Today, I had a few hours to myself so I skated down to Beehive Market (it's new, support it! Saturdays at 1701 San Pablo). I'd been wanting to go for a while now. Beforehand, I checked out some of the regular vendors online. I had my heart set on a paella booth being there, but didn't see it so I stopped at my second choice: Boffo Cart.

I ordered a calzone with roasted, sweet tomatos, brie+genovese basil. Oh my goodness. SO good! My mouth still tastes like bbq brie. I'd intended on nibbling on it while listening to the music playing (local band Du Gris)+putting it in my bag to finish later. I even asked for extra foil for the occassion. It didn't make it a mere 10 minutes before it was completely down my face hole.

The owner is a very nice guy with a cool business+he let me buy one of his heirloom tomato that was kinda on display. Organic foods, he does vegan, he shops locally. He's opening a restaurant in Emeryville (I believe) on September 1. It'll be a regular spot, for sure.

Boffo (of Boffo Cart) means sensation. Indeed.

I went to Outside Lands on Saturday, 8.14.10. Heard great music, drank great wine, made great friends.

I saw:

Dawes

Gogol Bordello

Bassnectar (from  SF)

My Morning Jacket

Beats Antique (from Oakland)

Cat Power

So, so fun.

Shot during Hip Hop in the Park. Laughs for DAYZ. Per the usual.

I get up early so I can get out before everyone else. Try it+I swear you'll feel like the streets are yours.

Love this Kid Sister interview by Seher Sikandar (Bay Area!). My faves:

Q: What was the first song you heard - not yours - that made you feel like it was written for or about you?

A: Dolly Parton - Jolene. Because it's like, please don't take my man just because you can and I'm like - okay.

Q: What would you do as Patty Mayonnaise?

A: I would show Doug what's really going on. [laughs] I'd be like, "yo..."

LOVE.IT.

Checkout the homie Seher. She's hella mulit-faceted.
