Trash the Dress

As part of the wedding photography package that I bought from Lindsey Cahill we received a "Trash the Dress" session. A TTD can be taken literally, where you really trash the dress, or you can just have a good time in the dress. I chose the latter option, so that I could preserve my dress while still doing some fun things in it. The photos will be online within a few days from Lindsey, but in the meantime, here are a few teasers that will at least let you see how I looked...oh, and Frank, too.

At the Ferry Building:

We took a few photos in my convertible. Here is a reflection shot outside of the GAP Headquarters on the Embarcadero. Notice the background image:

Here's my make-up close-up. I love the purple eyes!

Frank & I ended the night by eating at Perry's on Union Street. When we walked in the door, the hostess said, "um, any special occasion?" We laughed.

We'll post more soon!

DOG SHOW

DOG SHOW! Yes, a real dog show with a theme - WoofStock. Handlers were in tie-dye, dogs were being primped, and I learned a few new things about dogs.

Here are a few highlights:

Shiba-Inu, waiting to show...

From Dog Show
Poodles must be older than 1.5 years to wear a hairstyle like this.

This is no accident!

Bow & Arrow

  Strolling down the Embarcadero in San Francisco, you can't help but notice the bow & arrow stuck in the ground. It's a pretty unique piece of art for the Waterfront.

Enjoy!

7:15 2/16 Barefoot Contessa Inspired

Tonight, it was the meal that made the evening's photo. I just created this meal as inspired by the Barefoot Contessa. Filet mignon, drizzled in cambazola cheese, wild mushrooms with shallots and butter, and a side of broccoli. Wow...yes, I took a bow.

Despite the name of the movie, it was a great flick. Iris and I saw it together, while the boys watched their own movie in another theatre.

Valentine's Day 2009

It was a fun morning. I woke up at six, telling Frank that I had to work. I went to decorate the kitchen, but when I arrived, Frank had already put out a dozen roses for me. It was a pleasant surprise.

When we celebrated at breakfast, we ate pink pancakes, rose champagne, and eggs in the shape of a heart. It was a meal of love.

Frank cooks the eggs, while my pancakes await to be turned over.
