Posted on November 7, 2012 by KK in 100 things, Berkeley, random.A couple of weeks ago, Dan told me that we were going on a date on a weekend morning, which I completely assumed was code for ‘we’re trying a new brunch place.’ But instead, we walked down to our local park, where we met up with Charles.

Things I have learned from my parents, part 2
Posted on November 3, 2012 by KK in 100 things, family, growing up, lists.I know the idea isn’t to focus on me for my birthday, but I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who called/texted/facebooked/sent a card/came to dinner for my birthday.

Hopefully they know that I appreciate […]

You should read it. In the article, she’s referred to as CJ, which is apparently her New York name. Sort of like her superhero name, but […]

In which I am apparently full of questions
Posted on July 18, 2012 by KK in random, update.I am typing this message to you on my fixed-like-nothing-ever-happened-computer. Everyone tell Dan he’s very handsome and very good at math today. I know that many of you are not impressed by replacing a hard drive and whatnot, but I do not have the desire to learn how to do so, or the patience to […]

Bake 3 new kinds of cookies (#34)
Posted on July 17, 2012 by KK in 100 things, food, lists.I know how disappointed you are that you came to the blog and there is not part 4 of the 2-months-late-new-orleans-photo-essay. This is mostly because I have no more photos. For Valentines Day this year, Dan bought me a new computer (awwwwwww). Then last week in the middle of looking up a recipe online, I […]
