Life is heavy so here's to fluff.
Colin & I went to the LA County Fair last week and it was amazing. We went to two petting zoos (wherein I met this charming baby potbelly friend!!), saw pig races, a chinese acrobat performance, ate some yummy and huge cheese/veggie-smothered baked potatoes, split a funnel cake, went in a fun house, went down one of those giant slides (a first for me!), and got on some crazy scary fun rides. It was a great day and I really love my beanbrain.
On Sunday we went to Huntington Beach with love_adhesive for goddessofsp's birthday bonfire. C & I spent most of our time by the water instead of near the bonfire and had a pretty heavy conversation that has kind of been continued all week. I don't really want to say too much about it because I still feel very unsettled with all of it but it's been rough. I really just want us to be ok.
I framed/hung my prints and my jewelry tree. They all look really great. If you click on the photo and go to it's flickr page, there are notes with more details.

We got our new stove/oven. Colin made me dinner last night - spinach casserole and tomato garlic bread. They were both really fantastically good and I totally recommend them. Speaking of food, I have ricotta and some red potatoes that I'd like to use soon. What can I make? No meat please. Also, I'm excited about baking yummy things like these or these.
Two of my favorite things right now:
01. Go Fug Yourself
02.
These fantastic german wafers.
ETA: a whole list!
What are two of your favorite things?
