Vintage Beads

I found this unique, hand made ring at Juniper Tree Vintage, in Alameda, Ca. $10.00 on sale! I wanted to buy all the jewelry there, but I controlled myself 🙂 They have so cutest clothes there as well!

Veggie Japanese-Sushi House

This was my first time to a Japanese restaurant, shame on me! There was fried tofu, tempura veggies, rice, melon and a salad. The meal was quite generous in size, really enough for two people. At only $11.00, I thought this was very reasonable.

I met a friend in the shade…

I was at an Art and Wine festival this week-end in Alameda, Ca. It was pretty warm for the area, loud, crowded, no where to sit. My daughter was starting to get over heated when I found a little Italian man holding a welcome sign to a restaurant. He was tucked in a little tiny bit of shade. He was very nice, so I took a selfie with him, hahahaha.

Really Cool Art!

I came across this huge painting in the basement of an antique store. It was a bit creepy down there, but then I saw this beauty!

This piece is actually a print, set inside the frame with glass on the top.

The thing that caught my eye is what’s on top of the glass. It’s like they took “scribbles” and highlighted some area’s on the outside of the glass, to give it a really cool 3D effect.

Vietnamese Lunch

Pho (pronounced Fa)
Lemon, cilantro, red peppers, green peppers, basil, bok choy, bean sprouts, rice noodle, tofu, and broccoli.

My daughter, her boyfriend and I went out to lunch in Alameda, California. We went to a Vietnamese place called Pho Singh http://www.phosinh.com The pho had so much personality, not salty, but totally full of flavor. I will definitely go to this restaurant again!
