In California there's something for everyone

For instance...

Do you love sushi but you actually love fried meat by-products? That's OK!
Spam sushi for you.



Have you been traumatized by a rough and tumble hairdresser? Never again!
Gentle Haircuts for you.



Do you know a nine to twelve year old boy who is low on street cred. We can help!
Mob jr. suit and hat for the little guy.





Are you a woman who would like to visit a building only for women and decorated with beautiful women inspired murals?
Well yes, of course. Thank you.






Here are some more beautiful Berkeley colors:





And on another note:

I already have a little place I go to eat called UDUPI. It's a Southern Indian restaurant and one very nice Nepalise waiter has started to treat me like a regular, he even procured me extra soup once when I complimented the chef.



By the way eating alone is no fun. But. I am becoming a master at having fun alone and I have a word of advice for my solo-dining compadres. LEAVE THE BOOK AT HOME. Reading at a restaurant is like trying to do yoga on a roller coaster, just pick one experience and experience it to the fullest degree.In landscape architecture we use a convention called the 'borrowed landscape' which means that you can experience something that isn't yours as if it were. For example, say your neighbor has a lovely Magnolia in their yard. You can create a frame from trees in your yard to capture the view of the magnolia and suddenly that's your tree too. Well I think when dining alone one must borrow conversations, jokes, smells, and dining companions from the other tables, otherwise I wouldn't really feel like I left the house at all.

Well that's a glimpse from Berkeley. Hugs to everyone!
