Lazy Sunday
One of my favorite places to relax on a Sunday is Cocola which is located at the Stanford Mall in Palo Alto. The pastries are like works of art, and their lattes are rich and creamy.
The aroma of fresh brewed coffee and pastries reminds me of sitting in a cafe in Tuscany, or Paris. You pick from an assortment of exotic salads, or throw caution to the wind and treat yourself to a pastry.
It’s located in a piazza of sorts. As you relax outside you’ll find yourself next to a gourmet market called Sigona’s.
This is a must see market where you’ll find exotic foods including local eggs which have shells that are green, red and blue.
Time seems to move slower here…if you’re in the area I hope you’ll take a moment to relax, and sip your own latte.
Decorating Early
Ahhhh…yes…..I love the holidays! It’s early…and I’m owning it. Its time to crack out the decorations! 😉 Hope you decorate early too!
Always Remember
It’s Time for Jeans and a Glass of Wine
The perfect end to a long day: Worn jeans and a glass of wine…bubbly…or yes, even Pellegrino. 😉 But either way the worn jean are a must. As you see the clock ticking by on this beautiful Thursday afternoon…see if you can schedule some time to relax when you get home. Cheers!
