THE WENDY CITY: November 2010

Wednesday, November 24, 2010

Augustus (aka "Goose" and named after Augustus Gloop) is my friends' English Bulldog. I went out to the Sunset to visit them yesterday and we took Goose for a walk. He is adorable! I'm not the only fan of Goose - he has quite the following on Twitter: @augustusbulldog

Goose's parents will be taking off in December for an around-the-world trip. They'll be visiting family, living and working on a sustainable farm and volunteering. I'm so excited for them! I want to go too! You can follow their adventures on their blog: Where the Road Meets the Sun

Mexican Food Extravaganza

As much as I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the food in NY, the one thing that I miss from CA is Mexican food. I've been in CA for 4 days and I've had Mexican food 4 times already...and I'm not done yet. Here are a couple of things I've eaten so far:

Homemade chili colorado and flan

Carnitas and duck mole from Napolito

Boutiques.com Party

Got an invite to Google's Boutiques.com party at the Skylight in Soho! Boutiques.com launched their beta site yesterday and threw an amazing party to celebrate. Lots of celebs and bloggers there - I saw Mary Kate Olsen, Alexa Chung and Bryanboy! (Photos of a lot of celebs I didn't see from Marie Claire) The Skylight space was divided into six mini boutiques to represent the six style categories on Boutiques.com: Boho, Casual Chic, Classic, Edgy, Romantic and Street. There were different drinks, activities and foods to correspond with each boutique as well. My favorite was the "Edgy" boutique where we got tattoos!
