Mikayla Butchart Illustration: April 2013

http://mikaylabutchart.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Some simplified versions of the bridges of the Bay Area that I drew for use in a larger map project. I didn't end up using these, but I think they're kind of nice in their own right. (Looks like I forgot to draw the Dumbarton Bridge, though. Oopsie! Posted by Mikayla Butchart. I am your fanciest, most elderly friend.}. I just finished my second class of a two-session calligraphy workshop at Makeshift Society. With the lovely Maybelle Imasa-Stukuls. And I'm so charmed! Photo by Celeste Noche.

wanderlust: August 2012

http://celesteswanderlust.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html

August 31, 2012. This was the first summer in three years that I wasn't on the other side of the world. I often miss it. Celebrating the 4th of July with whichever Americans we could find, visiting a new village every weekend, speaking in broken Italian and succumbing to miming everywhere else. August 30, 2012. Regardless of what I've read, seen, or heard from anyone else, The Great Gatsby. I'm silly about these kinds of things. So of course we drove up. We found the most picturesque pond, fresh with wil...

wanderlust: October 2012

http://celesteswanderlust.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html

October 31, 2012. October 30, 2012. One Sunday in September, we rented an enormous San Francisco apartment. Invited our friends over, and hosted a homemade ramen family dinner. Ingredients: miso paste (for the broth), nori, ramen noodles, corn, soft boiled eggs, edamame, fish cakes, mushrooms, spicy pepper and oil, and good company. October 24, 2012. Having been to Portland. October 22, 2012. The best part of an early morning flight is the glimpse of dawn, stretching above the clouds. An ode to oakland.

wanderlust: only for today

http://celesteswanderlust.blogspot.com/2013/03/only-for-today.html

March 26, 2013. My grandmother would have been 89 today. I have a small envelope of some of her things. Miscellany, mostly. Notes, a pocket mirror, church brochures, a bobby pin. There's also a small stack of worn cuts of binder paper. You can tell they were held and read over and over- she hand wrote about a dozen prayers and would read from these throughout the day. I miss her. Her delicate cursive is so telling of who she was. They make me cry so I try not to look into this envelope too much.

wanderlust: June 2012

http://celesteswanderlust.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

June 29, 2012. I don't know how often newspapers, magazines, and the food world come to Wolfe's- or that they do at all. It's a modest little diner in Potrero, quiet and unassuming. They serve anything from breakfast to burgers, but we come for the Korean. We're really fortunate to have fresh lunches at work but sometimes you just need to get out of the office. Wolfe's Lunch has become our go-to: Amy gets the bulgoki and I get veggie bibimbap. Sometimes Etan and Pauline come along, too. June 27, 2012.

wanderlust: January 2013

A hot pot dinner. January 30, 2013. Even before we'd planned any weekend activities, we knew we wanted to cook the majority of our meals in our listing. Hot pot was Norris and Kevin's idea- they both brought up their portable pots and heating plates as well as the plethora of ingredients to toss in: spinach, carrots, rice noodles, tofu, thinly sliced beef and lamb, three types of mushrooms, and all the ingredients to make our garlic-green-onion-spicy-soy-sauce mix. January 28, 2013. January 25, 2013.

wanderlust: September 2012

http://celesteswanderlust.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html

The bridge to nowhere. September 27, 2012. After a day at the beach, we took a sunset bike ride to "the bridge to no where." From what I gathered, it was a project left unfinished once funds ran out. We took advantage of the abandoned bridge and sat along the railing to sip $3-buck-chuck (don't get me started) and look out onto the marshes. September 26, 2012. Savannah and Rebecca took me out to Sullivan's Island and we floated along the sandbars in perfect, late summer weather. I don't remember my h...

San francisco hotspots for suitcase magazine. April 1, 2013. Not only am I super excited to have some photos up over at Suitcase Magazine. The entire project was so much fun because I got to work with my dear friend Christian. Who happens to have impeccable taste). I'm really looking forward to working with this team again soon.
