This weekend was my annual winter retreat to San Diego to see my friend Erin and get my hair cut and colored. It just so happened that Boise had been blanketed with a nasty inversion for over a week prior to my departure and everyone was just a little cranky about the lack of sunlight. It was the perfect weekend for me to get out of town. It was about 63 when I landed and Erin was a little late picking me up. I told her I would wait outside and she said "What? It's so cold!" Well I suppose that is all relative.
We have been saying for years that we wanted to try the best brunch in San Diego, which happens to be at the Hotel Del Coronado. It was amazing, it really was. And it really should be for the amount of money it costs for one person to eat there. Since it was a ridiculous price, we decided we would try to get our money's worth and be there for at least 3 hours. We were, and it was a lovely 3 hours of conversation with an old friend. There was so much food and of such a high quality, I left zero room for one of the dozens of desserts. Never fear though, Erin had ziplock bags in her oversized purse so I put some cookies in one and a caramel apple in the other. I am fully aware that this is not in any way classy or socially acceptable but I am also happy that I had one heck of a delicious caramel apple for breakfast this morning.
I had such a great time in San Diego this weekend that we have decided to bring Mason down for a visit in March to show him where his parents met and fell in love. I'm sure he'll appreciate that significance. We haven't been back there together for 4 years and we think it's time. Jake has grandparents down there that have never met Mason and we have tons of people to visit. Should be good/crazy times!
