Hello Everybody!!

It’s Five things time again. Yes, time to see the collection of random things I’ve amassed over the week and documented on my phone. Off we go:

(No. 10: Everything & Nothing. My new perfume acquisition)

Smells like sweet orange, pressed petals, desert moss and tea leaves. So unique.

(A new drink discovery)

Almond water- essentially an Afghan dessert in a glass. Delicious!

(World’s tiniest Gummy Bears)

Courtesy of one of my students. Straight from their own Halloween loot. They know they’re my favorite. ♥

The jalapeño infused”Rosa Picante” on the right, from Redwood Room.

(And a bit of silliness)

The above gif is my general reaction to a complement. I am an unabashed dork. Just saying.

Happy Halloween eve everyone! (If that’s even a thing) Seems like the holidays are in full swing, and the pumpkins have taken over. They’re everywhere. In your lotion, in your beer. I could do a whole post on it. Someday soon!

Here’s this week’s “Five Things”:

If you’re wondering, I do have magpie-like tendencies.

(Tazo “Rest” Tea)

One of my before bedtime favorites. With lavender & rose. Yum!

And…a little ballerina cake-topper. Something tells me she will make other appearances here in future.

Just an amusing observation. Forgive my scary hand in this photo.

IMG_0494(Speaking of Pumpkins: Meet Pumpkin Mumkin)

My latest Lush acquisition. He has a little licorice stem, chocolate chip eyes, and makes loads of orange blossom-scented bubbles. Trouble is, he’s too cute for his own good and I can’t bring myself to use him!

(Audrey Hepburn. Dancing. Enough said.)

Oh, hello everybody! Five special things from my life for this week:

Hey there, little San Francisco!

Simple cake with stone fruit. So very European, reminds me of my grandmother. This is one of my favorite recipes!

(Ummm…best cake topper ever.)

Speaking of weddings, has anyone not yet been to #myfriendsaremarried ? Because it’s also the best thing ever.

(Mango Pinkberry + Strawberries + Mochi + Coconut+ Hawaii= Love)

I have a bit of a Pinkberry problem.

And lastly:

That is all.

Hello All! It’s time for Five Things…Wednesday? It doesn’t have as nice of a ring to it as Five Things Friday, but it’s a start.

And, because it’s been one of those weeks, we’re going to start with this:

IMG_0444(Prosecco & a Garden Gimlet. Because we’re classy broads.)

slide_284089_2285020_free(One of my favorite quotes ever. I believe…)

IMG_0363(My new favorite hat. I will be a hat person this fall.)

And yes…I am aware the colors clash horribly, but sometimes you have to take a selfie when separated from your friends in what seems to be the world’s largest H&M. How else are you going to show them the cool things you find?!

puppy!

(And a puppy. My puppy. Someone just needs to go find him for me.)

Gotta love those brachycephalic dogs.

Hello All!

Today’s post is inspired by the lovely Cupcakes and Cashmere, a blog I avidly follow that’s the ideal combination of LA style and simplicity. Every week, I’ll feature five things that make me smile. Straightforward enough right? Let’s get to it!

(Jose Gonzales- Heartbeats)

I love love love this video. Something right out of child’s imagination, but even better because it features lovely San Francisco.

(Beautiful little IKEA candle holder, now doubling as a home for my favorite jewelry)

IMG_0268

(Dahlias. Many many Dahlias from the local Farmer’s Market. )

IMG_0257

(Vivienne Westwood shoes)

Yes, a beautiful impulse purchase. 100% recycled material & they smell like bubblegum.  Seriously…..smell them. The adult equivalent of jellies.

(My most favorite, Buttercup)

I have recently dubbed her “Peanut Buttercup,” as this seems most appropriate for her size. Loving life, obviously.
