What a weekend! San Francisco loves exercising and eating and when the weather is warm…we tend to do even more of both. I think I have about 70 miles on bike and 15 on foot logged for the weekend. On Friday night, Rob and I geared up to meet friends at Bike Party. We rode…

I’m officially obsessed! I made these three last night and have been distributing to nearly everyone I have contact with. Have a great 4th of July weekend!

I’ve now got the hang of making these classic bracelets from embroidery floss. Rob’s wearing the first one – in brown and blue – and Margaret has the second – in pink and orange. The HonestlyWTF instructions are easy to follow, once you get started. Having the thread taped down firmly on a board is…

…and I don’t even particularly like collard greens! So, back from the farm and with a couple pounds of super leafy collard greens. Margaret and I found a recipe for collard green pesto on Tuesday night. The whole thing made even more “organic” by my inability to find the food processor. We chopped the pesto…

Hooray for Alemany Farm! This four acre organic farm is tucked away in San Francisco by the 280 freeway in Bernal Heights and run entirely by volunteers.

To start, Friday night ping pong and bean tacos with Margaret: We watched Justin Biber: Never Say Never – and I have to say, I really enjoyed it! Kid has talent. Saturday morning, Rob left early to volunteer with the bike coalition. I…

This is happening. Thanks to Hey, Stop It and HonestlyWTF I’m going to make my first ever friendship bracelets this weekend. Want one? It doesn’t hurt at all that I already have the nailpolish, round gold buttons and oxford shirt pictured in this photo for inspiration.

What a week! We’ve been out and about almost every night this week for lovely dinners. On Monday, we biked across town in the warm weather and had dinner at The Tipsy Pig. Wednesday night, dinner at Anchor and Hope (the calamari is so good!) and a Kooks show at Slims. And Thursday night, over…

For our latest beach house, let’s head to the lakefront instead of the beach! This little red cottage is in Lake Tahoe. Details, clockwise, from the photo: Cabin – A little old fashioned cabin for rent right on the west shore of Lake Tahoe. Blanket – A Pendleton classic inspired by Native American design, rugged…
