Domestic bliss. I'm loving my new neighborhood (and roommate sitch.) There's a gourmet grocer to the left, a supermarket to the right, two cafés right out front and a laundromat 'round the corner. C'est bon! The ingredients seen here are for my chickpea salad (blogged about here). My new take on the recipe - one that's a bit heartier and therefore more winter-friendly - is to eschew the cucumber and tomatoes and stick to parsley, lentils, chickpeas and red onion. Drizzle with lemon (it's a Mediterranean winter?) and olive oil, sprinkle with black pepper. Done and doner. Also, La Colombe is down the street from work and their logo is sooo cute and lastly, my roommate's cat - it doesn't actually hate me, I swear!
People and places. I'm going to make a concerted effort to shoot XXCLUSIVE street style snaps ONLY AS SEEN ON Instagram. There are tons of people out there who look cool and I can't always have my camera on me, plus I like to get more portrait-y stuff of anyone who looks interesting and not necessarily in a fashion-y way. Though the two people here, I like their style. Also, I put these architecture shots next to the street shots for maximum ART IMPACT, but also these buildings are such penises, no? Note: the one on the top right is the Trump tower. #justsayin
Plant digest. I love taking pictures of plants. They're just like, sooo pretty.
