i watched the documentary girls rock recently, initially for the carrie brownstein factor, and because if i were 8-18 and living in the us, i’d be hassling my parents to let me go to summer rock camp. maybe if i had inspiration like that, i’d have had a head start on the things i’m only doing now…
i spent my weekend mostly at the markets in town, sitting at our collective zine table. i like this new methodology of using my time, although on Saturday I forgot to bring something with me to do, and after I finished reading one of ianto ware’s zines, I was kinda searching for something to do inbetween. Sunday I wisened up and brought maybe too much stuff, but I made a ‘what are zines’ flier to give to the uninitiated, and wrote a couple of letters. fliers were photocopied, and letters sent, and Russian fried bread filled with blueberries were eaten!
I need to find out the name of this food. the fried part taste reminds me of chinese haam chim peng – except there’s usually yellow bean paste or red bean inside for our versions.
I also want to find the fabled banh mi thit, but I’ve never seen Vietnamese places selling them here. only rice paper rolls, in terms of cheap lunch food.
enough food talk or I’ll be looking for a midnight snack.
