Today is Sam's birthday!! Can't wait for dinner/drinks with friends tonight. This past weekend we went to a dinner by Chefs Seth Siegel-Gardner & Terrence Gallivan (wish I could link you to their site, but they don't have one, just a phone number), Pilot Light Restaurants. Their cooking background is incredible - Google them! The dinner we went to had such an interesting concept. It was in the back room of Mortar. Yup ... there is a whole kitchen in the back of that men's clothing boutique! There were six of us and Seth & Terrence cook/plate the food right in front of you. It was really fun and such a great experience, probably one of the best meals I have ever had. The group was so diverse but with a couple drinks & good food, it was such a fun time.
Here are some mobile uploads from that night:

I was doing my daily reading of Garance Dore's blog, came across her skirt + sweater post, and put together my very own skirt + sweater combo using a shopchristinasun original. It's so cool & effortless, not to mention comfortable - my three favorite things! I'm probably going to wear it like this someday real soon.
Check out Daniel Chang's (Sam's brother) music on his Facebook page - just launched today! It's really awesome stuff (he wrote the songs himself). You can listen to his music for free on his page and read about the makings of his latest album "Taste and Sing". I snapped these photos of him today for his page:
This past week I've been feeling crafty so I added to my scrapbook - and it reminded me of Paris (a big part of my heart was left in Paris, if you didn't already know!). My scrapbook is a bible of all the places I've been, so it's a constant work-in-progress. Here are some of the Paris ones I put in it:
