Us girls at the office have been taking advantage of this twofer...
I should have posted a while ago, but you still have two weeks to enjoy Daphne's 2-for-1 entrees. Hurrah for Greek fast food. I think we have like 8 women going today.

The ultimate burgers at Joe's Cable Car
I've been living in the Bay Area for, what, 3.5 years, and never made it out to Joe's Cable Car until a couple weeks ago. I think I overdid it with the chili -- while tasty, it kind of overpowered the burger. Garry's mushroom burger was much more my speed. THe coffee malt I had was chillicious too!

I just love the elated grin in Lucy's face as she gobbles down her meal of pasta primavera.

This place still feels very much like home.
Few things greener than Harvard Yard in the summertime. Spent a lovely day catching up with people and things... brunch in Beacon Hill, poking around boutiques (kind of took me by surprise how different the styles are here... super prepster! But no sales tax), dark hot chocolate at L.A. Burdick, picking at vintage finds at Oona's, where I used to get costumes for the opera, frozen yogurt, and a walk through the Yard. In all, a good day.

This wedding venue is the bomb diggety.
I'm here in Boston this weekend for a dear childhood friend's wedding (I'm a bridesmaid). This is hands down one of the most stunning wedding venues I've ever seen, very minimalist modern with floor to ceiling windows and grand views of the waterfront/harbor and much of downtown Boston. So excited to see the space (and my beautiful friend) decked out tomorrow for the big day!

At the Bond in Boston
Newly renovated bar at our hotel. Super swanky! Gonna be a pretty
swank weekend all around methinks.

Natalie Merchant: My Skin
Darn disabled embedding. I just replaced it with a different video, but just listen to the song--it's so quietly gorgeous, and the best part comes a full two minutes into the song. I kind of want to get the sheet music and learn it on piano.
I need the darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
Oh, I need this
I need a lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel sweet
The love of my life
Oh, I need this

Interesting short film
I normally ignore stuff that my parents forward me because they are usually hoax-type warnings and powerpoint files of inspirational bible verses paired with nature scenes and cheesy music.
But, this was just a link to a YouTube video, and so my curiosity got the better of me and I clicked. The film is just a tad heavyhanded, but rings rather true. Happy father's day!

Google Reader is srsly the sheeeeet.
I guess I was pretty bad about keeping up with different websites before, but lately there have been more and more blogs and sites that I find myself wanting to keep up with. Even the usual five - garancedore.fr, fashion toast, sea of shoes, newmoonmovie.org, apartmenttherapy.com, have been really hard to check on regular rotation. And then there are the plethora of other fantastic sites that just go ignored and unread.
I'm sure most of you are using it already, being early-adopter types, but in case you aren't, I highly recommend it!
