val's married!
this past weekend, i went to val‘s wedding in vallejo… it was a tough drive up after prom on friday night, and then after the wedding on sunday, it was a tough drive back home (we got in at 5:30am!) but it was really nice to see val and eli again, and jim, and merv, and other friends from puc.
i didn’t get a seat with the best view so i don’t have very many pics of the wedding, but i got the one requisite photo right here!
and of course, here are some puc friends - they didn’t hold the pose after the official photographer snapped her shot, but it’s the only one i have of us together. from left to right: liza with jim, casey, merv, stacey, val, eli, me, karem (and doug is missing), and doris.

bittersweet cafe
went to the bittersweet cafe in oakland this weekend
that’s a cup of “the bittersweet” (basically, a cup of hot dark chocolate. mmm.....) right there in that pic, along with a mini pear chocolate ginger muffin, which was extremely lovely.
bought a domori madagascar dark chocolate bar (70% pure cacao) which promised that it packed a passionfruit punch, and i actually liked it, though i couldn’t tell it was passionfruit. i thought 70% might be too strong, but it was still enjoyable.
now i just have to give my brother his 52% dark chocolate bar with earl grey in it, so i can taste that. it should be interesting!

google maps in san francisco gives you the option to see the ’street view‘ of pretty much the entire city!
