Ok, well i am not on top of updating this blog as things happen. Yeah...I'm about a week off. haha oh well. Anyway, so the Renegade Craft Fair happened at McCarren Park Pool the weekend of June 14 and 15. Here is a lovely picture of my good friend Kimberly, who was a vendor at the fair. You can check out all of her cool, awesome goodness at chez sucre chez. I went on Saturday and it was crazy, sweaty hot. The fair was amazing with lots of really cool vendors. We ate ice cream, caught up with old friends, danced around in the tent and we wore these funny pins (picture below) I made for us the night before. They are what we like to call, conversation starter pins. Pretty funny and ridiculous. 
Did they work? Ummm...no not at the fair, but it doesn't mean they won't work in other venues. I think they are hilarious. Kind of like a pick up line, but really just a way to start a conversation. Either way, we had fun. xoxo
On Friday June 13, 2008, the only friday the 13th in the entire 2008 calendar year, I got the number 13 tatoo-ed on my right wrist. Three Kings Tatoo shop was offering the number 13 for $13. The number 13 has many meanings to me. I am love13bird, my dad's birthday is on the 13th, and many good things have happened to me on 13's. So here it is, my new impulsive last minute addition to my body and i love it.
My magical friend, Patrick. got us in to the MIA show last Friday night for free. It was soooo fun and awesome. MIA is a great performer! There was so much great music and dancing and the overall vibe of the crowd was fantastic. The weather was great and everyone was dancing and having fun together. We danced our asses off! woo hoo! Thank you Patrick! Fun Times!
Summer time is officially here. The 97 degree weather, sweating my butt off has lead me to believe so. So...that means it's fruit smoothie, fruit granola and yogurt and fruit on cereal time!!!! Hurraayyyy! One of my favorite things about summer is buying up fresh delicious fruit and berries, washing them off, chopping them up and then putting them in either the freezer or fridge for fruit goodness. Ahhhh...I love waking up in the morning and making a fresh fruit smoothie. I make them only with frozen fresh fruit, soy milk and honey and i blend it to the consistency of ice cream so it is a healthy delicious treat! Fresh fruit truly makes me happy. So aside from fresh fruit a few other things that make me happy about summer. The beach, swimming, outside concerts, riding my bike, ice coffee, the park, and going to the movies during the day because it's too hot outside. Like The Carpenters said, "It's only just begun" and I hope summer last forever this year.
A few years ago my friend, Pav, moved to Santa Barbara for school (PHD). Upon leaving the city he graciously left me his bike. This bike has been one of the greatest gifts I have ever gotten. I ride it everywhere! Last summer I rode it over the Williamsburg Bridge for the first time, and yes, I bought a helmet! Helmets are super important! Anyway, i felt like I was kicking that bridge's ass! This summer so far, I feel like the bridge is kicking my ass! Crap! So I am riding over that bridge at least once a week. It's a great challenge and great exercise. If you haven't ridden over the Williamsburg Bridge or any other bridge in the city, I highly recommend it. It is exciting and makes me feel super strong. I love summertime and it has only just begun!
