August = Diet Month (15) 

New layout
. I really wanted more colors for a change… but then it fades to white because I FAIL!!! Anywho~~ Oh, and this layout looks WAY better in firefox than IE. Just an FYI.
So, August, Mike & I decided on two things. 1: A budget, 2: diets.
The budget because I added up my non-necessary spending for June and crapped my pants at how wasteful I was every month. With the house coming soon I want to save as much as possible above & beyond what we save now. For the house and nice things like a Roomba and expensive fixtures and the wedding AND the honeymoon
. I’d rather buy a lovely 70$ picture frame than get 12 starbuck’s coffees ya know?

Let’s get nostalgic! (31) 

For some time now I’ve been after my Mom to find two boxes of photos I had as a pre-teen. I somehow lost them in the mix of moving and am pretty damn convinced they’re hidden away in my parents’ attic.
So in ‘93 all I wanted for Christmas was a Polaroid Captiva camera. It was awesome. I got it (obviously) and it worked for a good 3 years. During that time I had oodles of photos all stored in 2 Oreo Cookie Christmas Tins.
What’s weird is how both these things are somewhat “vintage” now.
I’m so old… And I still don’t have my photos. I visit my parents in December and really hope to find them then.
I do have this one on me though…
—————————-
Found this too. A photo my Mom took in 1978 of a birdbath she created/painted. It’s a mouse floating down with a leaf.

Also found this photo I took while in Köln, Germany (’00) and noticed the Agfa store and nearly died. OH PAST JEN, I MUST FORCE YOU TO GO INTO THE STORE AND HORDE FILM FOR YOUR FUTURE OBSESSION!!! GAAAH

Lastly, another ‘00 photo. A Polaroid that Mike took of us right before Christmas. We had been dating for about a month…

Blooming or Display Tea (24) 

I meant to blog a list of links I wanted to share. I’ve been obsessed with Japanese LOMO photo blogs lately. Here are a lot I adore. Mostly LOMO & Japanese, mostly :calmair:
- a piece of caramel
- Coeur
- flying fish
- natural days [her flickr!]
- big cat menma [not a LOMO but kitty!]
- aikodon flickr
- kimicon’s flickr
- Romantic Camera [no longer updated]
- pussy crackers*
- 心の音
- kiss our future
- Cameri File
- Toy Photo
Just some photos of Rose of Suzhou Green Tea. A lovely blooming tea from Teavana. I decided to get some for a friend as a Birthday gift too since its flavor is very light. I shouldn’t have to worry about them not liking it.


Oh! And the Onsen powder review page has been updated!
