champagnetoasts:
Y’all know something funny? Trying to write a recipe incorporating the word “dump”. You see, I’m not much of a measurer when it comes to cooking and refer to my ingredients more in this manner
dump in a handful of cheese
mix in a serving of breadcrumbs
a heaping spoon full of crushed garlic
This. Over a salad with avocado and a glass of wine. Call it a day.

impromptu date night
there are really always the best. after coming home from a good run out towards the Richmond (its freezing out there, btw) sushi domo was suggested and I was in the shower and ready to roll before he could say another word.
Best sushi I have had. Order anything, it will all blow your mind. But especially order the Alpha Roll.

Start-up Lytro Aims to Sharpen Focus of Entire Camera Industry
A Mountain View start-up is promising that its camera, due later this year, will bring the biggest change to photography since the transition from film to digital. Ordinarily, I’m turned off by such hyperbole, but after having seen a demo from Lytro, that statement seems downright reasonable. The breakthrough is a...

The Almond patent Sam Edelman slingbacks.
seen on sale for a hot $59.99 at Nordstrom.com and could not be passed up. I am kicking myself now for not getting a second pair of the Flamingo ones, which I have worn everyday since getting and are beaten to pulp because of it. Also wished I would have gotten the black. Damn it.

Your jeans are too tight
After reaching the grand the age of 23, when you are out of college and start actually dealing with adults who are confident and independent, you realize that the most important thing about clothes is not the label, or hot you think it makes you look, cause it doesnt. The most important thing is the FIT.
And one of the more crucial things you learn to deal with is your ass.. Specifically, you...
Kickstarter - The Magnetic SnapStylus for iPad →
Just got a magnetic stylus for the iPad! I am kin of obsessed with kickstarter….instead of going to the apple store and being attacked by monochrome tshirts to spend $40 on a simple product, I dropped $10 and helped a smart kid in Wisconsin launch his product.

A few things
Kim Kardashian // June 16
I find the color of this Birkin positively wonderful,
Kim’s shorter hair makes a big difference…I think she looks older;
this outfit is okay, a million times better than the shit she was in yesterday:
Im pretty sure it was stated before, but how on earth can this gross sack of money make things look so cheap. Seriously....
Things I don't appreciate on grown women:
haygirlhay:
Heart-shaped jewelry.
And I say that as the owner of a couple of (very tarnished and dusty) sterling Tiffany baubles.
Co-signed.
a fabulous engagement/honeymoon gift.

I must go on a run.
I think this. Everyday.
I am going to try harder to realize this.
Last night was fantastic. Me and KB hit the headlands, and although it was the furthest from the most difficult headlands run we have ever done, it was top-o-the charts in terms of quality. We had both been on a lazy streak (me not running for 2 weeks, her just having 3-5 ciggs on the drive home from work), so it was an eye...
