Living in San Francisco, Rob and I try to be good little environmentalists. We recycle, we buy organic food, we walk to work and take public transportation. Don’t be too impressed, it comes really easily in this green city! There’s one environmental thing we do that I’m really proud of: Rob and I don’t use…

Diane Keaton is just one the best things ever. Innovative dresser, very genuine, turtleneck-lover, firmly anti-plastic surgery and hilarious. I watched Something’s Got to Give in HD over the weekend and fell in love with her all over again. It seems that I can’t watch any of her movies without promising myself that I’ll rent…

Jane is finishing up dental school and looking to reward herself with a new handbag: I have a small challenge, I’m looking for an essential piece, not necessarily an entire outfit- although one could always be displayed alongside it for kicks. 🙂 I’m in dental school, but am beyond most of the coursework and am…

Sara is visiting California this week and we’re meeting today for lunch. For special lunches, it doesn’t get much better than table at the Palace Hotel’s Garden Court restaurant.

The Castro Ace Hardware is run by Transylvanians and is full of hidden…

I love weekends that are full of very little! Rob and I had a quiet movie night at home on Friday night. We ate leftover enchiladas and made a dent in the leftover dishes from the party. Major sleep in on Saturday morning followed by even more reading in bed. When I finally did roll…
