I’ve been watching her videos for a while

Especially when I’m feeling cold (and it doesn’t really get that cold where I am)

I was watching a video about the cold in Yakutsk, and they said that their school snow days are only when the temp drops below…

I'm doing it again!

#PennePals

Do you want to be my penne pal?

Sorry this is me having Panera today for the first time and then immediately having to have a taco to wash it away

It’s truly amazing to me that Panera has made an empire out of sandwiches that I feel a child can make

Also me: I love classic cars that don’t look at all like today’s cars

reposting this story about food and immigrants in the tenderloin (where I live): i know it very well.

it's basically little saigon on larkin, little lahore on hyde, and there's been a recent proliferation of excellent yemeni businesses as well and also possibly the largest density of mayan food outside of the mission. maybe even larger than the mission? there's a ton of yucatan and other mayan restaurants. even a honduran one.

my pick for fave bÑnh mì: bo&beurre
