Here’s some photos from the second CvsH book signing in the Bay Area. This was in Book Passage in SF.
I talked about my cats, how the blog started, future projects, gave away free posters and then we chatted about cats some more…Thanks to everyone who came!
Oh, and next one will be in Phoenix (Changing Hands) in a couple weeks! RSVP here if you’d like.
Chai delicious-ness (Taken with instagram)
Delicious is right. Two If By Sea. Also my amazing place of work. Life is good. I made it to the table for the last few sips of this beauty.
THAI FOOD, MEXICAN, VIETNAMESE … I DON’T REALLY CARE, AS LONG AS IT HAS CILANTRO IN IT. THAT’S MY THING. I CAN’T GET ENOUGH. I’M A CILANTRO MANIAC.
SERIOUSLY. SOMEONE NEEDS TO LIKE, INTERVENE IN MY LIFE. I THINK I HAVE A PROBLEM.
Someone took the words right out of my mouth.

I spent a beautiful summer-esque September 26th (also my Mom’s birthday!) in the Valley with a wonderful friend. This was probably the busiest summer ever, for myself and a lot of my buddies which made it difficult to spend as much time with them as I would have liked. Jarrett and I made up for it though! 2 double espresso drinks, 5 hours, half a tank of gas and $30 later we were in pickling heaven! We steamed up the kitchen on Stanford St. canning almost 20 jars of spicy green beans and dill pickles! Life is good. Friends are good. Nature is good. The country is good. Happy happy days! Stay tuned to find out what we do with our 30lbs of HAND PICKED (first time ever!) Cortland apples and PEARS!
LEGGINGS ARE NOT PANTS.
I’M NOT BEING A DICK, THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS.
Adorb.
I’m attempting to make some apple jelly today. What other jellies/jams should I try?
Here’s my preserve wish list:
hot pepper jelly
dewberry-blueberry (just the name is great) jam
apple/cardamom jam

I just learned what a GIF even was!
I am so old school guys.
This is the BEST THING IN MY LIFE right now. The best. All over the place.
Sometimes all it takes is the right mood music to make everything ok in my world. Right now, the right tunes are every Corb Lund album on my computer.
This song is a good start though. The Truth Comes Out.
From Zooey, pdgervais and I!
