Second time at King's Hawaiian Cafe & Shore good.

The second time I ate at King's Hawaiian Bakery & Cafe, I tried their breakfast.

The first time I blogged about in my food blog: To Be.

We started with the Spam Musubi, which was good.
The pickles were a nice palate cleansing touch.

The french toast was a good size, but I wish it came with more breakfast-y stuff and fruit.

Butter, I love it.

Tea Time with Ying~>

Recently, although not recently enough, I finally had Afternoon Tea with Ying!

The first time we had tea and snacks at Crown & Crumpet, Ying saw their High Tea and said, "Next time we need to do that."

Well, we finally did that at Tealist, one of my favorite Tea places.
We were both dressed up rather casually, considering another time when we hung out at SacAnime.

We ordered Strawberry Green Tea & Ceylon. They were good. Everything was good. Tealist is very precise about tea steeping times and temperatures.

Baby, the Stars Shine Bright event with Masumi Kano~>

This Wednesday, Baby, the Stars Shine Bright, San Francisco had a party with designer Masumi Kano!

The shop's Facebook album of this event.

My Perspective:

You're Invited!

This event was special for many reasons. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision to go on a Wednesday night. But, I was excited to meet Masumi Kano. Also, it was catered by Crown and Crumpet, which is transitioning to its new location, so eating their food is a much rarer treat until Spring 2013.

I rushed to Baby*s shop after work and quickly shopped. I bought these lovely earmuffs, the fur pattern for which I have been Fawning over for a while now. I want to buy all the Fawned items!

I used them immediately.

(Kano-san noted my Gloomy hat! I replied, yes it's from the Apron Set, but she probably already knew.)

The no photography restriction was lifted for one night only, so I got some snaps of the shop. As expected, the decorations and food were all quite lovely, and pink!

Teacups match my dress!

Three types of Tea were served: Paris black, Green something and Fruit Tea...I forgot the names,  but the tastes are unforgettable~

And yes, the food was as good as it looks! I usually post food on my food blog, but in this case the food was a major portion of the ambiance.

I was too slow for a nibble of the Macarons...o the Madness!

I Savored it all!

My Savories~

Desserts, unafraid of my Mouth!

The Pink and Green layered Petit Four is new, raspberry and green tea pouf of yum.

I tread carefully with the tea, so many beautiful clothes.

I saw many familiar faces, which I hadn't seen in a while. I also met new friends, whom I hope to get to know better.

Sweet Gwendy.

Masumi Kano was very nice. She milled around and spoke with the attendees.

We had an autograph and photo session, and afterwards an informal Question and Answer session.

She also handed us the Necklace Gift for attending. I was thinking of this Limited gift the entire drive...

Yes, Baby*s has the key to my Heart...

Of course, put it on right away.

Group photo! I am sad I didn't meet every lady. Soon.

Macaron Madness Continues~>

One Wednesday, I wore my new Frill Macaron skirt for the first time! I named this outfit KnitWit, because it has many knit elements.

Like I mentioned in my blog about the hNaoto party that Monday, I've been wanting this print for a while. It's my Birthday and Christmas present to myself. Birthmas. Actually, during the party, Naoto-san pointed out that the skirt matched my stockings, which is why I decided to use them again for my first time.

Knit 1$ Cardi!

The Navy blue touches throughout really bring the coordinate together. Been loving Navy recently. Also, this is a super comfortable coordinate, and I can't wait to modify it for Winter weather wear.

Some Hat details, I always have fun arranging.

Knit hat!

Hope you enjoyed this blog. Life's so busy lately, sorry for the delay! Hope everyone's doing what they want, too. Don't forget to tell those you love that you do.
