Jelly recently celebrated his 9th birthday.
This past year was full of grand accomplishments. Some of his most notable ones…
He’s been a busy feline.
I had a hard baking act to follow after last year’s Birthday Cake For Cats post. It is actually the #1 [...]
It was first or second grade when I first learned the words to “This Land is Your Land.” I wondered if I would ever go to New York or California. The “golf stream” waters and redwood forests seemed so far away.
I know I made six-year-old-me really proud when I got [...]
In the end of January, I went to a food swap with the SF Swappers group.
I was excited to try delicious new foods and meet some San Francisco foodies. This was my first time meeting with this group, and my first official “food” swap (I’ve swapped dozens of cookies though, [...]
This is what it looks like when everyone in a room is standing around eating ice cream and hot sauce.
The Heaven and Hell Takedown occurred back in August, but five months later seems like a good time to talk about it, right?
We competed in the hot sauce [...]

Sister Wives is currently airing their 5th season. I don’t know how I got hooked in the first place, but I purchased Seasons 1-4 on iTunes and watched them back-to-back as quickly as I could.
My favorite sister wife was Meri [...]
This was my first SF foodie event!
A holiday cookie swap at 18 Reasons in the Mission. After last year’s successful swap in Boston, I was excited to find another one to participate in this year. All I had to do was bring 3 dozen cookies for sampling and swapping. [...]
Here is a blog post that’s been on my draft list for 5 months. I feel remorseful that I didn’t hit publish when I originally wrote the post, but better late than never. I feel like I can’t really start blogging about San Francisco food while I still have Boston food posts in the queue. [...]
A weird thing about Bay Area apartments is that most of the windows don’t have screens. Our landlord explained that they don’t need insect screens here because there are no bugs to keep out.
When we were staying with my sister in the East Bay, we had to close the windows once it got dark [...]
We’ve been in California for almost a month. I figured now is as good a time as any to share pictures from the move.
Here are some of the last photos taken in our Boston apartment, shot at approximately 3 A.M. the night before we flew out.
Jelly was helpful as ever.
