out getting ribs

Today, J and I went to book our caterer for our wedding. From the beginning we wanted bbq, then we flirted with the idea of a taco food truck, after which we leaned to the grilled cheese truck, and back to bbq. Needless to say, today we found our caterer, who consisted of this hip little husband and wife team. We went to heir house in LA where they served us up the goods. The baked mac 'n cheese was delish, and the asparagus spears were amazing as well. Ribs and pulled pork sandwiches, here I come. (p.s. "Out Getting Ribs" serves double duty as the title for this entry and a Zoo Kid song. I don't like his new moniker, so I won't use it. You should check him out; I've had my eye (ear?) on him for a while, since my music guru (my lovey, Johnny) told me about him about a year ago. He always knows the good music way ahead of the game).

Also, this is not the outfit I wore to do the tasting. I'll post that tomorrow. This is me two days ago waiting at a donut shop for 4 hours for the locks on my car to be changed because I lost my keys the day before after thrifting for vintage plates to use during the wedding. Ugh. I did get some short story writing done, which is good because the preliminary deadline for my collection of short stories plus my thesis is the end of March, right around my wedding day...

smorgasbord 2012

Hey guys! I just realized, it's been just a few days over two years since I started my blog. For a good part of it though, it was just for me. Now I'm glad to say I've made quite a few friends on blogger (and other blog sites), from Erin of Calivintage, Julia of La Belle Oiselle, Lauren of Blooming Leopold, Ashley of Milk Teeths, Kathleen of Flightless Darling, and many many more. Thanks all for reading! You're the best!

Anyway, I know I've been super AWOL for the past few months, with a haphazard post here and there, but I'm planning on getting better. By the end of the week, check out some new merch in the shop, HoneyBee Vintage. Can't wait for you to see all the new precious things!

Also, I've been getting lots and lots of wedding planning done. I found a wedding dress! Tomorrow morning I get to taste cakes! Yeah, yeah!

Here's a few of the recent happenings in photos (all blurry camera phone shots, sorry). Have a great week, all!

p.s. Blueberry donuts are heaven. Trust me.

current/elliot lookbook

I wants it all. Good thing is, I can recreate most of these ensembles with things I already own. Especially the entire first outfit, and the denim pieces. And those polka dot pants are too too lovely. I have a soft spot for cream and tan together, too. Inspiration for Spring!

p.s. GOOD NEWS! I'll be having some new inventory at HoneyBee Vintage by week's end. Be on the lookout. I've lately (in the past week or more) been almost cleared out of products. Thanks for shopping everyone!

yeah, oh yeah!

YES!

happy new year!

New Year's Eve was spent making party hats and playing Wipeout on the Kinect. Here you can witness the amazingness of our crowns/hats, my crooked tooth in black and white, and how foggy it was outside at 1215am New Year's Day.
