I'm the cream of the crop, I rise to the top

On John
Tshirt: Helmut Lang
Jeans: Levis
Shoes: Converse

On Mir
Tshirt: John's old Johannesburg Tshirt
Shorts: Jordache Cut-offs from Value Village in Toronto
Shoes: Canvass sneakers from Urban Outfitters

Hanging out and jumping around Times Square. Really digging the new Strøget inspired makeover. Also really digging John's signature shoe tying technique - kind of like gladiators for men. But not annoyingly played out like gladiators (though, if you're into them, then wear them, throw-away trend fashion sucks). I think the effect is similar to Anne Demeulemeester's lace up booties, and I think its rather sexy, especially with shorts.

Hot, Blue and Righteous

Summer has (finally) arrived. I love this heat. It is the kind of heat that makes it too hot to think. The picture is of a watermelon-lemonade from Bottino. It is a righteous drink. If I were taller, I would surf all summer and have an endless supply of the aforementioned watermelon-lemonade.

We're all pretty bizarre.




Some of us are just better at hiding it, that's all.

Suck A Gill

The Back 40 crab boil deserves all the hype. The crabs are delicious (round 3 was exceptionally amazing, piping hot and super succulent), the service is delightful and the experience is plain, old fashioned fun. Plus, Peter's friendly bar tenders serve real mint juleps in proper mint julep cups! Many thanks to Yasemin and Steph who diligently attempted to make reservations week after week.

Wise man say forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza...

Pizza, one of the greatest foods in the universe, is having a moment. Pizza is amazing and I think it is great that it is getting so much love. Home made pizza is extra amazing. The above photos are of last night's dinner at my sister and her (extremely talented in the kitchen) husband's house. The perfect crust was crafted on the bbq, a trademark pizza making move in my brother in law's family. The end result, white pizza with fresh ricotta, mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses topped with fresh spinach, basil and olive oil was off the hook. As was the arugula and tomato salad. The salad was dressed with The Best Dressed Caesar Dressing- a staple in my mother's kitchen for as long as I can remember and, in my humble opinion, the best caesar dressing in the universe. Dinner was divine. Thank you N, J and H!
