Conservatory of Flowers (Sundays In My City)
Admiring the beauty of San Francisco’s Victorian-era glass greenhouse never gets old. Located in Golden Gate Park, the Conservatory of Flowers opened its doors to the public in 1879, which makes it the oldest public conservatory in the western hemisphere. It is a city, state and national landmark. Can you believe that I’ve lived in […]
The Castro Theatre (Sundays In My City)
In 1922 the now iconic Castro Theatre was built and in 1977 it became registered landmark number 100 of San Francisco, which is great because it is a treasure that should be preserved. The outside of it was designed to resemble a Mexican cathedral while the inside is a fantastic blend of Spanish, Asian and […]
Art My Friends Gave Me (Sundays In My City)
These three pieces of art adorn my home and I adore them. Each one of them was given to me by a different friend and they are priceless as far as I am concerned. Why? Because they were gifts from friends who saw them and just knew that I would love them. They make me […]

San Francisco’s Hometown Creamery (Sundays In My City)
A couple of weeks ago, the family and I were walking around the Inner Sunset after visiting the San Francisco Botanical Garden when we came across San Francisco’s Hometown Creamery. We weren’t even a little bit hungry because we’d just had some not so great Indian food (wah-wah), but we stepped inside of this new-to-us […]
Urban Putt (Sundays In My City)
We woke up one Sunday and Unknown Papi told us we were going somewhere and needed to be there at 11 a.m., but he wouldn’t tell us where we were going. We may have nagged him endlessly to spill the frijoles to no avail. He ended up taking us to Urban Putt an indoor miniature […]
