George and I spent the last few days in the Silicon Valley. Rather than do a post about the trip separate from the weekend in photos, I've decided to combine the two. As you might expect, it's a rather food-heavy post. :-)
We scored some unseasonably warm and ordinarily sunny weather in California, and it seems that it was a pleasant weekend in western Washington as well. We ate good food and caught up with even better friends. Overall, it was a great (and slightly exhausting) weekend!

A girlfriend and I took a cooking class on classic French desserts while our husbands earned a different type of dough. Above: ice cream puffs with homemade chocolate sauce, frangipane tart, and chocolate souffle. |
|
We found delicious and (super) spicy Thai food, including pad thai, at Bai Tong. |

Holy amazing food, Batman. If you find yourself in San Jose, stop by La Villa for a meaty deli sandwich, melt-in-your-mouth meatballs, or take out Italian. You won't be disappointed. |

Sally's homemade watermelon and lemon sorbet hit the spot on a 90-degree day. |
|
Would a trip to California be complete without In-N-Out? Absolutely not. |
|
Colorful birds of paradise remind me of when I lived in California. |
|
So many beautiful blooming flowers... |
|
We finally went to see The Hunger Games.
It was a fun date night until we witnessed a semi-serious collision on the way back to the hotel. (We were not involved or harmed in the accident.) |

"Cultural" experience: first ever bubble tea. |
|
We came home to pretty tulips. |
|
And our ferns have been busy preparing the next generation. |
|
And our trees have piled their pollen on George's car. |
How was your weekend?
