whew!

well, lee started a new job on monday. what a relief! it's at smma and he'll be working on schools for now. much better than the retail work he wasn't loving :) so to celebrate, i went out an bought myself a new coat! okay--not really to celebrate, but i never buy myself new clothes and it was super cute! mine is just white with black, blue and red kind of pattern stripes on it. i will never be able to wear it in savannah because it was 81 degrees today and will be in the upper 70s until xmas, but i will wear it on my trip home to boston so lee doesn't have to meet me with parka in hand...

anyway...

it's good to have good news to post.

also, last weekend, jessica and i went to charleston, sc. it was beautiful and way more interesting than savannah. the downtown is just bigger and far more developed. we had some fantastic food at a restaurant called alluette's cafe. alluette herself came out of the kitchen to talk to us and what she serves is "holistic soul" food. and she welcomes vegans and vegetarians alike and will make something special for you that's not specified on the menu. also, she has a relationship with a local organic farm and the vegetables she has everyday is what she gets from him. so if it ain't in season, she don't got it... the place was fantastic!

if you go to charleston, please eat here and support good local business :) jessica and i will be going back.
