Third Time is the Charm, Apparently...W San Francisco

After two failed attempts this year to stay at W Hotels in Minneapolis (see earlier post about Valentine's Day disaster) and NYC (my Spring illness causing us to bail on our 5 day trip to NYC), we finally spent a fun filled 3-days in San Francisco at the W Hotel, which we really loved. The interior decor was much more "eco friendly" and different than other W's I've stayed in, but we loved it just the same. One of our favorites was the little light up Buddah in our room. His message, "the greatest meditation is a mind that lets go," was definitely one that we both needed on our short get away!! If you are ever in San Francisco the Blackberry Lemonade cocktail at XYZ Bar is also not to be missed! Cheers!

Go Spenser!!

We finally made it out to see one of Spenser's football games a couple of weeks ago! He played hard and we sure had fun watching him play and playing with Abbie on the sidelines.

Cupcake Break!!

Given the fact I have been too tired/busy/lazy/overwhelmed the past couple of months to blog about anything and given the fact just this week I (again) renewed my VOW to stop talking about getting healthy and getting in shape and actually DO IT, I find it humorous and, I admit, a bit sick that I am taking a few moments to blog about the heavenly cupcake I stopped to pick up on my way to the airport at the famous Sprinkles of Beverly Hills (Scottsdale, AZ location)! The vanilla with milk chocolate cream cheese frosting was so good I think it was worth a couple steps back on my fitness plan. In my opinion, some of the frou frou cupcake places I've been to just don't live up to the hype, but I was impressed with Sprinkles. For some time now rumor has been that they are coming to Minneapolis and I encourage all friends and family reading this to go to www.sprinkles.com and click on locations to vote for Minneapolis as the next city for a shop to open!!!
