ursamajor: the Swedish Chef, juggling (bork bork bork!)
I didn't think I was going to San Francisco last week after all because of moving and the hurricane. But MAGIC HAPPENED, and thanks to the talents and persistence of the [personal profile] hyounpark travel agency and our Bluepasses, my flight got booked Tuesday night, and 24 hours later I was ON A PLANE.

First stop: Udupi Palace for pineapple uttapam with high school friend Karen, my brother, and his college friend Ian.

Pineapple uttapam.


We're talking cafeteria-size trays here. Enough that we all walked out with leftovers, and then a homeless guy asked us for spare change; we asked him if he was hungry, and he walked away with at least a day's worth of food for himself.

Thursday, Bay Area: wherein I eat like a hobbit; what the ocean tastes like; a wide-eyed baby who likes watermelon sorbet. Korean barbecue. Sweets up the wazoo. )

*

Friday, San Francisco: the foodpocalypse continues. )

*

Repacked Saturday, and then skipped down to DC Sunday morning. Rockets, cupcakes, the meaty meat platter, the best burger Hyoun has ever had, and Vermont sugar on snow. )

So yeah, that's how I spent four days in a row in airports. ;) Thanks, Bluepass! Now to figure out where we're going this weekend ... we'd originally thought Pittsburgh, but that may get pushed back to next weekend, and we may do Chicago instead. We'll see!

they mentioned springfield and hartford. *amused!ursie*

yay for amazing choir practices and gorgeous music that just makes me shiver and wish i had four voices so i could sing it *all* when it's just me in my apartment ...

bostonian announcement: if you're free wednesday evenings in october, a lot of the local choirs are putting together a unified larger choir to sing the faure requiem for a performance on november 10th to raise money for some of the various charities/funds that have sprung into being. no auditions, just show up.

another way to make my day: getting the last two egg custards at the chinese bakery at lunch. mmmmmmmmmmm. :) and then i ran into teresa as well!

i love wednesdays. dawson's. west wing. law and order. and #lf chat. :)

i don't like joey's new hair color, though. :P but jesse l. martin's still cute. :)
