this is what my august looked like:
 |
| me finally getting to try cotton candy grapes . yes. i said cotton candy grapes. grapes that taste like cotton candy! they are only in season for about two weeks each year, distributed by only one grape grower, in california, and they are hard to find! i’d learned about them last year after they were already out of season, and have been waiting to try them. they were delicious! i still have 4 pounds sitting in my freezer so that i can continue to enjoy them. |

| this collage is from my work trip to kansas city. melissa, her husband nick, and another colleague, david, went to see the MLS soccer team, sporting kc play dc united. dc united totally beat them! and what made it an even better night is that the team was staying in our hotel and we ended up spending a little time with the head coach (the guy in the white shirt in the bottom right photo). but of course, the highlight is just always getting to see melissa.:) |
 |
| august also saw my 38th birthday. yowser! i am usually traveling on my birthday and was excited to be home this year. i invited a small group of friends and the donahoo cousins to join me at the iconic (lots of movies have shot here) griffith observatory in los angeles. they were hosting a public star party so many many local astronomers brought their telescopes to share with the rest of us peons. i love the observatory and it was a great way to celebrate with some of my favorite people! |
