Moment Jars

As 2009 is coming to a close, reflect on the moments that mattered to you and put your moment in a moment jar.

Renegade! Part 1

So two Saturdays ago, StephaWu and I ventured off to the city for the Renegade Craft Fair. It was at the Fort Mason Center. We had some angry moments in the parking lot that require F-bomb dropping when a very rude man stole our parking. Uhh I guess he didn't get the memo, but craft fairs are fun-filled events that make 20-something females coo like babies. Gosh.









Slight moment of bewilderment (word of the day, ok fine, word of my day).







Loved this booth. Bananasaurus Rex (tight name) make re-usable snack bags. See the one with the candy canes in it? Plus I love the little plants in the mugs. She uses recycled, vintage, and rescued materials. Loves it.





Sprout Studio had some super cute accessories, like vintage hairpins and necklaces. I really loved those hairpins. Defs should've gotten them. Dammit.



Love this poster from Ork Posters.





I think I first saw these in a magazine, but aren't these ceramics but rae dunn amazing? These aren't even the best ones. There were these fortune cookies and love plates and tons of French words.



You know what, I just have to include them. These are off her esty shop.









Um I kinda want to get married just for this.

Post X-Mas

Geez, Christmas came by super fast. Now I need to catch up on my Christmas posts before it's Christmas 2010. I'll try my best.

So I went to my Godmother's house the weekend before Christmas. Had some delicious food and family fun. Umm have you heard of Bananagrams? Soo much fun, which reminds me, I should go pick up a set.





The famous Chow potato salad.



Godmother's mango salsa.



Peanut sauce and guacamole. I thought the avocado seed was a tea egg. Haha.



Shrimp. I didn't take any pictures of the Korean barbeque because, honestly, I ate it all. Yes, all of it.



Aww family. Everyone tells me I look like my grandma.



My cousin-in-law brews his own beer. Pretty tight right. Too bad it wasn't ready to drink yet. Next time for sure.

Lonny #2

I love these little tips sprinkled throughout the issue.



Lonny is brought to us by the same people behind the long lost and loved magazine Domino. Now Lonny is here to fill that void.

Cool Thing of the Day

Check out this amazing before and after I found at Design*Sponge. Isn't it awesome? I totally want one. In fact, I don't mind living in one of those!

Merry Christmas!

Wishing you all a happy and joyous holiday season! Happy Holidays!

Gotta be PC about this kind of stuff.



Ehh, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! JOYEUX NOEL! FELIZ NAVIDAD!

Land's End Canvas

Check out Land's End Canvas.

I have never really thought that Land's End was anything more than a section at Sears, which I haven't ever really shopped at. But I'm definitely impressed with this little sub-collection they've got going on. It does remind me of J.Crew and I still feel that their price range is a little high, but it's a good option.

Some of my picks:

Bargain!

I love coats. I actually have way more than I can fit in my closet. Well these Kenneth Cole coats are on sale on ideeli today!

Tartine in the Park

Down Guerro, is this place. No signs. No nothing. "Are you sure this is it?"



But we are here! Steph and I went on a mini adventure fueled by our aspirations of being a foodie.





One of these days, I will come back for you.











We took our neat little brown bag and walked down to the street to Dolares Park before we went to Renegade (which I will post about later). It was 11 on a Saturday but it seemed pretty empty.









"This doesn't taste like carmel." Uhh my Creme Brulee Latte. Haha.



Oooh. What's inside?



The most delicious bread pudding ever! I didn't even know I liked bread pudding but it was in this huge baking dish with all these bananas neatly laid out on top. I had to try it. Great idea! It was made with this chocolate chip brioche and bananas. My favorite combination, btdubs. Remember my banana and chocolate chip bread?



Why hello Morning Bun. I am still unsure about this. It has cinnamon, orange zest, and tons of sugar on top. It's flaky but not sticky. It's a mystery.

Edit: Read about our morning at Steph's tumblr.
