Goodbye Black Cat

One of my absolute favorite West Philly shops is closing, the Black Cat gift shop. So sad! After a tasty dinner at the White Dog Cafe stepping into the Black Cat has always been one of my favorite things. I've found so many exciting quirky gifts there, it will be missed.

Love them buttons.

And, we're back!

This blog was originally begun while taking a course and therefore maintained for a credit - ugh! Now I've decided to make it my own and for my own purposes and interests :) Hooray! This means, expect recipes, photos, and more in the future. Exciting!

My sis and her good friend Janelle came for a visit over the weekend. We enjoyed a whirlwind tour of the city including the PMA, Chinatown, Fabric Row, and many midtown shopping areas including Buffalo Exchange, Urban, Benjamin Lovell. We wrapped up the day with delicious gelato at Capogiro on 20th St. http://www.capogirogelato.com/ YUM!

phew.

i finished my last story telling assignment this evening. now the only thing standing in the way of finishing the semester is this darn html assignment. i'll get it done, i'm just grumbling at bit.

the power was out on our street for a few hours so no that i've got an internet connection again i can get back into it. i've made a new draft on google creator that i like much more than what i fashioned on amaya. unfortunately, i don't see the obvious way to save the code in google creator. i've got to keep working on it, i'm certain the solution will surface.

i'll be in germantown all morning at st. vincent's (summer reading outreach). then, off to see apartments in the pm. this weekend i'm challenging myself to finish the last bit of the html work and put my portfolio together.

i'm in a no cap mood.

good night!

I've still got a bunch to do but here is version 2.0 of my layout...

Pic-ish

Now that I've got everything uploaded, files shared and what not I'm not able to see the picture from Pitt's site...urg.

I'll see what I can do.

Solution

To fix my misalignment issues with the pic I decided to scrap the idea and mix a paint background I call "old book beige".
