Lunch in the Mission

Alex and I went to Herbavore on Valencia for some lunch. It’s some really yummy (and expensive!) vegan food. My favorite has been the homemade burger sandwich with avocado, side of fries and salad.

Ken Brown

     During my sisters last trip to NYC she went into Kiosk and found these postcards by Ken Brown. He’s been making hilarious pop graphics since the 80s. They are famously on postcards. So when she was in the store, he just happened to be there so she asked him to sign one for [...]
