Weekending by the Bay

March 9, 2015 by Hillary 2 Comments

This past weekend, P and I made our way over to the Bay Area on Saturday. We shopped in Pleasanton, enjoyed lunchtime cocktails and light eats in Jack London Square (Oakland), waited in the 30+ minute line for infamous Ici ice cream, and then ended the evening enjoying an extra large basket of chips and guac al fresco.

It truly does not feel like winter, or even early spring, in California. Please don’t hate, New Englanders, for complaining about blue skies and 75+ degree weather, but I am not quite ready to be running in shorts and a tank.

We finally waited in the long (30+ minute wait) line for a single scoop cone.

    Ha, it was 85 degrees in San Diego last weekend and totally felt like summer!

    I have to ask… was the ice cream worth the line? If it was THAT good, then I’d wait for 30 minutes for it, too :)

      It was definitely good, but probably not the best I’ve had. I would like to try other flavors…

This rare blue sky day in February is having me da This rare blue sky day in February is having me day dreaming about long, light-filled summer days... they’ll be here soon.

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
