Vegan MoFo! Philly restaurant- Soy Cafe
Sunday Oct. 11. Today D. and I went to Soy Cafe in the Northern Liberties section of the city for a late lunch. I had tried their wrap sandwiches at an art event in the summer, but we had never actually been there before. It’s always nice to see “Vegan Friendly” on a sign at [...]

Monk’s Cafe is a Philly institution. Great beer and vegan food!

One of the things I love about wandering in Philly is stumbling across random murals in the most unlikely places. This one is in South Philly somewhere. I really like it. A lot of the larger murals seem to have this theme of collaging together a bunch of multicultural people doing inspiring [...]

Went up to Chinatown to get my new driver’s license photo and came upon some new dragon statues that weren’t there the last time I was there.

Today I took the train downtown and walked from 30th St. Station to 50th & Baltimore and back, taking lots of photos. There’s something pleasing about wandering randomly and looking for interesting things to photograph. It makes me very aware of the details of my surroundings, and also aware of how much [...]

The very last Boardgame Night at High Point Cafe. Boo! It was fun while it lasted. Thanks Matt for organizing it. Tonight we played a game called Pandemic, which involves all players working together to stop a disease from taking over the world. We failed, but had fun anyway.

It has been raining so much here lately! Fine by me, I hate summer and this weird extended April-like weather is just great by comparison.

I took a lot of photos today while I was walking to the monthly meeting of Handmade Philly. It has been way too long since I’ve done one of those wander randomly and take tons of photos things. This one is my favorite though.

Puddle. It has been raining a lot lately. People keep complaining, but I kind of like it. The longer that awful 90+ hot humid summer nonsense stays away the happier I am! It’s been like a never ending April lately.

Blew off the gym at lunch and wandered around campus instead. Spent an inordinate amount of time pondering how ornate architecture used to be and trying to figure out exactly when the standard became starkly simple. There seems to be little middle ground on campus between old/ornate and starkly functional 60’s-70’s looking [...]

My sister and I have a tradition- every year for Christmas I buy us tickets to a ballet. She loves the ballet (and took dance lessons for far longer than I did and was far better at it than I ever was!) but her husband won’t go with her, so it’s become [...]
