Spent a wonderful weekend in San Francisco catching up with good friends and family. We stayed at the Fairmont and this was our view of the city. Always love coming back to the City by the Bay.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Made a peanut butter chocolate pie for D for valentine's day. It was mighty tasty if I do say so myself. Spent the evening at home with a lovely dinner that D made and watched "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World," one of our favorite movies. Fun relaxing night!

Baby Shower - Seattle
Some friends from college offered to throw me a baby shower in Seattle and I was super stoked to meet up with ole' College buddies and also with some of my NW family. However, the original day of the shower was on the "Snowmaggedon" weekend in Seattle, where several people lost power and/or were snowed in for up to a week. We decided to reschedule it for two weeks later and I'm glad we did. It was a gorgeous sunny weekend in Seattle and I'm so glad that we didn't have to deal with the stress of snow on top of traveling.
The shower was on Saturday afternoon and my lovely friend A threw a shower that had a blue and green theme, with a sprinkling of mustaches and neck ties. We had a little snack buffet with different cheese and crackers, vegetables, fruit, chips and dip, and meatballs. Meatballs is the one thing that I have consistently been craving and so we thought it would fun to have them at the shower too. We also had a dessert table with confetti cupcakes, neck tie sugar cookies, and chocolate mustache lollipops. Yum! Had so much fun hanging out with everyone and felt honored to have such great family and friends. By the end of the day I was exhausted and crashed on the couch about 8:30 pm that night. Get ready for a bunch of pictures, hope you enjoy!

Homemade Nutella?!?!
I saw this recipe and literally had to stop myself from drooling on the keyboard. Who knew that such a wonderfully amazing concoction could be made at home?! I've put this on my immediate to-do list . . . well, my immediate to-do list for when I have free time. The free time is the hard part. I keep thinking "Oh next week, I will have more time," and this has to yet to happen. How the heck are D and I going to manage throwing a little babe in the mix?! Hmmmm. Good news though! We had a doc appointment and looks like things are still A-ok and we only have 9 more weeks to go. Fingers crossed that I can squeeze this recipe sometime in the window . . . now, where the heck do go to find Hazelnut oil?
