24 hours in the city by the bay

On Sunday night I flew up to San Francisco and spent the night at my brother’s house. He cooked me my favorite of his dishes, called Hashish Parmetier (but I have no idea how to spell it). It’s a bunch of vegetables and spices cooked up and then stirred up with mashed potatoes, then you spread that delicious goodness in a casserole dish and cover it with thin slices of gruyere cheese. Finally, you put it in the broiler until the cheese melts and then…oh yum-o!

We ate dinner on the floor in the living room and we talked and talked. I am so glad for our openness with each other when we can actually find the time to hang out together one on one.

On Monday I woke up and took the bus (yay!) to the SF studio to do some work and then I spent a too-short lunch with Jenni. And I got to meet Kiki, the cutest girl puppy ever. The day was cool, crisp and clear and perfect. My heart is so full when I visit San Francisco…

  1. Love that you got to go back to SF for awhile. That city truly is amazing. Miss you!

  2. I’m jealous – I *still* haven’t been up there for a vacation.

    Oh, and after fundraising for an album, can we fundraise to get your brother some furniture? 😉

  3. hey… I asked if you wanted to sit at the table.

    I have a table, and a couple chairs too.

    really.

  4. It’s true – he does have a table and chairs. We actually *chose* to have our dinner on the floor and it felt perfect…
