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 …

Tut Tut it Looks Like Rain
In the words of the wise Winnie the Pooh, yes, here in Northern Cali the rain is coming. The rest of the week is projected to be cloaked in winter rain storms and there is nothing better than snuggling up and watching tv and movies when this happens. However, most of us have to head …
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 …

Tea Leaf Salad
Yesterday was a special day, complete with a surprise delivery of beautiful flowers. And a celebratory dinner at a restaurant I have been meaning to try for a very long time. The meal was delicious but the best part was the Tea Leaf Salad. They mix together all of the ingredients, lentils, peanuts, sesame seeds, …
First of the Season
It happened! It rained yesterday afternoon! It might be foggy and cool here in the bay area but rain is rare and only falls with the coming of winter. This means the summer is over, boots will reappear in my wardrobe and the holidays are a comin'. Time is on the move and I …
Fit for Queens
That's right. We were queens for the day! I took my mom out to tea yesterday and it was the best meal I've had in ages. First of course there was some tea: And then came the tea sandwiches: It was a delicious meal and certainly an entertaining one too. I suggest everyone head to …
