Color Practice

Sadly I can't crop. I've been soo tech unsavy lately. My spelling has also gone crap. So has my grammer.

Color

I was going through my photos and found these two. The first photo was taken in Paris and the second is actually the entrance of Ra Sushi. I'm so happy that I took these shots. I will try to have my camera with me everywhere I go. Hope you enjoy them!

Color Me Happy!

Wish: A flat in Spain

When I saw this feature in the UK Elle Decoration, I instantly saw myself in this flat. The flat was owned by a husband and wife team of architects in Barcelona, Spain. Unfortunately, they didn't photograph the bathroom nor the kitchen and therefore made this residence seem more like a gallery than a home. Nonetheless, I can envision making this as one of my homes.
I can imagine me rifling through my bag and feel the texture of my large, ancient keys at the bottom of my purse.
The mix of old and new enhances the character of the flat.
The rustic details; for instance, the exposed stone walls, beams, and wood-panel floors create a more inviting feel to the austere placement of furniture.

There is sophistication in the randomness of the pieces.

Color. Needs more color.

Snap Happy Sartorialist

I found this diagram of "How to get photographed by the Sartorialist". For those of you who don't know, the Sartorialist is an Indiana-born-New-Yorker that photographs "inspirational outfits" in New York and posts them on his blog, The Sartorialist. His blog introduced me to the World of Blogs and therefore inspired me to start my own. As much as I love the Startorialist, I find his subjects to be predictable as this diagram has pointed out. Nonetheless, his photos keep me coming back for more!

Best Chinese Food in Glasgow

Best Chinese Food in Glasgow, Chinese Food Glasgow

I am from Houston (home of great authentic Asian Food) and I find that Hong Kong Express on Sauchiehall Street is the Best Chinese Food in Glasgow! It is situated towards the tail end of the city center part of Sauchiehall Street. We were greeted by very friendly staff who were happy to recommend their favorite dishes. One of these dishes was a tofu and fried fish dish. Absolutley brilliant!!! We also had prawn gyoza with a lovely dipping sauce. These are gently steamed and then fried to give a crunchy, moist taste. Another dish to try would be duck soup with noodles. A great accompaniment to the other dishes, as it refreshes your pallet in between bites!
They also offer a great range of traditional asian drinks.

There are many other great dishes to be sampled at Hong Kong Express and just one of the many reasons why we go back as often as possible.
