What To Write?

I feel like I need more content on my site. Maybe more photos or maybe more writing. I don't know. I don't like logging into a computer and writing. I went to New York recently and took all kinds of photos but haven't posted any here. I guess I'm just being lazy! Ciao, CoCo.

Pi Pizzeria

I'll never forget the night in 2007 when I met the Chris Summers the soon to be owner of Pi Pizzeria while I was interning at ALIVE Magazine as a photographer. He was chatting with me about his vision for the pizzeria and how he was going to open it up in the Loop. I smiled in awe of his vision as I am a very avid fan of pizza. He wanted something more health-conscious and vegan friendly. Pi Pizzeria opened and was an immediate hit! It now has multiple locations across the St. Louis area and even our president loved it! Recently I had the opportunity to dine there with my best friend who has never been to Pi and she loved it. In fact, she was full on the first slice. I must admit pizza is very filling! It feels so great to meet great people in St. Louis with visions made into a reality for our city. Kudos to Chris and his chain of wonderful restaurants!

Japanese Festival 2012

I was a bit weary when I woke up this morning and saw that it was still cloudy out with a chance for thunderstorms which would gravely interfere with my first-time experience in St. Louis' Japanese Festival at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. Well it's been five long years since I've been to the gardens and I was long overdue. Despite the overcast, light drizzle, humidity and heat, the festival stood it's ground. I had a wonderful time and took pics with my phone and with my point and shoot. You can find some of my captures on my Twitter page @cocothephotog. If you had a chance to go, I hope you enjoyed yourself as much as I did! Ciao, CoCo.
