Here are some photos from a rain-free afternoon last week:
I met my friend Lupe for lunch and we both happened to be craving pho! Kindred spirits? Perhaps. As it gets colder I always want noodle soups though. I really miss Japanese ramen! There is one place, Samurai Ramen, in the International District, but that’s pretty far away. They’ve been planning to open a branch in the U-district for years but we have yet to see any progress. I suppose pho will have to do in the meantime!
We walked to Solstice cafe after eating and people watched from the porch while drinking coffee.
As you can see, he took this picture of me without warning. : p
Later that day Paul and I walked down to my brother’s place to have pumpkin pancakes for dinner…
Look how stunning the walk was! A guy wiped out on his bike right next to us just before I took this picture. Ouch.
: )
Later at Ben’s place we were laughing about he and Ross’ (his roommate) new “Canadian tuxedos.” They had recently gone to a retirement home themed party and decided to buy jean “suits” inspired by some old Canadian family picture they had seen – the story was something like that at least – for it. Anyway I decided to try Ben’s suit on and he took a picture. Prepare yourselves, this picture might rival my 6th grade class photo in its awfulness…
Puahahaha. What do you think? I wore it over my clothes and the pants seem to have added about 20 pounds to each of my legs, huh? Note that this outfit is a three piece set, with high waist pants, a jean shirt, and a vest on top. Also important: the bolo.
: )
Happy halloween!
