Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone has had a fun and safe Halloween weekend. Here are a few pictures from my weekend so far. My boyfriend and I were... can you guess? Calvin and Hobbes. And if you don't know who Calvin and Hobbes are your childhood is incomplete.

Better pictures of Halloween costumes coming soon.

Have a Happy Halloween, go eat some candy!

Don't forget to check out some stylish Halloween costumes if you need a last minute idea!

Yesterday

Yesterday was a good day because:

1. I treated myself to a relaxing lunch at Panera (the Sierra turkey sandwich to be exact. It's my favorite) and got to sit and read and have some me time.

2. I wore my Beirut t-shirt that I got at the concert the other night (post forthcoming) and the lady at the register at Panera liked it and had a mutual love for Beirut and we had a nice conversation about it. I love friendly people.

3. Work was really easy and went smoothly and stress free

4. I got two pairs of shoes for $25.
Now someone invite me to go out and dance or go to a fancy party or something.

5. I got to catch up with three of my best friends and we had a really great time together (british accents may have been involved)

6. I had chinese food for dinner (Thank you China Max)

7. I drove around all day with the windows down

8. I went to goodwill and found exactly what I need for my Halloween costume (plus two super cute skirts)

9. I finished several custom order cowls. Yay productivity!

10. Seeing all the pretty fall leaves change colors makes me happy.

What was good about your yesterday?

Boston: Part 1

Over the weekend I took a little trip to Boston to visit some friends (who are very talented, one makes jewelry and the other is a web/application designer). It was my first time in Beantown and it was a wonderful first impression. I'd been looking forward to this trip for a few months, and I'm quite sad it's over now.
This is the first of two posts because there are a lot of pictures!

Here are some of my favorite highlights from the first two days....

  My first cannoli 

Giant laptops??

These tetris looking things were on several lamp posts at one intersection. Someones version of yarn bombing maybe?

Good BLT's

Lamont Library at Harvard. If you whisper into one end of the arch you can hear it in the other!

 A little trip to Urban Outfitters of course

What's wrong with this picture?

The leaves are changing color!

The Freedom Trail

More to come!
