Stern Grove... it's becoming a tradition!



Last year we all went to Stern Grove when the SF Symphony was playing there, and this year it happened to be SF Opera day. We love Stern Grove!

Just like the real thing!


Thanks to an awesome recipe given to us by Almea, Dave was able to recreate New Mexico style "christmas" enchiladas! For those of you who think christmas is only something done in the winter time with a big tree, presents, and santa claus... think again. Christmas in New Mexico also means one enchilada with red sauce and one with green sauce. Yummmmmmmers!

Day #1 in Vancouver

We arrived in Vancouver today and discovered that our little B&B in the West End called "The Barclay House" was even cuter than we were expecting! After settling in we explored the city and then realized that we had to find dinner... it was after 9pm and still light outside!

thank Vinny for this one =^..^=



want more?

Since I am an Ambassador...

I wanted to tell all of my blog readers about this yummy new product out there. The company is called Attune and they make yogurt granola bars and chocolate bars. I LOVE the mint chocolate bars the best. Usually, healthy chocolate tastes nasty, but this stuff tastes like real chocolate. If someone didn't tell you, you would never think it was good for you. Visit their website to read more about all of the benefits of these yummy little treats.

Anyone lose an 8 foot tall Lego man?


Well, if you did, he's washed ashore in the Netherlands.

When Stuart gets to go out on the porch he tests my nerves by jumping up onto the railing. It's very exciting out there you know.
