taken at a friend's birthday party last month....

the beard is just a winter affectation, and it comes off next week. i was taken back by the amount of white this year.
v-day was a bit of meh this year. work was the top priority, which meant stress more than relaxation. not that it sucked: we wound up in palm springs for the weekend instead of downtown at lucent l'amour. i did get to ride in the 56-mile Tour de Palm Springs, which was my longest ride in over a year. we rode past the Coachella Valley Preserve, which I am now dying to revisit.
i'm off to the Hwood farmer's market. i'm hoping to spend more time in the kitchen this year, especially exploring all that the local farms have to offer. i'm also looking into secret suppers and underground restaurants in the LA area. I'm starting a thread in the Slow Foods group.
Something that struck me as hilarious, particularly the attention to detail. check out the signs that the protesters are holding....
