Started the weekend with a Mexican style soup: tomatos, onions, anaheim pepper, bell pepper, hominy, and corn. Served with guacamole and ovenbaked tortilla chips.

Ben has been into coconts lately. Pictured here is a “young coconut.” He prefers to the young to the old ones – more milk and easier to eat. I don’t like any coconut. 😛

How does my cat do this? She gets these gaping scabs on her shoulderblades, where I’m pretty sure she can’t reach. Whole sections of hair go missing and it bleeds. I’ve never seen her scratch herself. Last year, when she last had one, our vet thought it was diet-related. But we haven’t changed her eating habits in the past year. Why all of the sudden did she get a large one?

The aforementioned scarf. The colors here are not quite accurate, but close. I love this cable design. It looks complicated but it was super easy.

Ta da!


I’ve worn it almost everyday since I made it. Also note, I’m getting a little better at taming the perm. We’ll have to wait and see what humidity horrors await in SF later this month.
