We did a Thanksgiving Lunch at the Bistro in downtown Sonoma. I needed a [...]

Cal Good:
The Bears knocked down Stanfurd last weekend. Go Bears! We watched the game on a couple of flat screen TVs at the Kezar Bar in SF. We had a nice mix of Berkeley and Tree fans – cheering on our [...]

Bring Your Bear To Work Day

For Halloween, I brought in some Halloween Oreo Cookies for my co-workers. Only 130 calories per package.
I also brought in all my Cal gear for my Tailgate Fashion Show. I asked everyone to bring in their college school gear for our set. Somehow, Andre snuck into my bag. Again.

You remember this bear right? He’s [...]

I Like Coffee

Just in case that Haas job doesn’t work out….

Oh What A Circus

Oh What A Circus, originally uploaded by queenkv.

My hubby works next to a circus. Those oak trees are the site of a showdown between environmental activists, police and the powers that be at UC Berkeley. A judge is expected to decide on a lawsuit challenging Cal’s plan to get rid of the trees and build [...]

Puppy Update

So, it looks like Daisy’s doing better after her second visit to the veterinarian.
Her painful story started Thursday afternoon. She kept licking her front right paw. In the past, she’s been quite good about chewing out the burrs and foxtails from her paws. In fact, she prefers to do it herself instead of letting [...]
