August Favorites! 2014.

I'm getting back to it starting with this post. - expect a reorg. of kibsta.com shortly.

Thing to watch : Naked and Afraid.
I was recently introduced to this show by someone who I think has great taste in television, and I am yet to be disappointed. If you were unfamiliar like me, here’s all you really need to know about it. Two people, a man and a woman, are dropped off at an undisclosed location. They must immediately strip, pick up their pre-picked item of their choosing, and survive for twenty-one days…at the end of which they must venture to an “extraction” point where they will be taken home, should they make it. It’s pretty entertaining, and if it’s on give it a go. That or dating naked, pretty much anything naked really.

Food : full lox on an everything bagel.
Lox today, lox tomorrow, lox forever. We have somewhat of a morning tradition where we roll outta bed after some much needed lounging, stroll downstairs, and immediately order the same thing we order every time we come there (in hopes that they’re deem us as regulars), full lox on an everything bagel.

Movie I Saw : Hercules.
Things we both can’t get enough of, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, need I say more? Okay so there were some scenes that could’ve been a little shorter, mostly just the ones where The Rock isn’t shirtless. I used to watch the tv show, so you could say that I was pretty excited when I found out that they were going to make it into a movie. Great entertainment, not the best storyline but Dwayne makes up for all flaws.

Article of Clothing : My Trusty Green Jacket.
Ever since I bought this jacket I haven’t been able to stop wearing it. There was a week or two when I would keep it in my car just hoping the temperature would dip at night so that I would have an excuse to bust it out.

Cocktail/Beer : no. more. alcohol. 
But if I were to consume it...anything by the Maine Brewing Company. I love the names they give their different beers and the simplicity of their labels. Peeper Ale is my go-to but there are still many I haven't tried!

that and draft beer...of any sort.

New Place : Render.
This is the place that we get the full lox on an everything bagel from. Their coffee is pretty damn good, but the staff is great. Always happy to see you, always pleasant.

Artist : Jay Shells.
You’ve probably seen a picture of his work on the interwebz, or if you’re ever in NYC and now Philly then you can seem them in person as well!

Read : yeah, about that.

Want/Lust : succulents.
You'd think that I'd be able to take care of them...

Man : Roger Federer.
One away from eighteen. His backhand, his forehand, his composure on the court, his hair, his gaze, his composure.


Woman : Venus Williams.

Trend : warm salads.
I recently went to sweetgreen for the first time, and I had a warm salad for the first time. To be more exact it was called an “earth bowl”. I’ve been seeing warm salads all over the place, especially now that the weather is cooling down.

Tip : always leave one (that rule usually almost always applies).

keep it raw.
