Black Friday always makes me itchy. Corporations want you to feel dissatisfied with what you already have, scratching with a new purchase.

Today, I'm styling what I already own in a different way...intentional enjoying "enough." Collar pop and rolling the sleeves yields a new look.

Learning to Cook to improve my diet:

Recipe 1 - Quinoa Salad
This is a mix of quinoa, cucumber, bellpepper, onion, chickpeas, and a lemon vinegarette.

Today I learned that herbs are important and not to forget them. This needs parsley! Also, Olive Oil for cooking is not the same as finishing oil.

Not feeling celebratory, so here's a #mothman sketch instead!
Illustration of the mothman posed in a tree branch. He's all black with a fuzzy collar. His wings are unfolded behind him, and his eyes glow red menacingly.

Happy Pride, friends and folx! #SantaMonica is by far the most chill Los Angeles County #pride event.
Bearded man in a blue shirt stands in front of a rainbow photo-op. Wavy lines in the six pride colors form an arch, flanked by balloons. Two men stand in front of a photo-op with the words "PRIDE" covered in a rainbow of sequins. They are on Santa Monica's Third Streed Promanade, flanked by palm trees. A cute golden pomeranian wearing a rainbow tutu airs in a white remote control car. Brass marching band in white tshirts performs in front of a store front. They wear rainbow sashes while a rainbow windsock flutters in the foreground.

Person dressed as a ghost in a green sheet. They stand in front of a Victorian house with dark gray shiplap and white gingerbread features. 1960s inspired flower shapes are strung along the porch in neon colors. American folk inspired pumpkin scarecrow figure, holding yet another carved pumpkin in their lap. The faces are simplistic in ways that evoke "Over the Garden Wall." A booth festooned with blow mold halloween decorations of white ghosts, orange pumpkins, and green monsters. It's nestled amongst Victorian homes of LA's Heritage Square Museum. An old Victorian chapel at LA's Heritage Square Museum. It's decorated along the sides with a large skeleton sitting on a pumpkin head that looks like the character Enoch from "Over the Garden Wall." Additional pumpkins decorate the other side.

Visited Horror Vibes Coffee in the North Hollywood Arts District. Beautiful murals, a novel menu, and a rad atmosphere. Will definitely return when I need to practice some "self-scare."
Exterior of Horror Vibes Coffee in NoHo features a branded neon sign, and hand-drawn illustrations of famous pop-culture and movie monsters. A bearded mix race man in a baseball cap poses in front of an illustrated mural of a jack-o-lantern man. Posing in front of a mural with text that says "I sold my soul for coffee." A life-size figure of Nosterau from the 2024 Robert Eggers film adds atmosphere. Two drinks from the seasonal "Final Girls" menu. The "Minxx-alada" is a piñacolada slushie, bright yellow in color. The "Cuckoo Yuzu is a honey cinnamon coldbrew with a frothy white yuzu foam. The former was tart and sweet, the latter an interesting balance of flavors after all elements mixed.

Knott's Boysenberry Festival 2025 is a delight as always. Many delicious food options, requiring multiple trips.

We tried the Birria Sliders and Sloppy Joe Burger. Birria was exceptional with a slightly sweet flavoring and an umame consummé. Burger was solid but messy.
Boysenberry Festival entrance display featuring a windmill surrounded by boysenberry vines. Beneath are many potted floral and oversized berry props. Yours truly, excited to eat the birria sliders at Wilderness Broiler. Boysenberry Beef Birria Sliders with consummé. Garnished with cotija cheese and cilantro. Boysenberry Sloppy Joe Burger, served with fries and vegetables toppings. The sloppy joe mince had a berry flavor itself but also featured a purple syrup as well. Garnished with fritos.

Perfect Spooky Weekend -

Saturday: Shopping at "LankerScream" in NoHo and the closing of Dark Delicacies book store in Burbank

Sunday: Back to Burbank for "Terror Market" in the Blast from the Past parking lot.

Terror Market had better shopping, but LankerScream had screenings and aircon.
"Terror Market" A-frame sign depicting the event logo. An illustrated paper bag holds monster hand, brain, kitchen knife, eyeball and other spooky elements. Photo-op with cosplayers dressed as Michael Meyers from 'Halloween' and Jason Vorhees from 'Friday the 13th.' Wide shot of the event in the Blast from the Past parking lot in Burbank. Attendees look at various spooky booths and merchandise. Photo op with Barlow the vampire from Salem's Lot. Costumes characters were also a feature of the closing of Dark Delicacies book shop.

Acrylic painting of two men kissing. The more dominant in the frame is older, bald, with a white beard, wearing glasses and a plaid shirt. The younger man is wearing a baseball cap and has a dark beard. The whole painting is mono chromatic in deep cobalt blues evoking a cyanotype photo.

I'm grateful to have art. It's offers mindfulness, personal development, and focused observation. Here's a little #watercolor sketch.
Watercolor sketch of a Tudor cottage with yellow walls and brown wood trim. The windows have an orange glow, and two chimneys poke out above the roofline. A flagstone pathway leads to the door. Climbing ivy runs up the exterior walls. And a tree and bush emerge from the rear.

October Village organized a rad spooky market event with "Tavern of Terror" for "Valloween." An excellent selection of merchants, fun photo op, and exposure for Villains Brewery in Anaheim, which I'll have to return to try. They do regular events in SoCal/OC.
Photo Op with three oversized spooky stuffed bears in pink, yellow, and blue. They look worn, demonic, and unhinged. Signage references "October Village" and "@Room2Party" the organizers of the Tavern of Terror event. Laser cut acrylic bag charms displayed on a wire rack. These charms come in a variety of styles featuring: Jack Skellington, Oogie Boogie, heart Jack-o-lantern designs, ghosts, Star Wars, etc. They feature glitter, holographic, translucent, and glow-in-the dark acrylic materials. These items are from the "lanternpins.com" booth.

Visited City Hall in Burbank, CA to admire the gorgeous art deco architecture. So many lovely details. This is what public buildings should be like.
Burbank City Hall exterior. A square central tower, flanked by twin steps and palm trees. The front features a fountain with aquamarine tiles and patina-ed brass. The front fountain, though no longer running water, features beautiful tile work, face like spouts, and geometric wave like motifs. The central lobby features an upper balcony with brass railing and acrylic rounders in vertical stacks of three. The stair case leads from the first floor toward a central mural featuring key industries of Burbank: farmers, early filmmakers, and aviation manufacturing. Above, a sky light features a circular flower pattern. Looking down at the first floor from the balcony, a Burbank crest features a compass rose with wings emerging from each side. The inlay work is done in various shades of marble.

In my declutter process, I'm trying to better display beloved items rather than have them stored away. Here's all of my random #PixarUp collectibles together on the shelf. Still my favorite film 15 years later.
Various collectibles from the Pixar film 'Up'. Plastic figures of Carl, Russell, Dug, Kevin and Ellie. A framed map of Paradise Falls. Ceramic cookie jar of the balloon house. Plush of Kevin and Dug, and a nuiMO of Russell.

Excited to see 'Wicked'.
Illustration of Elphaba from the film 'Wicked'. Posed in a dark gray dress, pointing dramatically, she clutches her broom stick in her other hand. In contrast to her green skin, behind her are the silhouettes of cogs and gears tinted in pinks and purples.
