I am soooooo loving this weather. Today it's in the high 60's-low 70's, and there's just the perfect breeze. I have been procrastinating all morning to run, but I will, right after this post!
So yesterday, I only took 2 sets of pictures. Shame on me.
The first, of these wildflowers in my neighborhood. I had to ask my friend, Rita, who was driving, to pull over on the side of a busy road so I can take these pictures. I couldn't quite do it myself when I'm driving by myself, so she was gracious enough to give in.
And we did go to the thrift store, but I didn't get to take photos. I did score some old book from the 60's or so, and one of these days, I will photograph my treasures. I also got a bunch of glass pitchers and bottles for my ongoing limoncello project, and for a summer party I'm hoping to throw this year (since I usually only do a winter holiday party, this should be exciting!).
After the thrift store, we decided to get some sushi. Yum. And, sushi-eating is not complete without sake-drinking. I know you girls do not like sake, but one day, I hope you share this with me again!
Yum.
Then I just spent the evening with Joe, and watched the movie Taken at home.
Today, I get to see a long-lost friend (well, if you consider 7 months long). I cannot wait to see her.
P.S. My pictures are huge because when I post them, I click "X-large" on the box that shows up. That way, you can really see what I'm posting! I like it better that way :)

Beautiful pictures, Mari! I remember our sushi and sake afternoon in Dagupan. :) How did you find the movie "Taken"? Freaky, isn't it? Freaky and scary. I'm never sending my daughter to Europe alone--ever.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kaye! The movie was good--it's so scary, isn't it? Shit like that does happen though! I just didn't understand why they would pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for her (towards the end) when they could just get any girl?? LOL. I really liked it though. The girl's friend totally screwed them because of her stupidity (ultimately herself).
