every evening and morning i check the weather out online. i know, i know. it may not seem out of the ordinary for most people, but if you come from a place like hawai’i where the weather is pretty even all year around {no planning on how many layers to pile on}, well. i was really excited because i thought it would get warm this week. of course, when i checked this morning the forecast had been off and is now going to be cooler than i hoped for {but i think i see the sun}. so i thought i’d go pretend i was back home and see what’s new at fighting eel. here’s a peek from their spring collection…

i have been really fortunate to have made some really great friends since moving to san francisco. my best friend here {who is actually my best friend ever} just had something sad happen and that just kills me. i just love and respect her and admire her so much that i just want to be there and do anything i can to make her smile or hopefully ease her pain. although i’ve known her for just about a year she has been so supportive of me and kind and seen me through quite a bit already. so as i was thinking about her today {and sending her fun little video clips that i hoped might cheer her up} i found some great things that reminded me of her. because she’s the best, really, and she really hearts hearts…
