This photo was sent to us by Todd E Bordner of "TnT's Little Things". This is his miniature pool table with peewee marbles for the balls.
It's been ages since I went wandering through Vancouver's Strathcona neighbourhood, but I did find this guy on one of my wanders back in May. I added a different shot of him to my photostream back then, but I figured it was time for another view. May 8, 2009.
Notce that the policeman at left is taking a picture of a tourist on one of the police motorcycles. I don't think I would have ever asked a cop to do that for me.
I had this girl in my head for a while. One day the image was clearer than ever. So I sketched it out while waiting for food in a restaurant. There are a lot of Chinese elements in it, including the colors. Hope you like it. :)
This weekend’s Secret Pickle Supper Club was our most intimate ever and was held at Steeped and Infused. The theme was Tea and we enjoyed a fantastic meal, interesting guests, and a wonderful venue. We couldn’t ask for better.
Jennifer Best, the founder of Steeped and Infused, who educated us about each tea as the course it was used in was presented. Matt did an amazing job incorporating such a complex yet delicate ingredient into each course.
