The very chair I am now sitting in to compose this post . . .(it's the most comfy seat in the house and I'm not just saying that because it is littered with roses) (but that helps). I haven't been sitting in it much lately--in fact, some days I barely turn on my computer at all. Summer vacation is winding down to a close and I have been milking every second of it. For instance, the other day we went to visit, for the very first time, a lovely little town called Benicia here in the San Francisco East Bay Area.
Best view . . .
Best eatery . . . Captain Blythers on First Street with a view of the water . . . it has won many awards. I had a burger with fries and no dessert. What was I thinking?
Favorite Guy (he's there on the bench somewhere . . .)
Best Boy (I can say that since he was the only boy with us at the time . . .)(and he posed for this photo, even begged that I take one of him doing whatever it is he's doing. I'm thinking I should be alarmed at his vanity but instead I can't help being tickled at his great eye for a fun photo).
Best. Moment. Ever. You know, the one when the sugar and chocolate are singing in your system while your brain tries to register the fact that you just ate a piece of chocolate cake that might, JUST MIGHT, be better than Costco's . . . (sigh . . .thank goodness Benicia is only 30 minutes away . . .)
Favorite Find. I found yards and yards of this scrumptious fabric for a STEAL in an antique store. Such happy colors! I have been busy making curtains and pillows out of it (which necessitated the purchase of a (toy) sewing machine . . . I will be offering the left-overs next week on eBay next week!)
