Last night was the Bouquets to Art gala at the de Young. If you missed that event *wink*, don’t fret! You have through Saturday the 15th to see the floral displays. The museum is open until 5:15 everyday. Members can go from 6-8pm on Wednesday (that’s me!) and they’re also open until 8:45 on Friday.…

Liz is a high schooler headed off on a big adventure: For spring break this year, I will be spending two weeks in Israel and a few days in Egypt. I’m 17 years old, but I don’t like dressing like a teenager. I recently gained 30 lbs, so I am 5′ 2 and 160 lbs.…

Saturday’s trip to Guitar Center resulted in spending way too much money, as such trips always do. I went in to get an amp for my acoustic bass and left with an entirely new set-up. I’ve been practicing on an electric bass at my lesson each week and it was time to get one of…

This was a luxuriously lazy weekend. At the end of last week being so packed with restaurants and bars, I was honestly ready to skip eating out for the next month. On Friday, we met Matt at the climbing gym and did a lot of bouldering. I was exhausted when we left at 7:00. Dinner…

I so, so wish I had the chance to buy this vintage camera poster when it was up for sale in June. The artist, Rod Hunting, only made 100 for sale at $35 each.

I keep forgetting that it is still winter in most of the country. We’ve been so lucky here with sunny days in the 60’s all week. In comparison, it’s 30 degrees in Buffalo right now. Cheryl is going there in a few weeks: My husband and I are going away for a weekend alone in…

San Francisco is so funny sometimes. It really brims with character. The last few days have demonstrated some prime reasons why I love this city: 1. Because a pink-chandeliered night club shares its space with a baja-style taco shack during the day. 2. Because my street smells like orange blossoms all summer long. 3. Because…

Kathi has done a lot of thinking about her style dilemma : I’m a borderline “petite” 5’4″ mom of 2 (2 1/2 and 5 yrs old), 38 years old and I’ve lost my fashion way (I’m a pretty good editor, I know what I like when its on me, but not terrific about coming up…

A friend of mine recently came into a great deal of cinnamon by accident. 36 bags worth thanks to a Amazon miscalculation. I took a couple bags with the idea of making cinnamon ornaments (Did you also make them in preschool?). It’s too bad valentine’s day already passed, a spicy cinnamon heart would be cute.…

Want your next cocktail party to rock? Of course you do! All you need to do is pop in a DVD of the Rolling Stone’s Rock and Roll Circus from 1968 and turn it up loud. It is bizarre and infectious, with their hits played to a crowd decked out in matching ponchos and hats…
