My Birthday Surprise


My birthday is this next weekend. Philip planned WAY ahead (like bought tickets in October) for us to fly to San Francisco for the weekend! I'm soooooo excited for a mini vacation! He even got the days off of work for me. He's sneaky like that :)

We're leaving this Friday and coming back on Tuesday. I can't wait and am already looking into shops and restaurants I want to visit. I grew up in California, so I've been to San Francisco quite a bit, but never longer than 2 days. Those visits have always been a little rushed for my liking, so this 5 day business is going to be fun!

Here are some places that we may or may not visit...


Miette looks delicious! We may have to stop there for a chocolate break.

Comstock Saloon looks like a place that Philip might enjoy visiting.

Bar Agricole. The interior of this place got me.

Krista recommended going to the Farmer's Market for picnic supplies. That sounds like the best idea!

Bistro 69 is one of those places that we always visit. Their patio is outside on a little walking street- so cute.

Those are just a few eating ideas. Then there's the shopping! I'll be spending a lot of birthday money at second hand stores..
What are your favorite places to visit in San Francisco?

Cupcake Toppers


Here's one set of cupcake toppers for Valentine's day. I have listed it in the shop, but there are more coming. The stand is listed for sale too. It is upcycled out of a 2nd hand plate and cup that I picked up from a thrift store.
I ♥ cupcakes and found a new love in making these little toppers. Hope you enjoy them too :)
