This weekend, yet again, I had another reason to be thankful for the great family & friends that I have!
Saturday, I got to spend the whole day with some of my favorite people. The Stewarts, Avilas, Nores’ and Beiers went wine tasting in Morgan Hill. We ate a FANTASTIC picnic lunch at Jason-Stephens Winery. Keith loved it so much he bought a whole case of wine. (Party at the Beier’s! WHOO HOO) we wrapped up the day with two little buddies joining us for a relaxing dinner!
Sunday, Melissa, Janel and I spent the first half of the day at Burke Williams, my favorite place because they have a quiet room where you can nap. We hurried around Santa Row, in the rain, to finally decide on eating at Sino, it was goooooood. I highly recommend the spicy prawns with cashews DELICIOUS. We skipped dessert because I NEEDED to go to Pinkberry, the new frozen yogurt place.
As we meandered out of Sino we notice the line at Pinkberry was very, very long. Janel and Melissa did not seem very excited about this… (To their defense, they had not been awaiting the opening of this grand yogurt experience as Alyssa, Maryanne, Jen and I had). To top it off, a girl walks by and said “Pinkberry is such a rip off they charge you so much money for a tiny cup” – Janel thinks this is a sign and we just should not go. Melissa and Janel wanted to go to Kara’s Cupcakes and check what treats they had to offer. Kara’s is good, especially the VERY VANILLA! But, I just could not leave without my yogurt.
I waited in line at Pinkberry while Melissa and Janel headed off for cupcakes. As, I waited in the cold, damp line I started have a feeling that maybe this was not going to be the bliss I had long awaited. I got my original yogurt with raspberries and almonds. I was good, I would get it again. But, so far, nothing has beaten my SWEET RETREAT! Thanks Melissa & Janel for a fun birthday celebration!
Those prawns at Sino our my FAVORITE, and I usually don't like prawns! Sounds like you guys had a great day!
ReplyDeletePinkberry was good, but overpriced. 4 something for a small is not really worth it for me. By the way, the small was three points, I added a point for the topping.
ReplyDeleteAnd the cupcakes? Damn them!!!
I wish we still had a Honey Delight! Was that the name of it?
I think it was Honey Treat...mmmm I loved that place! Someone needs to open one in Morgan Hill!
ReplyDeleteI heart Honey Treat Yogurt! Yes, I'm one of those people who goes back and reads other people's comments. I'm random like that.
ReplyDeleteMe too! It is fun!
