A Sober Girls Guide to Wine Country

Jed did it again. Made my day. We went on a little outing to Napa Valley this weekend. A quick hour drive from our place in SF. So, what do two people who don't drink do in wine country?

1. Start the weekend off right at Zushi Puzzle.
2. Watch the Olympics Opening Ceremonies in the comfort of Marriotts bed
3. Breakfast at THE BEST diner we've been to yet. And, if any of you have followed this blog, we eat a lot. Corned beef hash NOT from the can, sweet cream pancakes, fresh squeezed oj. Yum!
4. Drive around to see the barren grape vines, but because one of us has an amazing eye, still capture some awesome photos
5. Tour the adorable town
6. Shop at J.Crew outlet. We never leave this place without finding a few deals
7. Make great memories with my favorite person



Did you do something lovely this weekend with someone you love?

I can see clearly now the rain is gone!

It's been a few long WET weeks of rain in San Francisco! The clouds parted and it was TIME that we finally leave our four walls and explore a little of our still NEW town!

We live about 2 miles from this place. It's a nice little walk from our house, so we ventured out. We were not the only ones with this idea. The park was filled with dogs, walkers, runners, joggers, bikers, explorers, wino's (I think there was a wine festival) and we LOVED seeing so many people out and about. Seeing people active (especially me) always warms my heart.

We walked to the pier and saw fishermen, seagulls, and boats GALORE! It was the first time since being in San Fran that I started to feel like this was something I could get used to. Now we need to find a friend with a boat. Anyone? If not, I will just have to stare at this picture and wait.


Jed has been begging for sushi for the last few weeks. We asked around and were told about Zushi Puzzle. It has HANDS DOWN, the worst website I have ever seen, but the best sushi I have ever tasted! We love finding little hidden gems, and this was a big one. Two thumbs way up.

It was nice to be out with my husb, nice to be out in the sun, nice to be in our city. It's happening people, we are starting to like this place.
