CONTACT FASHION SAND/ PRESS. The Alternative Cafe Shenanigans – MYTH and MYRRH. December 13, 2010. 8221; Ehringer definitely fucked the shit up in his paintings–but in a brilliant way. Ehringer who came up from Manhattan Beach told me he was enjoying the visit. “Seaside reminds me of Manhattan when I was a kid–an old school beach town–there’s hipsters and yuppies everywhere.” Maybe not everywhere but definitely at The Alternative Cafe.

Best of Monterey County. On Saturday, July 17th, my mom, sister, and I ate at Fishwife. 789 Trinity Ave, Seaside). We drove there after the scary, slightly dangerous Toyota Camry ride through Fort Ord's mountain bike trails (NOT recommended). I chose this place because it's on my "Best Of" list. Fishwife won the title of "Best Restaurant in Seaside." I beg to differ. 1 Line caught Sea Bass ($14) grilled, with sauteed spinach and tomato on a bed of rice on a bed of pineapple cream sauce. JK Coley. She...

http://32above.blogspot.com/2010/11/pumpkin-pie-to-pictionary.html
Best of Monterey County. Pumpkin Pie to Pictionary. We had a holiday potluck at work yesterday and I decided to use it as a way to test out one of the pumpkin pie recipes I'm thinking of using for Thanksgiving. After looking online I decided to test Cook's Illustrated's recipe. 1 1/4 c. AP flour. 6 T cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch slices. 1/4 c cold vegetable shortening, cut into 2 pieces. 2 T cold vodka. 2 T cold water. 1 c heavy cream. 1 c whole milk (I used 2%). 3 large eggs and 2 large yolks.

Best of Monterey County. A Farm Stand Thanksgiving. Check out this map. You've got Monterey Bay on the left, what is probably Elkhorn Slough up top, and Highway 1 going up the center. That star-arrow thing in the middle is pointing right at one of the neatest/cheapest/diverse produce stands in the whole entire world: Farm Fresh Produce. Check out the Price indicator on Yelp. ONE DOLLAR SIGN. That's not a joke! This place is super duper di doooper cheap! They are actually open 24 hours a day! I bought my ...

Best of Monterey County. Saturday was the OMD - Official Move Day. My dad and Kyle helped pack up an Explorer, my Mazda, and a baby semi. It all fit! They were both so helpful, I definitely couldn't have moved as quickly if it weren't for them. THANK YOU! The "Big Truck" is so handy LOL. When we got to San Jose, all cars were unloaded and I got to work unpacking. Approximately 5 minutes later I decided I'd rather bake some cupcakes so I gave up. Dinner was amazing. It was fun to get involved with the...

32 Above - Life in Monterey County: Wild Plum Bakery and Cafe
http://32above.blogspot.com/2010/12/wild-plum-bakery-and-cafe.html
Best of Monterey County. Wild Plum Bakery and Cafe. On Saturday two of my friends from San Jose were in town. Sarah and Brian drove down the night before for their pal's housewarming party. We decided to meet up for lunch and it was my task to find a "cute spot" to blog about! I'm glad Sarah keeps me accountable. But where to go? Little known sandwich spot? Hit up the municipal wharf? A few weeks ago, my friend Maren. Cons: unprofessional, stressed owner, understaffed. Oh Phooey! They don't know anything.

32 Above - Life in Monterey County: Aunt Connie's New Year's Wedding
http://32above.blogspot.com/2011/01/aunt-connies-new-years-wedding.html
Best of Monterey County. Aunt Connie's New Year's Wedding. My mom, sister, and I flew to St. Louis last week for my Aunt Connie's wedding in St. Louis. The whole ceremony was beautiful and it was great to be back with family. My last midwest trip was over 1.5 years ago. Mia and Sam were the adorable flower girls. So cuuuuute. This is one of my favorite pictures - great bouquet action going on. The family, most of it. no, some of it. We are a big family! It wasn't Cinderella castle-like. More medieval?
