weekend fun

  • Aug. 10th, 2009 at 3:11 PM
this was a jam packed weekend of fun activities. friday night a few of our friends got togther for karaoke, i sang love will keep us together by captain and tennille, my friend reuben sang cracklin' rosie, and laura sang walkin' on sunshine. saturday i spent the day keeping laura company as she packed and that night a group of us went to Lucha VaVoom (mexican wrestling and burlesque). it was a lot of fun, very theatrical and over the top.

sunday day, i met with kiki to go to an angel game. it was so hot in the sun (and on the seats) but the view was fantastic and live games are a lot of fun. i wound down my weekend at jasmine's, she made a delicious roasted squash risotto and we (zack, david, jazz and i) played a few rounds of scattergories.

i know it's been a loooooong time since i last blogged, but i finally have fun things to share!

about 2 1/2 weeks ago, i decided i wanted to get back into running and finally sign up for a race. it turned out that cypress was having their annual 5k/10k race july 25th, and my cousin kiki was interested in training to run the race too.

here we are race day, we had to wake up at 6am and were signed up and waiting by 7am.


my goal was to run the 10k in less than 70min, my finish time was 67min. luckily, the race started early enough so heat wasn't much of an issue, still, it was nice to be given a popsicle at the finish line.

following the race, kiki and i celebrated with some bloody marys and a trip to the beach. the same evening i met with jazz, david, and david's friend zack at father's office, later jazz and david made us a delicious dinner and we stayed in to watch a movie.


if you read my sister's blog you know that every sunday she and david wake up early and go to the hollywood farmer's market. since i spent the night, i got to join.

i love the farmer's market

 
my farmer's market purchases were juicy grape tomatoes and some feta cheese with sundried tomatoes. all in all i had a lovely and eventful weekend. i have a ton of projects to dive into, and i promise to update more!

weekend sewing

  • Mar. 12th, 2009 at 12:50 PM
i'm feeling inspired this weekend to get some serious crafting done, so i'm sharing some of my project ideas.

my friend veronica's birthday is here again (i made her a bag last year) and this year i plan on making her this very cute ipod/camera cozy (via sew, mama, sew) with a matching tote bag.


and these super delicious looking cookies from the blog a friend to knit with.


next on my to-sew list is making a little gift for my friend laura. she just started a sewing class, so for a little encouragement (and because i plan on making myself one) i'm making this adorable pin cushion (it was featured on etsy's how-to tuesdays).


lastly, i brought my sculpture project home to finish over the weekend, there is so much detail on the purse, it's all a bit daunting.
le sigh, should be a nice weekend.
