Best Tokyo Day, Complete with Owl Cafe
Y’all may have gathered that CJ and I recently went to Tokyo and had a simply mah-velous time! While I loved every minute of our trip, Wednesday was definitely the most magical – and it all happened at Ginza. Lunch at Jiro’s That’s right. THE Jiro’s, as in Jiro Dreams of Sushi. It was an […]
Modeling at Sassafras
Let me start by saying, I’ve never modeled anything – ever. (And no, I definitely don’t count my Echo Look photos as modeling!) So when Amy at Sassafras asked me to model some of the new spring clothing last month, I was super flattered, excited, and nervous. It turned out that I had no reason […]

The Cambridge Satchel, a Review
Last month, I began posting about The Handbag Experiment and my search for the perfect bag – which was followed up shortly thereafter with a not-so-glowing review of the Kate Spade Cameron Street Teegan. All I can say is that the internet is a beautiful thing. A very like-minded Meg read my posts, understood my plight, and […]
Wako SF: Oh-My-God Sushi
Sushi-love CJ and I love sushi. Really, really love it. In Seattle, we frequent everything from kaiten to Kashiba Sushi (the other Shiro’s). So on our whirlwind eating tour of San Francisco, our friends, Pam (foodiecow) and Brian, introduced us to one of their favorite local sushi joints: Wako. We had been eagerly anticipating this […]
