but there are somethings that you are willing to overlook when you can combine a) sunshine b) 2.5 miles of exercise c) a trader joe's run all within the course of an hour. some call it a power hour, but we like to call it brilliant.
week 23. baby! you are the size of a large mango. ...and you do the tango in my belly.hope you're having fun in there because you sure are starting to take up a lot of space.loving you more than anything.
music fascinates me. it has moved me ever since i was a little girl. so much is felt, expressed, and experienced through music. this is only amplified when you get the opportunity to see a band perform live, stripped of all remastering and editing.tonight i got the pleasure of seeing rock-n-roll legends fleetwood mac. i have to say, for a bunch of 60 year olds these guys put on an AMAZING show. not only are they uber-talented musicians, but they are a group of rockstars who have had their highs & lows and have so much history and emotional attachment that it oozes from them. couple of notes:- lindsay buckingham and stevie nicks' history/chemistry/tension/torrid love for each other is insane.- mick fleetwood is beyond rad & one of the best percussionists i've seen.- stevie nicks has still got it.- mick fleetwood is beyond rad...wait, did i already say that? i heart him.seeing them really makes me wish i had been in the city during san francisco's musical hay-day. what a trip it must have been.
week 23. hi baby... you are now as heavy as a large mango... and if we could weigh you, you'd be one whole pound! i swear that sometimes i can feel my tummy growing bigger, but it doesn't matter...it is so satisfying knowing that you're growing happily inside me. daddy and i feel you moving around a lot more and we can sometimes even see you moving and pushing from inside my tummy. it is crazy cool.momma is still trying to stay active, but i'm starting to feel winded a lot sooner than i normally do. i can only imagine what's to come in the weeks ahead. xoxo.
i am a fan of street art. i think it takes imagination, skill, and the use of all sorts of creative thinking to execute correctly.here is a wall down in the mission that made from cut paper that is then plastered to the brick wall. so intricate. so delicate. and a true exercise in both talent and patience. a testament to what can happen when the right side of your brain is unleashed.
in a state as health conscious as california, it is good to see donuts making a bit of a resurgence. i am all for wheatgrass and whole wheat bagels, but every once in a while you have to indulge your inner craving and enjoy the calorie-ridden goodness of a (enter favorite type of donut here) donut.meet dynamo donut. http://dynamosf.com/ not your average old-fashion/sprinkles/sugar donut maker. these are "gourmet" donuts and are made with only the most fresh, organic, and local ingredients available. we missed maple bacon donut day, but we did sample FOUR of the daily flavors: meyer lemon huckleberry, vanilla bean, caramel/fleur de sel, and stawberries & creme. yikes...these were some tasty cakes, especially strawberries & creme. To top it off, they served stumptown coffee, which i found during my stay at the Ace Hotel- Portland. so good!!!http://www.stumptowncoffee.com/locations/ace glutonous temptations and a really delicoius way to start your saturday morning.
