SXSW ’10 pt.3
Zooey Deschanel of She & Him at, of all places, the Rachel Ray Feedback Party at Stubb’s. I may not be a big fan of her cooking, but I have to admit ol’ Rachel did put on one hell of a fun slate of live music.

SXSW ’10 pt.2
Ah, the irony of traveling all the way to Texas to get turned onto an LA band. That said, I’m still glad though that I stumbled upon these angelinos, Chasing Kings, at The Rumble yesterday. With a front man that’s eerily reminiscent of a redheaded Chris Martin, I would not be surprised in the least if these guys have a bright future ahead of them.

Surprise!
Here’s a shot of my dad as he walked in on the waiting surprise party to celebrate his turning 60. He had absolutely no idea that fifty or so of his closest friends and family were in on the surprise, and it showed. He must have stood in that doorway for a good thirty seconds, speechless. It was a moment I’ll never forget, nor will he I would imagine. Kudos to my mom for pulling the whole thing off without him catching a whiff of it.
Oscar Party
Every year, Kim and I host an Oscar party where we entertain our friends with themed-dishes based on that year’s best picture nominees. Given that the Academy changed the number of nominees from 5 to 10 this year meant that the gauntlet was kind of thrown down for us yesterday. We managed to pull it off though, and I’d like to think we came up some good ones, that didn’t taste too bad either.
Like the above, named after the best picture winner The Hurt Locker, we present The Herb Popper. The recipe is up on Kim’s blog.

Hualalai
Today is Kim’s birthday, and to celebrate I thought I’d post one of my favorite photos that I’ve ever taken of her. The above was back in ’05, when we were lucky enough to take a trip together to the Four Seasons on the Big Island, courtesy of my old boss.
Happy Birthday, Pahu i’a!
