Photographic proof my mom still loves me!

Mom dropped in to visit W and I to make sure I was still living. (if you'd been waiting for a blog post, you might have begun to wonder) We worked the bay area over pretty good. On thursday we took her on her first visit to our home away from home, Ikea. She was like a kid in a candy store, exactly what you might expect. We dropped by to see aunt peggy after that, and then had another fabulous meal at sushi avenue. (They're hiring, and that seems like a lot more fun than working at the BRO part time) Friday We took BART into the city and then rode the MUNI up to the wharf area. We strolled throuh pier 39 walked along Until we got to fishermans wharf and then had the most delicious and filling lunch possible, a Huge bowl of Cioppino from Scoma's. We had another restaurant in mind but the nice person at the CA welcome center desk decided we should go to Scoma's instead and she was sooooooo right. We got a corner, waterfront table and impeccable service. Yes, it was expensive, but I got more food than I could have eaten in 2 sittings, and it was one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Saturday we visited the farmers market at bayfair, and found out how badly I'd been missing out on something right under my nose. We then went to Kincaids at Jack london square and had a fabulous lunch. I have to figure out how to make their signature hot crab sandwich that is to die for. Saturday night I did bust out the culinary skills as we entertained mom and family friend (and fellow san leandrite) Jen. I thought the food was good, but it was no Kincaids, Scoma's or Sushi Ave.
