Here’s a little more from the See&Jay shoot.  Shout outs to Jenny – owner of See&Jay marketing, stylist and art director, Jaymie Wile – hair and makeup, Annie, Alex and Joy – models.  You folks are so incredible and more importantly FUN to work with.  Thanks to the rest of the crew that helped setting up, getting food and fueling me with beer and champagne.

As all you socalians know, food trucks are all the rage right now.  Most of them have a pretty generic menu consisting of Mexican/American food but one stands out from the rest.  DUMPLING STATION combines authentic Chinese recipes with high quality ingredients to give us, and I quote, “the most savory dumplings in the world”.  Yeah, you heard me.  Instead of the overly complicated, fusion food, hipster trucks, Dumpling Station brings a fresh approach to healthy, mouth-watering Chinese and Taiwanese cuisine. FINALLY!!!!!

Dumpling Station debuted on Jan 30th and held a tasting event in South Pasadena for family, friends and fans. Personally, I don’t think it should have been called a “tasting” event since everyone there couldn’t just leave with a taste — it was so deelish they all wanted more.  Helen, creator and owner of Dumpling Station, busted her ass in the kitchen to provide all the attendees with juicy dumplings and little gifts. Congrats, Helen! <3

guests got a magnet calendar gift! sweet!

sweet treat — chocolate wontons

Though I don’t normally make any New Years resolutions, it’s about time I get in shape and get some sunshine and exercise.  We used to go up to Chantry Flats almost every week but since the fires 2 years ago, they shut down the place for a while so we stopped going.  They’ve reopened so the pops, some friends, and I decided to hike up to the waterfall.  After almost 2 weeks of rain, the rivers were flowing and the air was super crisp. Dozer and Mochi really enjoyed it too…

Hundreds of legendary musicians have graced the stage of The Roxy since its debut in the early 1970s.  Sabrosa Purr is no exception.  Will, Jeff, Angie and Ry don’t screw around…they rocked out with their locks out, literally, and I think only because I had my big camera was I able to make excuses and push through the crowd to capture some wicked shots of them.  I like to describe their music as trippy but I’m sure there’s a better word for it. Think Prince and Jane’s addiction.  Check them out here.

chillin at the rainbow before the show. jeff’s makin’ it rain…
