FOUND: fam on the mount

I smell a Christmas card.... Though it is unlikely my mom will allow this. No matching outfit in sight.

Mom perfectly prepared a heritage turkey, brined and all.


Our carver was ready with sharpened knife....



Wait dad, I don't think it is quite dead yet.... Let me take care of this!

FOUND: magnetic poetry board

I have these magnetic words magnetized on my fridge, however they haven't seen much action since 2003, when I bought them for my first fridge in my first apartment off campus.



Apparently my mom has a set of her own, and it seems much inspiration blossoms when I'm country based.

FOUND: napkin clothespins

Every guest at the family farm gets their own clothespin for their stay. So you can keep track of which cloth napkin is yours. A very country thing to do....

When you come, you will get one to write your name on... Once a guest, always a napkin pin!

FOUND: NYC twilight

Came and left with the rising sun.... Waving hello and goodbye.



Twilight: a state of uncertainty

Leaves me wondering if I actually pull the trigger on a NYC jaunt.

You've made it, you can stop trying now.

FOUND: thanksgiving day eve

There was a tear in my eye when I realized I will not be hitting up rosewood tavern with my HP eastsiders and Casa with my westsiders.... In the empty city of angels.

This year, I'm off to the Ojai Farm.... where we will likely be wild turkey hunting. Just like the pilgrims did. Dibs on not having to defeather and/or degiblet!

FOUND: rose bowl flea market

After working all Saturday... I needed to treat myself to random useless xchotkis. So I went all the way down to the rosebowl to score some sick rubbish.





A wooden tool box


A shoe mold






A blue toolbox... To put all the tools in my life.


My Retail Therapist charges only $50/morning.... Not bad, feeling better already.

FOUND: razoring

This is what you find mysteriously in your bag after a questionable night razor scooting/ bar hopping on the Westside.

I'm bringing the razor scooter back. Don't knock it until you try it. Seriously.

Think about it, when you arrive at the bar. No parking necessary, just fold it up and backpack it.... Voila, eat that skateboard & bike.

LOST: ST productions

It isn't so much Lost as Missed.

It's my last day.

I will miss all of my friendos.

It rained today, I think the sky was crying for me.


It's incredibly bittersweet. Bitter it is ending, sweet I'm making an important leap that starts on Monday.

So hard saying goodbye to my fellow shanty-ers.

So long, farewell.... Until next time!

FOUND:taiko

Ventured as far West as Brentwood to meet my friend Lindsay, and her friend Aleema.



So much to recommend here, starting with the eggplant.... Lindsay said, "it is so good that even the anorexics in high school couldn't avoid it."

Follow it with the spicy tuna, albacore tuna with crispy onions....



The fish was fresh, could it be because we are that much closer to the sea..? Nah.



The mud was on the wall, no seriously, on the wall.

All in all, this was my kind of joint. High-end stripmall restaurant.


Most especially the sake was. The bomb.
