Taste the Rainbow

It was so cold, I couldn't feel my face and my fingers were numb, even though I was wearing two pairs of gloves (hence my rather plump digits lqtm). T_T There was a cold advisory and many outdoor events that had been scheduled for that night had been cancelled. So, yeah. It was a serious weather situation.

Picture

Yet, here I am. Outside. Why? >_< Haha. Well, because it was the weekend and I had felt really cooped up in the apartment. I study basically 45 to 50 hours each week. That doesn't leave a whole lot of time for, you know, being outside and all that. Heh. So, when I have the time to spare, I try to take advantage of it. By the time we arrived at our brunch spot (one of my favorite vegan restaurants in town), my eyes hurt. I thought they might pop out or something. Haha. So, of course I ordered the pumpkin hot toddy with the top shelf whiskey, because by Zeus I had f*cking earned it! Should have ordered two! >:P

Picture

At any rate, we had a rad breakfast and then hit up the booze store on the way back for a nice red wine. We had half a pack of some mulled wine mix that I just didn't have the heart to leave behind when we moved. We had given our downstairs neighbors all kinds of food and even gave away a lot of our alcohol (I was quite sad to part with the latter, let me tell you heh), but the mulled wine mix went with us.


Picture

We walked as fast as we could back home and I felt like an ice sculpture by the time we made it inside the apartment. So, when my partner handed me a large steaming mug of mulled wine, it was the best, most delicious, most soothing experience of my life. T_T Haha. It made the whole ordeal worth it. <3

I felt like I hadn't worn anything particularly "granny chic" in awhile and I really felt the urge to frump it up, so here we are. ^_^ Despite the desire to be as frumptastic as possible, I also wanted to continue to experiment with bright colors, avoid wearing any black garments (it's tough for me, so tough!) and to push the boundaries of what is acceptable "winter" attire by donning floral patterns more fit for spring.

Nowadays, it seems the only thing that will get me to leave the house is the promise of a warm beverage and something sweet to eat. Haha. It's like the carrot on a stick. I just dangle the prospect of yummies in front of myself just long enough to get me out of the house and straight to my intended destination. Not only does it get me some much needed fresh (albeit f*cking crazy cold) air, it also serves as excellent motivation to snap pictures as fast as possible so we can keep our legs moving and our bodies warm enough for the journey ahead. The faster we walk, the sooner I get my tasty donuts.

Oh and they were tasty indeed! Also, thank you to the barrista at Outpost Coffee for making one of the best flat whites I've ever had. You are a king among kings, sir. A gentleman and a scholar. I tip my hat to you. Nice bow tie, too, btw. ;) At any rate, how are you guys fairing with the colder weather? I mean, is it just me or does this suck major balls, you guys? Haha. Check out this cold weather protest right in my backyard (so to speak) on Queen St W. 'Hey! Hey, ho! This cold weather has got to go!' >=D

    Hi! I'm Anna <3

    I'm fond of artistic fashion, esoteric music, retro games (the older the platform, the better), delectable noms, good libations, my Maine Coon, Bonaparte, and my Tabby, Winsome.

    Also, I attended university in Hyogo Prefecture and I am proficient in Japanese.
