I can't help it...here's one more of my gorgeous sweetheart!!!
This is how Harry should look, wouldn't you agree?!

Love type....last night Rachel asked me what design blogs I follow...etc...I just stumble upon things as they present themselves....I saw the "daily drop cap" from my buddy Gaelyn's blog, then again on this new type blog I have at the bottom of my designy links: Upscale Type...anyhoo...this is such a great little site! It's designed so you can easily drop the code into your blog editing field. In order for the drop cap to successfully read as an actual drop cap, you must use enough sentences to flow your copy below the drop cap proper...otherwise it just looks like an oddly spaced large letter.

My latte bowls

I bought these bowls from a little kitchen supply store in Paris last fall. I wish I had bought a ton.....they were only 2 or 3 euros each!

My dreamy boyfriend

made me dinner + poured me a drink (or two) + let me eat his blood orange sorbet + rented me Alice in Wonderland + I fell asleep on his chest right after this:



but I woke up to this:



then I fell back to sleep again, and woke up to the BSG new caprica-rescue-episode with the really bad starbuck hair extensions.

Dans ma salle de bain

4:30pm on a Sunday. White wine + A Scanner Darkly + bath. Why not!

Dans Ma Cuisine

St. Agur Salad w/hot pink onions + BBQ Quorn pizza w/smoked gouda....I scared up a walnut pie using the Cook's illustrated Full-proof pie dough recipe Jill sent me. Sully texted me this from his bedroom after ingesting said pie: Pie rulez ultimate fuck









Walnut pie is a nice alternative to pecan pie...don't get me wrong, pecans are lovely....I just find that the meaty savory aspects of the walnut stand up better against the sweetness of the filling.



Wasabi grilled vegan cheese w/hot pink onions (stole this idea from Seattle's Bleu....where I nabbed the idea for mediterranean nachos. If in Seattle, you should go...check out this -->menu )


Left over home made pesto pasta scramble

Oh, Courtney.
