I attempted a rainbow cake for Caitlin’s birthday and I am so happy with the way it came out. It tasted good, too!

A beautiful day in Malibu. The water was warm enough to swim (though it was rough). Fried seafood was a perfect end to the day. I love how late it stays light now.

This morning I received an email saying that a photo I took (which they found on Flickr) was going to be on a website called Schmap in their guide to LA section. I am representing my old neighborhood of Echo Park. My new neighborhood of Atwater Village didn’t even make the list!

Apartment Therapy LA is one of my favorite home design blogs. It was one of the first things I put in my Google reader when I started collecting blogs to read. I often get behind because there are so many posts. I was going through the backlog when I spotted a very familiar picture of my new apartment. Since this was taken I made curtains for the window. I’ll post some pictures of things soon. I’d hoped to have the apartment ready by now but life got in the way.

Our friend Nick is throwing this tonight. We are helping make the food.

My girlfriends threw me a lovely tea party for my birthday on Tuesday night.

I saw these in the San Francisco airport last week. The artist is JeongMee Yoon from South Korea. I thought they were really cool. You can see more pictures on the artist’s website. Girls in pink and boys in blue. The children are adorable.
