I’ve just been back from San Francisco a day, but as I could just as easily make this a list of things I love about San Francisco I’ll at least put at:
:: 1 – The fact that SF has a ‘Twin Peaks’ much like one of my favourite TV series, but in this case it’s two hills atop which you can see a spectacular view of the city.
:: 2 – My new earrings made by fearfulpenguin which are rainbow coloured and lovely.
:: 3 – Pinot noir, and my newly found love of seafood – I used to be a bit scared of eating it but now I’ll try almost anything (bar raw oysters).
::4 – Being inspired by a fabulous halter-neck dress in Haight/Ashbury to organise that fabric shopping trip downtown at long last.
:: 5 – Having two new novels to read (thanks Kirsty!) including ‘The Welsh Girl’ which I’ve almost finished.
:: 6 – Pink tulips on Valentine’s day, and a mystery card from someone else. Though I suspect I know who it is…
:: 7 – Good lemon curd and good hot chocolate.
:: 8 – The view from ‘Top of the Mark’ – awe-inspiring and served up with a mojito martini and piano music. Tres posh!
:: 9 – Roadtrips in general. A reminder I need to learn to drive.
:: 10 – The sudden determination to make pea soup when I don’t even like peas.

Ooh, what do you think of The Welsh Girl? I quite liked it, but I did think that it was fairly ordinary.

a) Glad you liked the earrings! Have you seen the new ones I’ve done recently? :)
b) What was the halterneck dress like? I just bought a pattern for some dresses, some of which can be halterneck, I’m so excited about it!
c) Ooooh, pink tulips! So pretty! And a secret admirer too, you’re a lucky girl! :)
