Good Morning at the Marina
This morning I wrangled myself out of bed, fighting the oppressive comfort of the comforter. I pulled on shoes and a sweatshirt, and hopped in my car. I went to La Farine, the best bakery ever, and got the ham and cheese puff pastry. These concoctions are filled with unadulterated delight. I swear, the first time I had one I thought I had died and gone to pastry heaven. I'm not one for sweets (except anything gummy) so the savory pastry is right up my alley.
I brought pastries and coffee back to my lathargic boyfriend, and we got our two Huskies (Jack and Spike) ready to go.
They love to ride in the car, sticking their faces just slightly out the window, sometimes with just their noses resting on the top of the glass of the window, pulling up their top lips, which results in their front teeth being hilariously exposed.
We arrived at the San Leandro Marina just as their dog class was starting.
They had a great class, were (mostly) good, and had a nice cool time on this overcast October day.

Walking my Dogs

I pack my guys in the car, escape from the city, and have an afternoon.
Jack and Spike are my boys...my wonder dogs, with tongues that know how to sneak their way into your ears.
Dogs help make life worth living.
My Moment: Drinking Coffee while Planning my Next Adventure

I love to curl up in a big chair, sipping hot coffee while pouring over travel books, making notes of where I want to go and what I want to see. Simplly....bliss.
On my shelf sits a collection of travel books, some well-used, with pages torn out and notes scrawled in the margins. Others have been poured over, with a look of longing and whimsy. Someday...someday I will make it to...Romania...Buenos Aries...San Juan...Botswana...

Summer Never Ends
I have decided that I will never have "the perfect kitchen" where all the silverware matches and where everything is always clean, without exceptions.
I am the kind of girl who has Halloween pot holders out all yea round, and who regularly uses a bowl that depicts Rudolf the Reindeer to serve salad.
I only have a few rules in the kitchen and they are
1. Always separate the recyclables
2. close the door to the garbage or my dogs will make a mess YOU have a clean up
3. indulge in heirloom tomatoes (a rule my boyfriend ALWAYS breaks)
And
4. use the most colorful dishes often
