Morning, surfers! JP finally got his own board, and she’s a beaut. 8’6″ of precision-shaped foam core, wrapped in layers of fiberglass, cloth and epoxy resin. And she’s already making friends on the roof of JP’s car with my board. Ahh, so sweet. So, naturally, we had to break her in in […]
Friday Night Done Right
Before you do anything else, play the video above, and then start reading. Now, what’s tonight’s post about? Dinner. Surprise! Specifically, Baked Chilean Sea Bass served over a bed of Tortellini and topped with Roasted Golden Cherry Tomatoes. Next question – where did we find this recipe? Keep reading to find out. […]
Tomato Time!
Dahlia from JP’s Backyard Ahhhh…ok. Thursday – almost Friday, which is almost the weekend. It’s about this time that I need a little weekend love. If you’re feeling it, here it is! Last Sunday. Nothing out of the uzsh, but a good day none-the-less. Late that afternoon, JP picked me up and we […]
Jerry & Terry join the CIA
All right! I can’t take the pressure from my little brother any longer! Let’s put our wine glass down, push our plates back—it’s time to blog… For the past two weeks, I’ve attended UC Davis’ short course for wine marketing. Besides trying to appear as young college students, our focus was on the economics […]
California Academy of Sciences (and Dinner, of course)
It’s Friday! OK, this is probably posting on Monday, but remember how fun Friday was?! I do. Our team at work went for an Off-site to the California Academy of Sciences (http://www.calacademy.org/). I’ve been wanting to check this place out for more than a year since they reopened after ~10 years and $500 million of […]
Bikin’ and Tubbin’
Tonight we took the night off from any and all chores and went for a leisurely bike ride down Sawyer Camp Trail. We’ve been busy running around so much the past few weeks that my bike seat actually felt a little foreign. But not in a good way. 🙂 It’s 13 miles R/T end-to-end, but […]
A Tale of Love and Tragedy
OK, bad news first. I lost my camera this weekend (that’s the tragedy in this tale). If anyone has any information that leads to the recovery of said camera, there is a reward. But it’s a surprise, so you’ll just have to trust me. If you found a camera and you’re not sure if it’s […]
Go Jerry. It’s Your Birthday!
Starbucks never spells “Jared” right Yesterday was JP’s birthday! He’s enrolled in a two week wine business course at UC Davis, so we met halfway in Pleasant Hill for dinner at a place called Nibblers Eatery & Wine Bar (www.nibblerseatery.com). I love these kinds of places. Tucked away in a residential strip mall, serving little-known […]
Sunburned. But Satisfied.
Sunday was a Fun day! We spent most of Saturday packing our lives into boxes, so Sunday was reserved for anything but that. JP and I went surfing while Lea stayed home and sewed. To each his/her own… We started at the jetty in Halfmoon Bay. Waves were gradual and easy riders. Better than […]
Surf, Salad, Sticky Figgies
Today was SPECIAL. Don’t ask me why, but at the last minute, the head of my division said we could boogie at 2PM today because we’ve been working hard. Thanks, boss lady! (They’re all ladies). So, not to let a gift like this go to waste, I went surfing! Amazing way to spend a Friday […]
