Last weekend, I got to go to my first baseball game. We had tickets to the Giants’ game on Saturday evening. While I’ve never been much of a sports fan, it was fun watching and experiencing a baseball game live.

Happy Friday!
My younger cousin is visiting us this week so we’ve been taking her out to see the sights. Unfortunately, on the day we went to Pier 39, there was heavy rain. I have never seen the Fisherman’s Wharf area so empty. But it gave us a chance to take photos that we probably wouldn’t be able to take otherwise.
How pretty is this carousel reflected in the rain?

It doesn’t get more fall in the city than visiting a pumpkin patch. Last weekend, a few of us decided to go to a local pumpkin patch with my friend’s one year old daughter. I wasn’t really there to shop for pumpkins, but it was fun to browse anyways. This particular pumpkin patch had a petting zoo, hamster balls, and a mini train to take kids around the pumpkin patch.

It’s not often that I have time to wander around Golden Gate Park in the early mornings. But when I get the chance, I love to see the morning light filtering through the trees. It gives this little spot an ethereal feel.

I honestly think I can have bowl foods all day everyday and I wouldn’t get tired of it. Maybe it’s because the ingredients can be customized to your taste. So many ways to mix it up.

If you ever get up early enough to see the sun rise over San Francisco on a clear day, the colors are just gorgeous. I took this photo in the middle of the street on an early Saturday morning. I kind of love that the streets are pretty empty since not many people are up and about yet. It’s the side of SF that you don’t really get to see during the day.

I found the cutest display of dumplings on the top floor of the Westfield Shopping Centre. I think they look more like puffs of clouds. Lol.

Earlier this week, I met up with my friend Emily, from Emily’s Daily, for some much needed brunch time. Both of us have been so busy with work that we haven’t had time for anything else. So we took a couple hours off to catch up.
We decided to eat at a newish brunch place called Raw Sugar Factory because they had green tea french toast on the menu. We’re both obsessed with matcha green tea. And oh my gosh, their drink menu! Guava mimosa, lychee mimosa, lychee iced tea, just to name a few. And that giant hash brown! So crispy, just the way I like it.

We finally got our Christmas tree this weekend! I’m so excited. Our tree is up and decorated even though the star is more than a little lopsided. Now, we can start placing gifts under our tree!
Christmas trees are actually a recent thing for our family. Growing up, we never had a Christmas tree since money was tight. It wasn’t until I got my first paycheck as a dental hygienist that we started buying a Christmas tree. And we absolutely love getting fresh ones from the Christmas tree lot. It’s so much fun walking through the rows and rows of trees to find the perfect one. Plus, my sisters and I love that our living room smells like Christmas. Maybe one day we’ll go to a Christmas tree farm and chop our own. Do you have a tree at home?
In the mean time, we have to talk about this cranberry simple syrup.
