My sister made me an AWESOME blanket! She asked me (not too long ago, which means she works FAST) what colors I liked, and I said I liked a mix of turquoise, red and blue. And today I got this in the mail! She’s the best. (I’ve already taken a nap with it. It smelled delicious, like my sister’s house – vanilla, buttercream icing, marshmallows, and the white stick part of Fun Dip.)

Kome is open!! I can’t WAIT to get in there and eat some ramen and onigiri.

Top Chef starts next week, and though I’ve never watched it before, I will be glued to the TV for this season, because two of our pals, Paul Qui and Drew Curren, are on it! So exciting!

We’re going to Uchi on Friday with our friends B. and C., and it’s been way too long since we’ve seen them or been to Uchi. I am going to inhale some nigiri. Plus, last night we watched an amazing documentary about a sushi chef, Jiro Dreams of Sushi, and so my sushi craving is at extreme levels.

La Boite opened a new location downtown, just a few minutes away from us! I could walk down there every morning for croissants and coffee. I mean, we all know I won’t, but I COULD! 😉

Supper club is this Sunday! We’re making Indian yumminess – matar paneer, raita, and jeera rice. I can’t wait!

Tomorrow the high temperature is supposed to be 67 degrees! It will feel like fall, if only for a day. Hooray!

Hope your week is lovely and exciting, too. 🙂
