Happy Father’s Day to the most fun person I know. Thank you for all of the laughs, advice and help throughout the years. I honestly don’t know where I would be without your love.

blue bottle vietnamese coffee ice cream @ humphry slocombe…
We are rarely that deep in the Mission (24th & Harrison), so I took the opportunity to hit up Humphry Slocombe before a show at the Brava Theatre. Although the line wasn’t anything compared to BiRite Creamery, the staff took a lot more time to dole out ice cream to customers.
Since it was included in the 7×7 Big Eat 2013 list, I chose the Blue Bottle Vietnamese coffee ice cream. Although it was good, I wasn’t blown away. I normally like Blue Bottle’s iced coffee but didn’t feel enough of it in the ice-cream. Humphry Slocombe’s Secret Breakfast ice cream is much more interesting and different, which I recommend trying instead.
new look…
With #altnyc just around the corner, I thought a little logo refresh was in the books. After taking an Alt Summit channel class earlier this week on business card design, I was more than inspired to get a new look together. I played around with a few color options but kept reverting to the classic black and white. Very chic and clean with a fun scripted ampersand.
black and white envy…
Ollie & Seb’s Haus recent living room pictures are a monochromatic dream. Not only do I love the painted white floors and simple black decor pieces, but the ‘Le Chat’ print has me written all over it.
small talk vineyards…
Thanks to one of my favourite reads the dieline, I discovered the clever and cute branding of Small Talk Vineyards. The wine is from the Niagara region in Ontario, Canada (yay!) and the branding/packaging was designed by Brandever from Vancouver, Canada (double yay!).
It is the perfect wine to gift a hostess or to plop down at a dinner table as a conversation piece. The handwritten font and fun sayings add an eclectic personal touch.
