I got a bike!

I got it at a yard sale for $40 bucks! I can’t believe my luck. It’s a slightly older model of this: http://www.linusbike.com/models/roadster-sport

This is a bean taco and I made it. I made the guac and I fried the tortilla into a crispy salty goodness.

The Dollar Store

This post is about saving money: I have found the promised land. It’s 5 minutes from my current place of residence. This dollar store sells fresh produce, food of all kinds, candies of delight. I got all this for $8.33. Sometimes I buy Oreos.

Slaughterhouse Five

The book was so good. I wish I hadn’t put it off for so long. I love reading fiction written by authors with real life cred. My heart is warmed.

The Getty Center

The Getty was really nice. It’s up on a mountain and you have to walk outside in a courtyard to get between the art pavilions, so it’s really beautiful. You also have to take a monorail type thing to get from the street up the mountain. I think that’s neat. Also, admission is free and so are all of the tours and exhibitions!

Here are some paintings I really loved:

Wheatstacks, Snow Effect, Morning (Monet)
Saint George (Dosso Dossi)
Head of a Woman (Michael Sweerts)
The Rue Mosnier with Flags (Manet)
Adoration of the Magi (1390-1410) *
A Young Girl Defending Herself against Eros (Bouguereau) **

Yogurtland

So, this is a place were you go and you self-serve yourself any variety of frozen yogurt you want. Then you pile on AWESOMENESS. As much AWESOMENESS as you want. Fruit. Candy. Honey. Cereal. Candy. Then you pay by the ounce. 30 center per ounce that is. I spent 4.92. That should give you an idea about how many ounces I ate.
