Cake Wrecks

So you all know about cake wrecks, right? The cake wrecks lady has been blogging for about ten months now, but she seems to have captured lightening in a bottle with her cake-y goodness. I think she is hilarious. My favorite posts are called missed marks. These posts depicts a positive example of what the cake ought to be:



followed by the wreck:



The pictures are great, but the best part is her snarky comments. So go visit cake wrecks. It is good.

Wedding Slideshow

Over the past couple of months, whenever I have felt down,  I would point my browser over to Jules Bianchi's blog to watch our wedding slideshow.



Jules is such a talented photographer, I feel very fortunate that we could secure her for the ever popular 06.07.08 date. All of her weddings were fabulous. Check out her Greatest Hits slideshow to see some of the other photos.

Unfortunately the I/T goon squad at my new gig categorizes Jules Bianchi as pornography and blocks all my access at work. WTF is up with that? There was nothing pornographic about my wedding :(

Art imitates Life

I enjoy the best views in Belmont from my living room and balcony. Panning 270 degrees, I can see the lush green nature of Belmont Canyon to the fireworks of Oakland Coliseum far across the bay. In between, I look down upon most of downtown San Mateo, San Francisco, the Bay Bridge, Coyote Point, and Foster City.

On clear days, the view is really spectacular. I am going to miss them and I encourage everyone to swing by and take a look before we sell the joint. Here is a glimpse of Belmont Canyon:



Unfortunately, if I turn my head to the left I see a dated '70's fireplace. Last Sunday, we hunted down some cheap art to minimize the dated architecture. I am happy with our purchase because it pairs well with the canyon views:



If I get too bent out of shape about losing my home, maybe I'll take this cheap painting with me on the way out.
