carrot cake

i made carrot cake. it turned out pretty good. we've been eating it for dessert everyday. what diet?

baggu

adam and i have a bit of an obsession with reuseable bags/market totes. so when i stumbled on the baggu website, i couldn't resist buying a few of these "baggu's."
www.baggu.com

on a side note, i cannot get used to the east coast time. i can't get up before 9am here..

waiting

i am waiting for adam to come home from school this saturday. today is a day when prospective cmu students come and talk to professors while visiting the campus. adam was supposed to come home at noon and it is now a little past 1pm. i am sooo hungry! i am currently chomping on grapes and mostly the chocolate covered almonds.

lunch

when adam lived in atwater village, i loved going to griffith park. not for the "scenic" hike, but for lunch at the trails cafe in griffith park. i always ordered the avocado/bacon bits sandwich (plus the pie, lemonade, cookie, etc.).

my version of the avocado sandwich is not as good but i enjoy it just as much.
