Ei yi yi...

What a crazy last three weeks of work! 90 hour work weeks distracted me from Boston updates!

I didn't have much time to explore or eat as I was at the office mostly nonstop. But I tried to make it for it this last weekend.

Posts to come! For now, I'll leave you with this Boston Fire Truck.

Spring Showers

Are sure to bring más flowers!

Disco nap

I've been working nonstop. 'Round the clock. Not rest for the weary. You get the idea.

Hella Wicked's been taking a disco nap for the past few days. Things shall return to normal shortly.

In the meantime, enjoy this pic I snapped at the local karaoke/bowling alley/after work dive called Kings.

Patriot's Day

Yesterday was Patriot's Day. 

Yesterday, I found out what Patriot's Day is. 

It's the best day ever in Boston. PD officially commemorates the anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord - aka the first battles of the Revolutionary War. But, and this is important, unofficially, Patriot's Day marks the funnest Monday of the year. 

The whole city shuts down and hosts the Boston Marathon (in it's 116th year which makes it's the world's oldest marathon). People line the streets to cheer runners on, or watch from above on roof decks. There's fun to be had for all. Yesterday was 88 degrees. Too hot for the runners - yikes! - but amazing for spectators. 

It was a day of stoopin', we started and ended there, sunshine, meeting new people, taking in Boston. 

I'm feeling awfully patriotic today.

Stoop brunch 'n mimosas. (This stoop is my favorite part of my apartment.)

Watch out! This guy hangs around Fenway.

We pedicabbed past this guy.

Roof with a view: Marathoners in 88 degree heat - yikes!

Dressed to the Neons

Well, I think spring is here. 

The Sox opener is today. The Boston Marathon is on Monday. 

People are ready to be OUT AND ABOUT and dressing accordingly. 

Look at these great Bostonians: a friend from work pairs relaxed neutrals with a pop of neon yellow.

Neon to the max!

This nice Parisian man I stopped on the street was following the same spring cues. 

Neutrals with color can be fun. Love his layering and glasses. 

I love how both of them pair traditional structure with relaxed whimsy. Sarah's button up with the flowy maxi pair up perfectly. The Parisian's blazer with his casual scarf and colored pants are trés bien.

Well done today, Boston.

New England Brew

I'm a girl who appreciates a good beer. I'm hometown proud for New Belgium (let's here it for Fat Tire and Sunshine) and Odell (yea Easy Street). Nothing says NorCal like a good Anchor Steam. Yum. 

So I'm having a fun time exploring local brews around New England. 

This one came from our vending machine at work. I hear that nothing says New England like a good ol' Narragansett. Look at that label. Tastes good, too. 

Cheers, New Endland!
