Living in the Bay Area is something special. I have said it a lot: Here and Here and Here. But where can you enjoy the whirring liveliness of the city and then drive less than an hour and be surrounded by the serene beauty of nature. With some out-of-towners in toe, we spent the day …

Compliments can go a long way
When I used to run with the San Francisco Road Runners I was complimented by a fellow runner on my running form. Following his flattering observation I ran with more confidence and pride. I even ran a little faster with an extra hop in my step. It felt great to be recognized for something I …

A Feast From Morning Till Night
Do you see this pile of bacon!? Yesterday morning some friends and I had front row seats to this mound of meat while enjoying a delicious brunch at Plow. I had an incredible plate of eggs. But if you are heading here any time soon the lemon ricotta pancakes are where it's at! Yes I stole …
