Gay It Forward

To beat the mid-week blues yesterday, some friends and I went to one of my all-time favorite sushi spots. (I know..twice in one week!) We grubbed on tons of yummy rolls, and downed copious amounts of $1 sake.  We then ventured downtown for hump day happy hour for killer margs and humongous pieces of mediocre cake.  


We also started trending the best saying ever, "Gay It Forward," since I have the privilege of being friends with one of the sweetest gays in the world!  So if you're on Twitter, please help us continue the movement and remember to #gayitforward.  This summer's off to a great start, and I can't wait for the adventures to continue! 

I had the day off today and got an incredible amount done...slept in, had a True Blood marathon, took a nap, and ate pizza.  I know, it's tiresome just thinking about it!

Tomorrow I'm going to a sure-to-be marvelous hilltop party at Ali's house, and I have to work this weekend in San Francisco.  For the fourth, we're going to a nearby city we usually go to every year to watch fireworks, and I can finally get my hands on this drool-worthy ice cream from Blue Bunny! I hope you all have a wonderful & safe holiday weekend filled with cocktails and sparklers :)

A Few Things...

Here are a few things around the blog/internet world that have recently caught my eye-

Bailey's heartwarming and excruciatingly real story over @ Peppermint Bliss

Some exciting LA restaurants I can't wait to try on our trip next month...Here, here, & here.

Are you as excited about the newest Gatsby film coming out next year?  Isla Fisher was just cast as Myrtle.  I'm rather obsessed with the 1974 version, myself.

I've been a long-time fan; finally this fashion staple gets some street cred.

I am freakishly and disturbingly thrilled about The Royal Wedding...

I'm in desperate need of a serious closet overhaul.  Some items I'm currently lusting over:

A punchy maxi, adorable floral romper, & this sexy little onesie.

Hope you're all enjoying your mid-week obligations! Only 3 days left until our beloved weekend returns.

SJ Eats: A Movable FAIL.

Last Saturday, I was uber excited to try this rendezvous of food trucks (my fave) called SJ Eats: a Movable Feast.  It's a shame my anxiety set in before we stepped out of the car, greeted by this:

Yeah, ummm...no, gracias.

So we headed out to our tried and true favorite brunch spot, Bill's, where I sunk my teeth into this bit of strawberry nutella heaven:

Ain't she a 'beaut?

And that, my friends, is how it's done.

Sigh.  I heart weekends.

The bf even convinced me fishing was a good idea (anything's a good idea after a feeding frenzy of such epic proportions; one is incapable of objecting to much)

Can you tell I have a thing for rusty locks?

Until we meet again, SJ Eats.  I hope that next time around, you won't be so ill-equipped.
