when i grow up

Since reading this month's Bon Apétit magazine

article about food carts, I have become semi

obsessed with them. Of course, the magazine article

was all about street carts in Portland.. another reason why

Portland is totally amazing.

See the online article/slideshow here.

Is staring at a photo of food for long periods

of time as good as eating it?

After doing some internet food photo gawking,

I have come to find that there is actually a

blog that lists and rates all of the Portland food carts.

OF COURSE there is. Portland is the coolest.

junior ambassadors must be quite the place, as it was featured

in Bon Apétit and on the home page of the foodcartsportland page.

Although, it is an 'ice cream cart' who makes bacon

ice cream. And, its orange.

This one's for you Joce!

The swamp shack.. home of southern fried food.

jambalaya!!

my personal fave(at least in pictures) = the spud locker

melted cheese and bacon? heaven.

I'm guessing that there is a strong correlation

between any food this cool appearing in orange county

and me opening up my own food shack.

Let's put this one at number three on my

potential near future calling list behind killer

apparel and art co op shop owner and crafty workshop

studio owner. I'm hungry.
