squirrel pie and a work outfit

• sweater: erge [ideeli sale]
• black dress: american apparel
• black tank top: kenneth cole
• tights: macys
• shoes: chinese laundry [dsw]

frankly, the sweater was quite frikkin odd. cowl-neck back with a not hood type collar thing. very comfy though, made entirely of bamboo cotton. ill probably sew the collar into a hood for more practical wear. all day the collar kept falling off since it didnt really have any shape... and obviously i couldnt zip it up all the way over my face or as a huge turtleneck as the cowl back then looked like i had fallen through a barbed wire fence. not so great look in fact.

halloween prep!

hello kitty dress!

ears and bow

good eats

but not like alton brown. he annoys me. scientific facts and insights are entertaining on their own and do not need to be fancified and elaborated upon in badly acted scenarios. but i digress.

served at the wedding we played in on saturday.

feta, walnut, raspberry pear salad. with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and edible orchid. which i did not eat.

my amazing steak complete with rosemary sprig, mashed potatoes, gravy, and grilled veges

kai-wen's vegetarian meal-roasted zucchini, squash, portabello, and fresh mozzarella with a balsamic reduction

leah's chicken with mushrooms, israeli couscous risotto, and grilled veges

and for something completely different, organic bug shaped mac & cheese out of a box. mmmm
