The Weekend Haps

Things have been a bit crazy the past few days for Lar and me – a wedding, a funeral, a trip to Montana, and family visiting from Maryland. I have a couple of outfit posts in the works, but for now, here’s a few fun photos from the past week:


A close up of my Toms near an okra plant at Stone Mountain Park.


It doesn’t get more AsianCajun than this: Cafe du Monde chicory coffee sold at a Doraville Asian market.


Our friends’ wedding reception was at Cafe Alsace – one of the sweetest restaurants in downtown Decatur.


Dexin looked gorgeous as a bride, but my bf (who took this photo) was more interested in the French beer at Cafe Alsace, which turned out to taste like a watery Belgium.


We took our aunts out for tea at Dr. Bombay’s in Candler Park.


Dr. Bombay’s might not have the most elegant tea setting, but I love its bird-cage and book-filled interior.

Lar is on her way to Scotland in two days – I’m so jealous! Let’s hope British Airways doesn’t go on strike!


Pin It!

    Wow, I’m jealous! How long will she be in Scotland??

    What a great wedding reception idea. It’s unique and has lots of rock and roll type of character. I agree, she is a lovely bride. I love weddings.

    Was there dancing there? Do you have more photos of the wedding?

    Mae Lu, thereafterish.

    I love your little hints of asian influences in your life. I’m always looking for asian snacks like Pocky and Dim Sum that remind me of my childhood!
