Our weekend RV trip to the Grand Canyon was so much fun! For a big hole in the ground, it sure is exciting: We flew into Vegas and rented the RV from there. I got to eat at Port of Subs twice on the road – so tasty – and even brought home a souvenir…

The Memphis gang is getting together again!  We’re meeting Jackie, Pierre, Shane and Margaret in Vegas next week weekend for a weekend RV roadtrip. We’re still debating between Zion and the Grand Canyon; but dressing fabulously in theme is already agreed upon. I might wear this out for a slice of bumbleberry pie: Shirt – The…

I splurged on this enamel and rhinestone snake necklace at H&M on Saturday.  It’s from the Anna Dello Russo collection (editor at large for Vogue Japan, I had to look it up on wikipedia) and came in the loveliest packaging. Obviously, a little over the top! With a blend between asian and southwestern styles, I can…

Good thing we managed to move apartments last weekend! This weekend was packed full of visiting family.  On Friday night, Rob picked me up after work and we drove to meet my parents at their hotel in the Marina.  A casual dinner together at Plant to catch up before my mom left on her trip…

I went to the most amazing party last week!  Figuring out my new role as VP this summer has been pretty stressful and demanding – this event with fancy Silicon Valley investors was an excellent perk.  It was the day before we moved apartments and a bit of a blur. Held at the California Academy…

Columbus Day weekend is traditionally San Francisco’s finest. It’s like 4th of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day combined! Our late summer hot weather kicks in, Fleet Week arrives with sailors and the airshow, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass fills the park, Castro and North Beach have neighborhood festivals. Plus, this year we had two post-season baseball…

I somehow survived two seven hour strategy meetings, a firing and an apartment move this week. Stay tuned for more details soon. Here’s a preview of the living room, complete with boxes, piles of books and ugly curtains that came with the place.

I heard this weekend was lovely and warm, classic San Francisco fall weather…but we spent it inside packing for the move. Our routine boiled down to a rotation of packing, panicking about how much stuff we have, driving to the thrift store to make big donations, hunting for more boxes and sitting, sacked out, on the couch…

I hosted the LAC party last night – the last at our loft apartment.  It was a really fun, easy and productive party.  To start, I stocked up on a myriad of produce and supplies at farmer’s market. All of this was about $10. First, we peeled and started roasting the tomatillos and jalapenos for…

I set up this impromptu stationery tutorial for Jackie and Pierre’s wedding planning last weekend! It can be tough to decide which kind of wedding invitations are right for your event.  Roughly from cheapest/most DIY to most expensive: 1. Linoleum block stamp, 2. Gocco screenprinting, 3. Thermography, 4. Engraving, 5. Letterpress, 6. Wood.  (They went with Gocco!)
