Shopping for a car. My preferences would be for a BMW Z3 or Z4 or Audi TT. I like Mazda Miatas too, but they're a little light and crushable considering how many bad drivers are out there.

With turkey in abundance, picked one up for $3.98 at Safeway and cooked it up for a week's worth of post-Thanksgiving sandwiches. Almost cut my finger off in the process of slicing tho.

This bat was among the many rice-filled figures Edward Gorey stitched up to coincide with his dark/humorous illustrations. Part of the John A. Carollo collection at the University of Hawaii at Manoa Library's Special Research Collections, on view at the UH Art Gallery through Dec. 10, 2010.

Dinner at Le Bistro included this Penn Cove mussel and Manila clam fricassee.

Happy Thanksgiving, gobble gobble! Cajun turkey.

Met accessory designer Emm Kuo on Twitter, and in person. She's showing one of her Spring/Summer 2011 exotic skin handbags.

Took in the "Salud Y Vida" fall/bridal collection by Manila-based designer Renee Salud at Hawaii Prince Hotel.
