Adventures in San Francisco with Mama Janet

Sunday we had a wonderful day. I am glad that during the weekend the weather was beautiful. Sunny, breeze, and warm. Really what more could you ask for.

In the morning Mama Janet made us a breakfast of champions! I really am going to miss having her as my personal home chef. This is true.I really didn't know how many arguments she spared me and Ben before we moved up here to California and moi had to do most of the cooking. I had it made back in Tucson going over to Ben's house al the time, dinner ready! But I guess I had to grow up at some point.

Anyways, Sunday we went up to Mill Valley to explore Muir Woods. It was awesome because it happened to be free parking and fee free day! Then after that we went to a Puerto Rican restaurant called Sol Food. Me and Ben love it there. The atmosphere, the food, and the drinks! We crossed on the Golden Gate bridge and Janet loved it.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday weren't too eventful for Janet. Unfortunately me and Ben had to go to work and school so she was on house arrest. But tuesday I took her thrifting!


Here are some pics of the trip : )

Mama's Here

Today Benny's Mama arrived! We are so excited. Benny was especially happy because she hasn't been up here since she helped us move here. Today we went to Chinatown and we were there for probably about 5 hours. Its really hard to feel like you've seen everything at Chinatown because there are so many shops and knick knacks but we got a lot of cute stuff. I got some lovely feather headbands I am in loooove with. We walked until out feeties hurt. We also found a very yummy Chinese restaurant too and the food was deeeelicious! I really enjoyed our day in San Fran and the weather was beautiful. Now Benny's mom is sound asleep.

Finally a Sunny Day

Lately the weather has been so depressing. The sun hasn't come out to say hello for very long. Finally today, the sun came out and shined all day. I finally got a worthy dose of vitamin D hee hee.

Today wasn't very eventful I just went to school then went to walk around Lake Elizabeth with Crystal then I went back to school.

But I was happy to see that despite a raccoon dumping my flower pot upside down the seeds are starting to sprout! Maybe I do have a chance at not being labeled a plant killer for the rest of my life? Hmm??? We'll see.


I even tended to this little basil pre-seeded and potted plant but four hours later a big ass turkey came and knocked it down. That basil just wasn't meant to live.
Speaking of turkey's they were out in full swing today. Its mating season. Which means we've been hearing some loud gobble-gobbles. (Pow-chika-wow-wow)




Time is going by so fast. We have less than a year left to live here and I can't help but prematurely start to miss things. But at the same time I am excited for what the future has in store.
