he loves your electric dumplings

friday night went to an impromptu surprise birthday party at the fuel house on clinton. we were treated to delicious snacks and copious tequila shots. they dredged the lemon wedges in sugar on one side, and coffee grounds the other. DELICIOUS. i recommend it. it's a very cute bar, i would go back there. stella was up for a snuggle upon my arrival home. i am always happy to oblige.

saturday morning i was taken out for brunch at fanny chadwicks on dupont. it was SO GOOD. the colonial sticky bun knocked my socks off and prevented me from making much progress on the banana buttermilk pancakes. see that fruit salad? it had pomegranate seeds in it.

i spent the rest of my birthday watching boardwalk empire. stella approved. have now watched the entire first season.

this is me not caring about my dirty mirror. yes i'm 29 and my mirror is dirty. clearly i had other priorities that day. like doing my nails. and watching boardwalk empire.

went to drift to celebrate with a very small group. i wanted to "do nothing", and this came close enough. julia made me a very, very cute little care package with delicious baked goods inside.

talented woman. "oh this perfect script? just whipped it up!"

i woke up on sunday covered in hives. it was a little worrisome but they went away so i'm pretending it never happened. i spent the day playing with my new birthday watercolour set. really enjoyed doing this, more in the future.

oscar says this fridge is his. he looks like he's talking like a mobster. maybe it's just me.
