This past Saturday was my Mom’s birthday, so in traditional fashion, we celebrated all weekend long, starting Friday night in Campbell. Saturday we blissed out in SF and wandered up to Union Square and the new Westfield Shopping Centre. I didn’t realize it was new at the time, I just […]

I’m not sure how I would feel about a fish watching me while I eat caviar and sashimi. Would he be judging me? I see you eating my brothers!! What possesses someone to even come up with such a display? And wonder how long these fish live? How many times […]
It was another movie night for me, with another classic – The Wizard of Oz. I love the movie, and I love the book. I just wish they had put the china-land into the movie. If I ever continue with the postcards series, that will be the next image. Again, […]
