one time.

One time I went to Turkey. I was 20 years old.

There were mosques there.

They were beautiful.

As were the sunsets.

And the wildlife.

And even the grass.

I sure had a good time!

Birthday Friday

Friday was my friend's 23rd birthday.

We had cake and drank champagne.

Sometimes on the rooftop.

Then we went out and karaoked.

Esquire Fabulous

My favorite magazine.  Not just for men.  For girls and women as well.

Date Night

Friday, originally uploaded by Kepsee.

It had been far too long sinceBear and I had gone on a date so Friday we made a plan, and we made it happen. We went to dinner at The Montage and then drinks on the patio at VQ (Veritable Quandry). We were one of six people at "State of Play" and then got caught in a downpour walking back. Romantic and delightful.

Turkish Breakfast

When I traveled in Turkey a few years ago I was introduced to a breakfast very different from what I was used to, and oh so delicious. As the weather turned warmer I got a sudden craving for this light, healthy breakfast so I whipped it up on the first real spring morning of '09. Delightful.

It's basic, but so delicious.  Boiled eggs, feta cheese, black olives, cucumber and tomato slices, some airy sliced bread (I used ciabatta), orange juice and something hot to drink.  Turkish coffee is best, but I used sweet black tea instead.  Hejhej.
