Octopussssssssssss...


Spent the day on 4th Street in Berkeley with the Lunch Ladies making an octopus in John McRae's Magical Octopus class at Castle in the Air. If you are into making crafts, or just like to look at weird fairy-tale stuff, Castle in the Air is a grand place to go.

Now I am home ofter a hard day's work making objects with lots of glue and glitter, and my new octopus is apparently trying to eat my laptop. It must like antiques.

Oh, and I went an had a beer with Jen, and then we walked up Piedmont Ave and drifted into Mr Green Bubble, a new bubble tea place with very helpful people who gave us free cake and two bubble teas for one with our purchase of spicy deep-fried calamari for $3.99. Everything was delicious, but in retrospect I have to say that to any self-respecting gourmand eating those items together would be anathema.

Mr Green Bubble has been open less than a week. I recommend them. Also, they are open until 12 on weekends, so I bet they will be a beacon of light to all the drunks who totter out of the bars in the late evening and can't get a table at Dopo...
