Welcome to my new kitchen!


We MOVED!!

We have uprooted ourselves from perfect San Diego and ended up in Santa Monica - a not so shabby little nook of Los Angeles - while I attend grad school at UCLA. We now live in half of an old Craftsman-style home not very far from the beach. The duplex has old funky quirks and lots and lots of hardwood!

The kitchen is smaller than I was used to, but that's not saying much!

The weather has just barely started to cool down, so I think tonight I'll roast up some garlic and beets - and maybe even a batch of pumpkin bread!

Procrastinating studying? Yes.

I love how you have the stuff up on the fridge so quick!
I can't wait to see the place for myself.
Miss you!

I love Santa Monica Elyse! and I love craftsman style houses. there were tons and tons in our community in long Beach. I like L.A. i just HATE L.A. traffic especially the traffic that is just on the 405 outside of UCLA. The worst. I worked in the Veterans hospital across from UCLA. i would have to leave an hour and a half before work from Long Beach to get to that dang hospital! So its good you live so close. How is being engaged? What is your new address? I wanted to send you something but I didnt know where to send it. Oh and.... I swear im wrapping this up... I got a job in Scripps so when you are down again let me know! love you, miss you, and good luck in school you are going to rock it;)
