go marcel


i love top chef. i hated sam. what a jerk, but he should have made it to the finals with marcel, my favorite to win.i can't believe the show put ilan through to the finals. marcel should be top chef because his dishes have all looked amazing and his overall knowledge of food seems far superior than that of ilan the line cook. marcel happens to be from bainbridge island where my friends leslie and pat live. go marcel.
our murder of crows












this time of year, every year since we've been in sacramento crows will migrate to roost at this grouping of trees right outside our house. it's pretty amazing. i wish i could capture it closer in a photo. caw~caws fill the air and at some moments(the ones that i miss as my flash is recharging!) there are hundreds of birds over head making the entire sky filled with flying polka dots.

so this a a ceramic piece we bought the saturday night we went to see jonathan richman. we were told that the doors opened at 6pm for the show. not. the venue was right across the street from our favorite little gallery in sacramento,the toyroom. it's kinda like a really small and, wishes it could be la luz de jesus gallery, where i used to work.it is from the art wonderland exhibition which chronicles recent artwork from Short Center North’s visionary artists who live with developmental disabilities.
