Well, here I am with two “weekly instagrams” posts almost back to back. Oops! This week has been a mix of restful days and adventurous days. I’m getting ready to move into a new house, making plans, and creating some stuff for my neglected etsy shop.
1. Last weekend, I went to a tomato festival! Before you gasp and tell me how cool that is, just know that…it wasn’t cool. Sara and I arrived to this thing only to find that it was really an everything-else-festival, and the tomatoes were in a tiny tent at the end of the road called “Tomato Alley.” We did try some tasty tomatoes, so it wasn’t terrible :)
2. After the “festival,” we went to a place called Western Outlaws, aka cowboy boot heaven. I hoped so much to find a pair but they were all very expensive with designs that were too crazy for me.
3. Spent some quality time with Steph and Dan. They are getting married in March and I think they are the best :)
4. A few days later, I happened to find my dream cowboy boots while antiquing with my boyfriend T.J. I was so overjoyed! Seriously. They are perfect.
5. Creating color schemes is the most fun thing to do in the world. So I did that the other morning and it was wonderful.
6 & 7. On Wednesday, T.J. and I spent the evening in Berkeley and pretended to be very hip and introspective (as shown above). We had dinner at my favorite mexican restaurant, Picante. Mmm! It was the greatest time. But then again, I say that about all of our dates.
8. And yesterday, I had dinner with his fam. It was so, so, so delicious and made me want to get off of my “I don’t cook” high horse. We had peach cobbler and ice cream for dessert, which I should’ve also taken a picture of :)
I feel all rambley, like I’m having blogging withdrawals. I’ll get back into the swing of things this week.
ps. There is one more spot open for ad swaps! Check out the blog post below this one if you’re interested.

Tomato festival eh? I once went to a caravan rally (an equally improbable sounding title) and was disappointed to find no caravan racing going on. Hey ho, at least you found some tomatoes.
