My brother is the head chef at this place (V. Picasso, in downtown Urbana). They opened tonight, but I got to go to a sneak preview last night. I am hella proud!
I wish more of these turned out (or that I made more attempts and that those would have turned out), but mood lighting is tough to conquer.
This is my new kitteh. Is name of Matokie:
What the hell kind of name is Matokie?
- Matokie Slaughter (banjo player, known for the song “Hop Big Eyed Rabbit”, which may explain the kitteh’s obsession with Paulette!)
- Matoaka (real name of Pochontas; means “playful little brat”)

Hella cropped, because I didn’t have the (malfunctioning) 70–300 on me.
