This week I’ve been inspired by big and outrageous shoes.
Highlights this week… I turned 21 this week and I don’t feel a whole lot older, but grateful for good friends and good food! I went out one of my favourite restaurants, Tanuki’s Cave which is a Japanese Yakatori style restaurant. This means ordering plates of nibbles on skewers, and sharing it around. It’s a fun way to do dinner, and I’m kicking myself because I completely forgot to take photos…
Here’s a picture I found online:
Otherwise this week has mostly been about studying – but with the last exam for this semester on Monday I’ll be glad to welcome a well deserved break.

I keep running into cats. DreamCats is a cute Tumblr, bringing you cats in soft focus, and ever since I ‘Liked’ Next Top Cat Model on Facebook I’ve been delivered daily doses of cat model goodness right to my news feed. Cute as.

A few weeks ago when I was setting up my website, I was looking into getting my domain and hosting through godaddy.com. Luckily, I couldn’t find a hosting package I liked and went with one I had used before. I feel like I dodged a bullet!
Those shoes are definitely what I’ll be dreaming about tonight. Must have!
Tanuki’s Cave sounds fabulous, and thanks for the great links!
