A New Direction

As I look back through my blog posts, they clearly lack direction. I originally thought that I would start this blog to talk about victory gardens and going green. My desk job is a far cry from my world saving ambitions, so I thought I would do my best to contribute through a blog. Upon starting my quest I realized that there were hundreds of people doing the same thing but with better execution. I shifted to talk about things that I found interesting, useful, and important, as well as some reviews of local places, and discussion of my travels. Overall I would give my blog the rating of boring. And how could it not be? I sit at a cubicle all day turning in applications for various grants and other awards, and then I go home and turn in my own applications to schools and for financial aid etc.

Upon my review of my blog I decide that it needs a new direction, a theme, something to get excited about. I am not sure yet what that will be but please stay tuned for my next adventure.

A Lovely Long Weekend

Which is the best part of a long weekend? The long weekend or the short work week? I personally think that it is a tie.

This long weekend Boyfriend and I did nothing but enjoy each others company and the beautiful area where we live. We did the regular grocery shopping, cooked, baked, planned our next vacation, took BART downtown, tried on clothes, ate cones of cured meats at the Ferry Building, went (a couple of times) to our favorite coffee shop, started sprouts, and eventually made it over for a loop on Mt. Tamalpias followed by a Puerto Rican meal at Sol Food in San Rafael.

While I suppose that this post has no particular value for others to read, it is fun to share when things are going right.
