Kealoha's Profile

I gotta say, folks- I'm horrified to hear that there are so many people out there who want to receive gifts but can't be bothered to write a thank you card to the person who gave it to them. If you *see* the person (or call them) and *say* it, that's fine; the card thing is an ettiquette hold over from pre-telephone days, as a way to let a distant well-wisher know that their gift was received and the gesture appreciated.

I have one from Bodum that I love (http://www.amazon.com/Bodum-Chambord-5-Ounce-Milk-Frother/dp/B000QEEI5I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1359344235&sr=8-1&keywords=bodum+milk+frother). I fill to the line with 2% and microwave for a minute (while the k-cup is brewing!); works beautifully every time. :)

Ummmm, you've got a typo in the last sentence: it should read "...Etsy seller punkassjim". :)

One thing that always helps to wake me up in the morning is taking my dog for a walk- we take a loop up through the park and back (about 30 minutes) and when we get home, both of us are ready for some breakfast. :)

Me, me, me, pick me! We have a big open meadow and a park nearby- a perfect spot for a hive of honeybees...

This is the cover I've got; soft embossed leather outside, soft nappy suede inside. It doesn't fold up into a roll the way the Apple Smart Cover does (which I prefer anyway- more like a real book cover), but it's got the nifty magnetic strip on the outer edge to hold it shut and activate the auto-sleep functionality. Bonus: "Electric Library." :)

Just want to reiterate the fact that this blog post's headline is misleading- Fairey's facing jail time for knowingly falsifying documents related to a legal proceeding. The copyright issue was settled out of court: http://paidcontent.org/article/419-the-associated-press-shepard-fairey-reach-settlement-in-fair-use-lawsui/

Oh, to have *anything* within walking distance, let alone friends and/or restaurants. Stupid suburbia...

OMG, I could make you a list that would take weeks just for Melbourne! Be sure to grab some flake & chips, lots of cappuccinos dusted with cocoa powder, and a fresh, hot waffle from the cart in DeGraves. If you hop the train out to Yarraville (just past the showgrounds), Bopha Devi has the best Cambodian food in town, and you can finish the evening with a choc top (chocolate dipped ice cream cone) and a movie at the Sun Theater! Pretty much any random cafe will give you a great brekkie (breakfast), but I always recommend getting one that comes with roasted tomatoes and sauteed mushrooms... :)

Side note: I wouldn't bother with pizza or Mexican restaurants in Melbourne. The pizzas always tasted like saltines with ketchup and ham, and speaking as a Southern California transplant, the Mexican seasonings were way off...

Ditto the request for Boardwalk Empire inspiration! :)
