Last night…hanging with some handsomes

Hanging out with The Californian last night at Milk Bar on Haight. I hear they’re gonna cover “Boyz II Men” soon. I LOVE these guys!

Sixth annual CAROLING birthday for Wendy

Yes indeed, it’s been six years since we’ve been making the neighborhood a better place. This year was unprecedented. We received such appreciative responses, 100%, from everyone we sang to. We were so touched. A lot of our favorite households from yesteryear weren’t home but we met a bunch more who were absolutely delighted with us. And when I say “delighted,” I’m not kidding around. I would put sparkles around the word “delighted’ if I knew how, but yes, this years’ responses were twinklingly stellar. Here are the small handful of pictures I took. The best depiction will be Kylie’s video. I know she’s been busy last-minute Christmas shopping, so her video won’t be ready today but stay tuned people, it’s coming, and will make you super jealous. Feel free to admire Kylie’s video from Wendy’s caroling birthday last year as a preview of how this year’s video may turn out.

Snowy weather caroling! No, not really. Just grainy camera-work. It was still very fulfilling. With our voices and musical talent, who needs the snow?

We ended on a high-note because awesome Indian food was beckoning us to headquarters.

Most importantly, don’t forget, it’s Wendy’s birthday!

A BIRTHDAY BABY ANGEL got in front of my camera?

Let’s make this an activity for you readers. Here are two group photos. What’s different between the two? I mean, there’s plenty different, but tell me, what’s the MAIN difference? Hint: It has nothing to do with the lighting.

Time to enjoy the cake. It’s not just any cake. It’s a Chinese cake that’s “not too sweet.”‘ We got it from Sweeties Bakery in Gardena and I highly suggest you get yours there too.

Regina handles that cake with a purpose

Did you notice that fine instrument Regina was handling a couple photos above? Here’s a close-up:

FYI, it’s “gao-ji,” which means “luxurious.” If you’re not sure, just check the packaging –
It says “gao ji” right on the package. It must be luxurious.

This means, here’s a Chinese lesson:

“gao ji” is LUXURIOUS

“dan gao” is CAKE

“dao” is KNIFE

So, now you know how to say “luxurious cake knife”!

Lookalike: EVA Airways model and John

I love lookalikes. Who doesn’t? I’ve had requests to post lookalikes between celebs but I keep it real here. I only post lookalikes about people I know.
As I kind of mentioned earlier, I was in Taiwan recently. We flew on EVA Air. EVA is awesome. Who else would own a gate at the airport that’s completely Hello Kitty?

As I always do on flights, I delved into the in-flight magazine. This time, it was the EVA Air Verve magazine. As I flipped through the half-English-half-Chinese articles, I discovered this EVA Airways ad

and instantly had the following thought:

The man himself, John, has told me that he was a little freaked out about how much this dude looks like him.
