holiday

so we celebrated memorial day yesterday in the good ol’ u.s. of a. as i’ve mentioned before, my little bro is visiting from southern california, so me and my beau decided to treat him to a little barbeque in tilden park! we made hamburgers seasoned with cumin and green onions and other delicious things and we packed up a cooler with pbr for our picnicing excursion. it was a lovely day, which was a very nice surpise after the freezing cold weekend! oh, schizophrenic bay area weather!

me and the beau, sweatin over the grill.
cheeseburgers. yum!

 

my little brother in his dr. pepper ringer shirt and vintage 501s.
my brother (devin) found a polaroid camera at an estate sale over the weekend, but it has a strange habit of spitting out the last 4 pictures of the reel. not cool considering that polaroid film runs about $1 per photo. sigh. but we got a few good shots with it, because my camera battery was dead! also, sigh.in other news, i want a kitty! devin convinced me to take him to the animal shelters in the area, and while i can’t possibly accomodate a dog (but oh! i want one), i can manage a kitten. i want a teeny tiny black cat. though i’m not sure what my landlord will think of that.

photo credits: all photos taken by devin, except the last one. i took that one.

  1. aw looks like you had a fab bbq!

    you should definitely get a cat (or two!). i got my two from a friends farm…they were semi feral but have turned out to be really sweet boys (sure you’ve seen pics of them on my chictopia!)

    love your blog by the way!

  2. I have 2 burmese kittens and they are awesome!! I love them to death!! two is easier than 1…and I don't feel as guilty leaving them alone.
