Last Wednesday I ventured out to Mt. Rainier w/ Ange & Ness for a hike up the Longmire trail. Once we got there we met up w/ our bikes that we had already locked up on top of the mountain... and then we cruised down the mountain in complete bliss...except for Ness, whose bikes was making all kinda of racket.

I DJ-ed w/ Edmund Lapine on Saturday night at the Christmas record release party. Edmund spun this record by EL GUINCHO... and I got it the next day. This artist is from Spain and released a record last year on a label called Young Turks. It really reminds of earlier Animal Collective and it got me pumped to clean the kitchen yesterday. This video is kinda nice.

the colors in this photo are a little weird cause it was originally very dark and I adjusted it in P-Shop. Anyways, you can see a delicious slice of Carrot Pancake (Finnish), w/ homemade applesauce (local Honey Crisp apples), deliciously baked tofu, Gingered Beets (Jewish & amazing!), and a steamed beat salad w/ toasted sesame seeds, butter, salt & pepper! This dinner made me so euphoric! whoa. I wanna make Carrot Pancakes for everybody! so fluffy!

...& speaking of FLUFFY! look at this guy! Apparently, Walter really likes horses now. We told him we'd get him a pony.

this is Sterling Morrison, Portland, Oregon's fluffiest little guy! head on over to numberoneblogdog.blogspot.com to check out a really cute video of him panting like a dog!

Nora Danielson & Shawn Parke wait at the Taco Truck for Brian to show up. The Taco Truck downtown has def. been the best summer lunch spot and will be greatly missed in the winter. I also don't think anyone is officially sick of it yet, which is saying a lot for the Taco Truck.

the Mexican Train got de-railed w/ S. Calland last night

Shawn, Formo, & I went to Norma's today. It was a first for all of us... and a last.
