charlottesville in september

i do quite a bit of traveling for work in the fall, which is undoubtedly the best perk of my job.  my two and a half month journey began last week with a quick trip to los angeles, followed by a visit to charlottesville, virginia to see an old college friend/roommate (see? it's not all work). cali and i packed up a little picnic and headed to the king family vineyards on sunday to watch a polo match--a first for me.  we sprawled out on a blanket and drank a bottle of the king family's finest red... nevermind that we only caught the last five minutes of the polo match. ha.

 cali and her sister ashley are two truly talented ladies, who started their own photography business a couple years ago. check out (once like a spark) to see just how amazing they really are.

williamsburg's waffle & wolf

my dear friends daniel and arman recently opened a specialty waffle shop off graham avenue (corner of withers) in williamsburg called waffle & wolf.  you can either create-your-own sweet/savory waffle or choose from their list of daily (ingenious) specials.  they're now serving waffles with bacon baked in (yum!) and vegan/gluten-free buckwheat waffles (also yum!). with so many tasty options, their waffles break out of the typical breakfast stronghold and make for a delicious meal any time of day. so, go now. make haste!
