beach bum



it's in my blood. i am genetically engineered to love the beach. once my family moved away from california, i always knew i would one day be moving back. i loved the diversity, i loved the culture, i loved living outside of san francisco, i loved the food, and i loved summer days at the beach. but now i think i'm having a moment of hesitation. because new york has it all. it's not often that the words new york city conjure up the images of ocean tides rolling in on sandy shores. but folks let me tell you it's true. yes, this california girl felt that sand in between her toes once again. it has been awhile.




after a weekend with the boys, it was nice to hang out with marissa and lay out on the beach. we made our way to brighton beach which happens to be in the russian part of brooklyn. i didnt know moscow was on the beach did you? anyways, i am hooked and will be back.

afterwards we got ourselves some absolute bagel. after scarfing down my bagel with cream cheese, i decided i needed a second. this time i just got a plain bagel, not toasted and no cream cheese. and let me tell you its not the cream cheese that is amazing. next, we made our ways to H&M, don't worry, not much damage was done. but with the heat and humidity, marissa and i are looking for ways to wear the least amount of clothing without looking skanky. i am in love with this dress, marissa bought.

(picture to come, couldn't find it on the website)

to celebrate our new purchases, enjoying some magnolia's bakery in byrant park as the sun set down the avenues seemed just the way to do it. we recommend the lemon bar although the banana cream pudding is always a good choice too.

and to end a perfect day i stepped in a pile of poo.
cool
