My last day in San Francisco is bittersweet. I love this city (and, of course, wine country), but I really miss my husband and my pug (who now has a doggie ear infection ). I’m not one to get homesick, but, for some reason, I’m seriously missing home this time. My flight back to Beantown [...]

I joked that yesterday was the third best day of my life, behind my wedding day and last year’s adventures to wine country. Ok, the day that Mal and I closed on our new house was pretty epic too, so maybe yesterday was the forth best day of my life! When Jenna, Anne, and I arrived in [...]

Wow, what a meal. It was legen- (wait for it) dary. Last night, the Foodbuzz Gala Dinner was held at the Grand Hall in the Ferry Building. It was a beautiful location for a fancy, celebratory dinner. I kept picturing how perfect it would be for a wedding reception. Before dinner, we enjoyed a cocktail [...]

Good news: I faced my fear of public speaking and survived the food blogging panel!! Bonus: I didn’t pass-out and I only said a few weird things! Really, it wasn’t that bad. I was nervous the whole time, but I managed to form complete sentences and, hopefully, people took something useful away from it. The other [...]

Wahoo! The Foodbuzz Festival is off to a great start! Around 6:00 PM last night, I hopped on a bus with a bunch of other food bloggers to the Welcome Reception & Street Food Fare at the Fort Mason Center’s Herbst Pavillion. We arrive right when the sun was setting over the bay. So pretty! [...]

I made it! I’m here in San Francisco! Say hello to my roommates for the weekend: Jenna & Anne P! We’re going to tear it up in San Francisco! We’re sharing a room at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel. Lunch On the flight to San Francisco, I ordered the “Go Picnic” meal, which included lemon [...]

When Mal and I finally arrived in San Francisco via 6-hour bus ride, we had a strong urge to drink a beer. Luckily, our friend, Beth T, offered to pick us up from the airport and save us from our misery entertain us until our late-night flight back to Boston. Within minutes of meeting Beth [...]

After spending all afternoon tasting wines, it was time for dinner. I think we were all ready to eat! We drove into Sonoma and had an early dinner at the girl & the fig. It was an adorable restaurant! Inside: We dined outside on the patio, which was beautiful– and sort of romantic! Our meal [...]

Yesterday was quite a special day! After brunch, Jenna, Kath, Meghann, Beth, and I drove up to Sonoma County for a day filled with wine, food, and photography! Our first stop was Matanzas Creek Winery. The views were breathtaking! Jenna’s friend, Adam, was our tour guide and photographer for the day. He’s also the Director [...]
