SF Vintners Market



 









A tad bit belated post, but I went to the SF Vintners Market a few weekends back and had a blast! We started out with brunch at a friends (mimosas included) and then we walked down to the market that was held at Fort Mason. There were a ton of wonderful wineries there and for $35 bucks we got to go around and taste them all! Im pretty sure I tasted some great wines...I just wish I could tell the difference :) I'm getting there though! I went to Calistoga this weekend so I'll post about that experience soon!

Also, I am in the process of finding an apartment in the city and just might have found the one! The only downside is that its a room share with one other girl--but im so used to living with a ton of people that it seems super fun! I'll keep you posted on that though!

In the meantime, here are some pictures of the Vintners Market. Right outside of the market was the food truck event called "Off the Grid." They station there and provide amazing different cuisine options. I tried the 'Grilled Cheese' truck and had the most incredible grilled cheese sandwich everrrrrrr!

weddings + tailgating=love

I had such an AMAZING time going back home to my college town in Idaho. I got to go out with all my bff's, go tailgating for the homecoming game, see my sister, and go to my friend's wedding. 
It was an incredible weekend and so weird to come back to Cali! It was my first time actually going home for a vacation and that will take some getting used to! 

Here are some picks from the trip home...







Also, I wanted say that I have finished my picture a day for a year! I can't believe I have actually completed it..but I do have some cool pictures that document the last year of my life...now I need to figure out what to do with all my pictures!

So if you have a cute idea for what to do with my pics please let me know!! :)

Working hard-or hardly workin'


I have to say I have had a wonderful time working for Skyy Spirits--what a fun way to get introduced to the glamorous side of the corporate world. I mean, a cocktail bar in the entrance? Not too shabby.
However, because of my crazy persistance with finding a job in Marketing, working as a Human Resources Assistant just isn't going to cut it. 
Even if it is with a snazzy company.

So, I am happy to report that I am now a Marketing Coordinator for a company in Sausalito and am starting really soon!


I'm so excited for all the projects and the work I get to do. (did I just say 'get to do?') Wow, I must be really excited :)

But, I am...and this brings me one step closer to moving to the city....and I really cannot wait for that day to come!

weekend in Idaho & Washington




The rain just keeps pouring here in SF and the news showed a chance of snow. Wowza! Thought I escaped all that from Idaho, but I guess not! I still don't mind the rain though--it makes the air fresh and reminds me of fall.  But, good thing I am escaping this weekend from the snow to go to Moscow-ID. Only one of my favorite places on earth.

I am packing as much fun as I possibly can into a short little weekend but it is totally going to be worth it. First stop Moscow, ID for Homecoming, seeing my friends/sister, & some Corner Club action of course! I cannot wait!
Then after tailgating for the game its time to head over to Spokane for my friends wedding! I'm excited to witness yet another EX/DG wedding (there have been quite a few!) and I can't wait to see everyone.

I am sad that I am missing fleetweek here in SF though! I got to witness some cool Blue Angel action from the windows at work yesterday...hopefully again today as they are practicing for the show tomorrow.
I've heard the roof parties are sooo much fun too!
