Happy Hexmas!
by angeliska on December 26, 2008
If you haven’t guessed by now, I really get into holidays- in my own peculiar way. I just enjoy the idea that a day, or series of days is extraordinary and to be a reason to celebrate and enjoy any (…)
Winter Solstice – Dark Season
by angeliska on December 21, 2008
Tonight we will celebrate the Winter Solstice, hopefully under the stars with good friends around a roaring fire- mugs of something steaming and spicy in our hands. Right now it’s so cold and blustery outside that my hands are almost (…)
Imps of Winter
by angeliska on December 20, 2008
The other morning when I awoke, a cloud had fallen to earth and everything was enveloped in a thick haze. It made everything seem especially ghostly and mysterious, as if a winter spell had been cast by mischievous imps intent (…)
Crimson Meteors
by angeliska on December 15, 2008
Last night we went to see the Golden Dragon Acrobats at the Paramount Theatre. Oh heavens, they were so incredible! I have rarely seen such feats of daring, grace and strength performed so playfully and (apparently) effortlessly. I want to (…)
Gypsy Honeymoon
by angeliska on December 8, 2008

The Barbary Coast
by angeliska on November 9, 2008
On Tuesday, my sweetheart and my grandfather and I are going to San Francisco for a week! It’s strange to think that it has been nearly a year since I visited San Francisco! So much has happened in that time, (…)
Summerfluff
by angeliska on July 2, 2008
About a week ago, I set out on an adventure.. I intended it to be only a minor one- Black Sabbath Brunch at Dominique’s house and then a little junking at the Citywide Garage Sale.. I was a wee bit (…)
San Frantastical!
by angeliska on December 3, 2007
Roasting ducks and painted ladies. I had not visited San Francisco in twenty-one years. Not since I was seven and I went with my grandparents who lived in Los Angeles. I remember hills and pretty houses, yes. We went to (…)
