One of our regular weekend activities is to get in the car and drive somewhere, nowhere in particular, but somewhere. This weekend I requested that we leave San Francisco and go somewhere sunnier. We ended up in San Anselmo – a little over 30 minutes away from San Francisco – and came across Robson-Harrington Park. […]

Fangirling at #WeAllGrow Summit 2019
I spent Wednesday through Sunday of last week at #WeAllGrow Summit 2019 in Long Beach, California and it was GLORIOUS. So glorious that I completely forgot to post last week’s Sundays In My City post. Oh well, I’m back this week to show you how I was fangirling while at #WeAllGrow. First, let me explain […]
48 Reasons I’m Glad to Be 48 Years Old
My birthday is on Monday. I will be 48 years old. My family is spending the weekend celebrating me and I am not at all shy about being the center of attention. Aging gets a bad rap. For me getting older has been incredibly liberating. I have so many things to be grateful for and […]
Kids Climbing the Walls
I’m a total homebody and could happily hang out at home all weekend, but I have a husband and kids that start climbing the walls if they don’t get out. So, we go out. But then when we’re out, we walk by a wall at the Serramonte Shopping Center that looks climbable and my husband […]
Adding Outlines With Photoshop Elements 2019
Earlier this year, I received a complimentary copy of Photoshop Elements 2019 as well as a gift card to buy supplies to make and print greeting cards (I was NOT paid for this post). At the time, I didn’t really use it very much because it was acting all glitchy with my Apple computers. This […]
I’m an SFMOMA Member
This weekend we headed to downtown San Francisco. Our intention was to go MOAD (Museum of the African Diaspora), but they were closed on account of they were putting in a new installation. DOH! SFMOMA to the rescue! Well, we weren’t about to go home without getting our art fix, so we walked over to […]
Our Take on ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ the Musical
My children and I were invited to press night of the musical production of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” at the Golden Gate Theatre in San Francisco and I could not say yes to the invite fast enough. The book “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” by Roald Dahl holds a special place in my heart. […]
Girls’ Night In
My girls asked for a slumber party night in with me and of course I obliged. We had dessert, got into our jammies, jumped into bed and binged on junk TV. How lucky am I? I don’t take these moments for granted. I know they won’t last forever. I mean, I would be perfectly happy […]
Dutch Windmill and Tulip Garden
The western edge of Golden Gate Park is home to two windmills. The southernmost windmill is know as Murphy Windmill and the one pictured above is called Dutch Windmill and is surrounded by the Queen Wilhelmina Tulip Garden. It’s spring and the tulips were in bloom when my daughters and I went for a visit […]
Lead With Love
View this post on Instagram This year I am doing a combination word of the year/resolution. My word is “love” and it might seem like a loosey-goosey feel-good word to choose that doesn’t really have a specific direction, but it’s actually broad, all-encompassing and specific. It ties into my resolution because the idea is that […]
