FERRY PLAZA FARMERS MARKET
I was probably most excited about Ferry Plaza than any other one place in San Fran! I LOVE food and trying new foods and especially local FRESH food - and Ferry Plaza is the Mecca of all those things! What I wouldn't give to have access to this kind of food!

Fresh Flowers (for CHEAP!)

Love Fern near death

If this blog were my Love Fern it would be on the back porch dug up by the dog, withered, needing water and close to death. Well Love Fern, sorry about that but I promise to keep you away from the dog, water you and perhaps sprinkle a little fertilizer now and then. This summer was ridiculously busy which explains my lack of posts!

Stay tuned!
