Takin' it to the Streets

 Some of the best food in SF is being made on the streets. It's not just the tacos and bacon wrapped hotdogs--the streets are scaling it up! I know this isn't just a recent trend, but I have had the pleasure of being introduced to it by helping out my older brother Casey in his pizza-making venture called Casey's Pizza (or to the locals, Casey's Street Pizza).  Casey has been perfecting his pizza making recipe for a few years, and has future plans of opening a restaurant, but for now he is hitting the streets with a Weber Grill. Casey makes his pies with top notch ingredients and a killer crust, and has been getting some rave reviews.  
 Pizza isn't the only delicious food that has been selling.  Casey has been selling with a variety of different vendors, including Nosh This (making some addictive bacon brittle, called Bacon Crack, and a gourmet SF Frito Pie) and Kayvon (a magician in the kitchen that makes Persian and Mayan food--best tacos in SF to date). These street guys are the real deal. Makes me want to make my own stuff on the street.  Anyone interested in Christian's Pasta and Tomato Sauce??
The last two weekends, Casey has been making pizza (pieing?!) at some local open art studio events (Workspace and ArcSF), which have been huge hits. Tonight he is selling at 5PM in Hayes Valley. Follow @caseyspizza for exact location. Pop by and pie it up!

Pink Filosofy

For a fabulous friday I thought "Pink Filosofy" its perfect to end the week with a brush of new style. This Colombian brand just came out to the market with a nice style to wear daily!. Behind the brand is the way they help single mothers by being the ones working on the production process and making the cloth very comfy and fresh.

Take a look and judge yourself...

Tough Mudder race

This past weekend my apartment mates and I took part in the Tough Mudder race (http://toughmudder.com/) at Bear Valley Ski Resort in Northern California.  Tough Mudder is a 7 mile run up and down a ski mountain with 19 different obstacles mixed in throughout the race.  Some of the obstacles include running up the halfpipe while snow blowers are blowing cold mist in your face, running through a mud pit, climbing over horizontal hanging logs that are 8 feet off the ground, and carrying a log 200 yards.  All in all the obstacles were not hard, but what was hard was running to an obstacle, doing it, and then running to the next one.  We didn't take any breaks and finished the course in 1 hour and 33 minutes.  I think our speed was directly correlated with the 18 Rabbits Haute Diggity Date Bars we all ate before the race.  We called ourselves The Lazy Lizards after a very relaxed bulldog we saw one Saturday morning at the farmers market at the Ferry Building in San Francisco.  This dog way sprawled out in its owners arms with one eye opened and my roommate Kyle said, "That dog sure looks relaxed." and the owner responded, "Yep, he's a real lazy lizard..."  It was that relaxed bull dog that inspired us to go run 7 miles up and down a ski mountain with various obstacles.

Celebrating !

Here at the 18 Rabbits den we are celebrating birthdays with a yummy homemade carrot cake from Heather's kitchen.  The recipe comes from one of her favorite cook books called Baking: From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan which is an awesome book for excellent bake goods.  FYI you can reduce the sugar in the icing, I reduced it by a half a cup but I would say that you could probably reduce it further and it would still be delicious.
