Tumbleweed & Dandelion - Abbot Kinney

Going to school in Marina Del Rey is wonderfully convenient, as Santa Monica is just a 15 minute drive up Lincoln Boulevard.

This lovely little shop called Tumbleweed and Dandelion is located on Abbot Kinney in Santa Monica.   Filled with home decor that combines the aesthetic of a French cottage and beach house, it is truly a spot for  a woman's whimsical soul to obtain inspiration.  The store is a home converted to a store, and I may or may not have asked to move in.  I was not allowed.

Pescadero and Half Moon Bay Getaway (California)

Finally got my September Vogue! We found a lovely antique shop in Pescadero and loved walking around downtown Half Moon Bay where we found this mural.

Cocola - Redwood City

Cappuccino, Tomato Soup, Breast of Chicken Salad.

Lake Tahoe

I love this place.

Cocola Bakery - Redwood City

Cocola is one of my favorite local bakeries.  Their cappuccinos are done right (rich, smooth, foamy) and the large vanilla macaroons add a lovely addition to the experience.

Pamplemousse - Redwood City

There is nothing I love more than coffee and conversation.

My soul finds rest in God alone...
