love and cupcakes























I've always loved valentine's day and not just because of the sappy romantic cards, flowers, and chocolates. I really love doing things for others, especially making special treats for a boy and friends that enjoy it very much! happy valentine's day!

jeremy wade: there is no end to more
















last night i went and saw an interesting/unique performance to say the least at the
EMPAC called there is no end to more. inspired by Japanese kawaii culture, there is no end to more was a one-man performance that featured dance, stories, animation, and video. the actor, Jared Gradinger,"single handedly commands the stage with his interpretation of a Geek's ultimate daydream fantasy: a super hero battleing the forces of evil." this performance was very silly and also scary at times as the lights often went out and deep whispers filled the room, which all included strong messages and heavy subject matter. "wade peeks under the slick, silly surface of kawaii to reveal its more insidious subtext, in which societal norm becomes aberration and consumption gives way to delusion." by the end of the show i felt very certain of the message that consumption will only haunt you in the end.. "i am starting to drown, its a long way down, my shoes are too heavy, i seem to be drowning, i see all colors, i see everything i ever saw, i'm going down.."

still not sure how i feel about it, but here i am still thinking about it.. read more here.

parish cafe

there are many things i miss about boston.. but after a visit this past weekend i forgot how much i missed parish cafe's sandwiches, especially the zuni roll (photo below)! if there's one sandwich cafe i'd put on my best in boston list, without a doubt parish cafe and bar located on boylston street would be number 1. beer and zuni roll, delish!

fashion illustrator: sarah hankinson






















Found out about this fashion illustrator on etsy, which thanks to my friend erika who recently introduced me to etsy.com, and is now my new website addiction. Etsy is an online marketplace where you can buy and sell items that are handmade, as well as vintage goods. If you haven't heard before, definitely worth exploring. I'd say etsy is kind of like an ebay for vintage and homemade goods.

You can buy Sarah's illustrations here.
