Adventures in Philly

Whewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Things got a little crazy this afternoon in the park. We tried really hard to be normal but….it’s hard.

This is how I prefer to wear my hair when I go out. If you didn’t know already, this style was just featured in the latest issue of Vogue.
IMG_8253
That was a little better.

Clearly it was a fashion show.
And lunch, obviously, was amazing. Sabrina took us to DeBruno’s and I almost freaked with all the options! In the end, I chose three little dishes from the hot bar.

Two little grape leaves:

Gigantic beans in tomato sauce:

And some roasted veggies.

After lunch we walked 5000 blocks to Phileo frozen yogurt (actually we walked four blocks and then took a cab but that just sounded cooler). It was so awesome to meet some of y’all and I was so excited we had such a great turnout!

I then stole a baby.

He’s coming back to California with me…..his mother told me it was fine.

Okay fine. I put him back where I found him. Happy now?

    Babies. Amazing. For like, five minutes and then I definitely want to give them back! Oops.

    Looks like you’re having so much fun — giant beans and stuffed grape leaves both look amazing! Please find the place I had a mojito when I was there and get one…it was life changing. Just need to remember the name of it now…small details!

    You can take Mason anytime you want! He’s very good and will know how to do dishes and laundry in about 10 years. Good deal, no? It was great meeting you today! I think I need to lay off feeding Mason carrots, because his nose is as orange as his hair in these pictures!

    Glad it was a fun meet up! Cute baby! I’d steal him too.

    Luckily my niece and nephew are 7 months old and I can steal them anytime I want to. =)

    I’ve never actually thought about ever visiting Philadelphia, but from the pictures it sure does look like a beautiful city.

    Do you do much to your hair as far as styling goes? I think your cut is cute and I am thinking about having something similar (with bangs) but I’m a “wake-up, brush hair and go” type of girl.. I don’t use any products besides shampoo and conditioner!

    I am so glad you are having the great opportunity to experience Philadelphia! Today as Bolt Bus jetted me across the Ben Franklin bridge I realized how much I miss Philadelphia. I moved to NYC a year ago and while it has it’s perks it definitely doesn’t have the Rocky Steps, Boathouse Row, BYOB restaurants, or Sabrina! 🙂

    Have fun!!

    Hmm . . . it could have been entertaining if you had kept him 😉 But he probably would have missed his mama eventually. Looks like you guys are having a blast!
