IF - "Tea"
Here's a throwback from a local dim-sum restaurant. So far I've been recommended to check out one restaurant in Alemeda, San Francisco, and Toronto (thanks Terry). Any additional recommendations are welcomed.

Sketchcrawl 8 (part 2 of 2)
We were graced with the sun for a moment, but the snow began to fall again. After the lesson, I headed over to a bench to lay down some colors...the snow actually added a cool effect on my thumbnail sketch (similar to adding salt).
After 4 hours on the slope, we were beat and ready to call it a day. Everyone took a 30 minute break for a dose of Motrin and to re-hydrate before we headed back home.
Since the Okuda's couldn't make the trip with us, they were so kind to have dinner ready for us when we returned. Agatha and her mom were way too kind in preparing all those delicious dishes. Thank you!
I wish we could have hung out a bit longer, but we were all exhausted...so one more game of Donkey Kong Congo then I definitely need to get back home.
I was hoping to end the night watching "Lady Vengence", but decided to take care of my pile of laundry.
Good night, and hope everyone had a nice, long President's Day weekend!

IF - Just a "Simple" morning

Illustration Friday - "Chair"
It was Super Bowl Sunday, but we decided to work on a couple projects in the apartment instead. Our project list included: assembling 2 book shelves, 1 bathroom shelf, and painting our entertainment center...not in that order of course. It was more like...add the first coat of paint, start building the first book shelf, grab some coffee, add the second coat, build the second book shelf, etc. We did encounter a few paint problems, so that set us back in drying time. Thank goodness the sun was out in Marin County, a steady mid-70's all afternoon. We finished up around 9:00pm...we were sooo "pooped". The night ended by relaxing on our comfy couch and watching some TV..."Elf" to be more specific. That Will Farrel kills me.
Because I missed Sketchcrawl #7 on Saturday, I just had to sketch something before going to bed...I had to open up 3 heavily taped boxes just to find my watercolor brush but I managed sqeeze this quick little sketch before going to sleep.
