Most days at work are incredibly busy, but this week has been especially full of things to do. In order to be properly fueled for the day I have been turning to eggs for breakfast, complete with chicken sausage. This meal kept me full all morning, which was great because I was running around …

To the Top
I have said it a million times, but there is something magical about the Bay Area. Yesterday it was a perfect day for a hike. Yes, it is November when most of the country starts to experience frost, snow flurries and winter coats. Well here it was cool but no down jacket required. With blue …
I found my new calling
I am going to make jewelry! Well, not for a living but after last night's beading session with a very talented jewelry maker I might be creating more art pieces than I ever thought. The evening started with a good glass of wine and some winter veggie soup - so good! Then it was time …
Every Monday should end with Sushi
Monday's are always full of plenty of emails, work and wishing it was not Monday. So what better way to get through a Monday but thinking about sushi for dinner all day. That is what I did yesterday... When the clock struck 5:30 I was out the door and on my way to Japanese heaven. …

Check Up
As new kitty parents we did the responsible thing yesterday and got her a full check up. She was not super fond of leaving her new home, but she did great at the vet and everyone loved her! She is a healthy kitty with a bit of a tire around her middle that we need …
Taking the Plunge
We all do it... Stray from the comfort of the known, the well-liked, the satisfying and try something new... a new restaurant that is. Last night we braved crossing the threshold of a new local eatery and were sorely disappointed. We took some friends and were lured by the promise of yummy mexican, space to …
