Mission Mission

But I missed the Nobunny/Dreamdate show. Was it epic? Should I cruise up to Sacramento tonight and catch it at the Hub?

Thanks, Raun!

We Built This City captured this stunner of a shot today.

Seems like only yesterday I was marveling at the glories of that grand old place.

Not awesome at spelling though.

Today over at the Bold Italic, Kelly Malone of Indie Mart tells us about her love life:

There’s a taboo to the term cougar, much like the played out “hipster” tag. No one actually  wants to be called one, myself included. However, I  am 36 and dating guys a decade younger.

Let me point out, I have nothing against guys my age, and I don’t rule them out. But it’s funny (as they say) that as I get older, the dudes I’m dating stay the same age. I’m drawn to the hallmarks of these 20-somethings – the sound of skateboard wheels coming down the street, the sight of postgrads paying for their coffee with quarters. I don’t need a financially secure, established guy. I need adventure!

Adventure is the best! Read on!

From Publisher’s Weekly:

Another book on the imprint’s inaugural list is Mission Street Food: Recipes and Ideas from an Improbable Restaurant by Anthony Myint and Karen Leibowitz, who founded Mission Street Food, a pop-up restaurant in San Francisco. Myint now runs Mission Chinese Food, which, though not quite at Momofuku’s level, has achieved a sort of cult following among San Francisco foodies. Juliet Litman, publicity director for McSweeney’s, said the $30 hardcover, which pubs in late June and does not have a tech component, “will be a totally new take on the food book style, including recipes, instructions on how to run a profitable and charitable restaurant, and much more.”

Can’t wait! Read on for more on the new McSweeney’s cookbook imprint.

Look at these cool looking Swedes! Fashionist managed to snap some pics and chat them up a bit during their visit to the Mission. Now let’s all put on some Little Dragon and read all about it.

It was reported a couple weeks ago that the old Delano’s space was close to becoming a Fresh & Easy. Now it appears there’s a new possibility. Reader Lisa C. explains:

Heard from Supervisor Campos’ office last week that there are bids in
from two places to lease the building that was Delano’s: a place
called FRESH AND EASY and then one called Grocery Outlet.

They both seem kinda weird but the latter seems less desireable from
what I’ve heard.  Apparently the contact person in the Mayor’s Office
is Lisa Pagan, in the office of workforce / economic development or
something like that.

I wonder when the public hearing is?

Yes, I wonder.
