Veselka.

When I'm in New York, I always head to Veselka. When I lived in New York (for one summer, in 2004), I lived just a 20 minute walk from here, and would come at all hours. This is really my perfect idea of comfort food, and it's open 24 hours. I love the mushroom and sweet potato pierogies. And the blintzes. Oh, heaven. It's great for groups who want to share. And it's not such authentic Eastern European fare that it can't accommodate vegetarians.

Behold:

Oh, yes.

Chicago.

This past weekend, I was in Chicago. A dear friend from high school is expecting her first bebeh, and this weekend was her baby shower. It was, as always, fantastic to catch up with my friends from high school. But I also had the opportunity this time to explore Chicago, which was really great.

Dan's Birthday.

Dan and I threw a little shindig at our place for Dan's birthday last night. Our friends are fantastic, Dan got plenty of great stuff (and attention!). We both had a blast, and I feel so lucky I got to honor my phenomenal partner. I am impossibly lucky and so in love.

2 Amys.

Oh, holy pizza. This is one of my favorite pizzas I've ever eaten, and one of my favorite DC spots. San Francisco is kind of notorious for not having great pizza (or bagels), so when I go east, I always eat Italian. Recently, I went to 2 Amys, for the first time in years, with one of my best friends. I remembered it being amazing, as was not disappointed. Observe:

Pizza is yummy.

Really yummy.

We are really cute.

Amazing.

Joshua Tree.

My sweetie and I went to Joshua Tree National Park for New Year's camping with a passel of friends. It was very beautiful and very cold. Campfires, hiking, outdoor cooking, wandering around in the desert. And hanging out in the hot tubs in Desert Hot Springs. Fun!
