This Thanksgiving weekend certainly did a lot to get us…
Urban girl almanac: Windy city
What a week! It seems like this summer is already flying by. Now if the wind would just stop, the weather outside would be ideal. Here are some of the things I learned this week:
- Shoe Wiz in the San Francisco Shopping Center does a great job but they are a little expensive.
- The Body Shop is the place to buy a sleep mask.
- Silver bunny spoons and embroidered blankets make nice baby gifts.
- At the Post Office, express mail is faster and more expensive than priority mail. So confusing!
- The Crane’s stationary sale is an excellent way to stock up.
- If you overdo the hip stretches in yoga class…you’ll be sore for days.
- When it is windy, a headband is a saving grace.
- If you run ahead, you can catch a 22 bus that passed 14th street again two stops down on the corner of Hermann and Fillmore.
- Don’t turn down an invite to a business cocktail party. You may meet some nice people and get to see some lovely courtyards.
- For a delightful summer dessert buy angel food cake and strawberries at Safeway.
- Pencil skirt, pumps, light sweater and headband is a winning ensemble.
- Japantown is awesome.
- Two cups of strong coffee in the morning may leaving you feeling slightly unhinged the rest of the day.
- A good defensive position in kickball is standing with your arms above your head and your feet wide apart…according to me.
I think Rob and I are going to the movies tonight and kayaking in Sausalito tomorrow if the weather is nice. Should be a very relaxing weekend for us. I hope you have fun plans too!
