wildsam city guides
I’m headed to San Francisco this afternoon for my sister Joanie’s bachelorette weekend. I’m so over-the-moon excited. It’s my first time to see the city. It’s supposed to rain all weekend. Doesn’t matter. Thank you thank you Joe!
The apartment is clean. The fridge is full. Lux and I made raspberry popsicles, a shared project that is turning into something of a ritual we do together before I go on trips.
I’ve been wanting to buy a Wildsam city guide for awhile and I finally had an excuse to treat myself. They are so well done. I feel practically like a native, and I’m still waiting to take off from Boston! A brief city history told through historical documents, an easy to read map of the neighborhoods, ESSAYS (starry eyes here), and interviews with locals. Throw in the nearly-pocket size and a good-looking cover to seal the deal. Incidentally, if you are an East of Eden fan, the founder Taylor Bruce named the series after Samuel Hamilton. More starry eyes.
Ok, I’m off!

You should eat at Tartine Bakery and/or Bar Tartine. As often as possible! Enjoy.

Have fun! And thanks for the tip about the books – they sound delightful!

What do you put in your raspberry popsicles? I was inspired by your yummy blender photo to make some with my 4 year old using Greek yogurt, pureed fruit and a little honey but they didn’t turn out that great. Ours were kind of bland and icy.

Thanks for your comment! This is the recipe, I love it: http://relish.com/recipes/raspberry-yogurt-popsicles/?utm_source=relish-daily-dish&utm_campaign=2014-06-06&utm_medium=email
Only three ingredients, so you can’t mess with them. Sometimes I hold back on the sugar but the raspberries are TART.
I updated the post with the link as well, thanks!

Thanks! Will try them this weekend. I should’ve known that sugar would work much better than honey!
