Moving day is coming up so FAST! We still have so much packing to do! ACK. The movers are set to pick up our stuff on Wednesday and we’re going to drive down to Orange County on Thursday morning. CRAZY. I really can’t believe it’s almost here. It doesn’t seem real somehow. A lot of people are asking if I’m more excited or sad. Definitely both. In equal amounts. I’ve lived in the Bay Area for almost 12 years — since I was 17. So my “adult” life is rooted here but Southern CA will always be “home.”<\/p>\n

So I haven’t mentioned it here because I was waiting for official confirmation and I got it on Friday… my company is letting me keep my job and work remotely from home! YAY. When I gave notice back in December, I mentioned to my boss that I would be interested in working from home if she was willing to try it out. She sent a recommendation to corporate weeks ago and they finally approved it. \ud83d\ude00 Right in the nick of time since my last day in the office is tomorrow (Tuesday). I’m so relieved I don’t have to look for a job! Phew. Plus, I can wear jeans every day. WOOT. It’s always the little things that make me so happy.<\/p>\n

Anyway, Rob and I have been plugging away at our “To Do” list and as expected, we have hit all the foodie items. \ud83d\ude00 OINK OINK. Here’s what we managed to do:<\/p>\n

1. Have the BEST RAMEN EVER at Santa Ramen<\/a>. CHECK!<\/b>
\n2. Have 1 really nice<\/i> (but not necessarily expensive) dinner in San Francisco. CHECK!<\/b>
\nWe went to Michael Mina<\/a> this past Saturday night and it was amazing<\/i>. I was too chicken to take pictures (hee!) so here’s a rundown of our meal (we both got the 3 course dinner):
\nAppetizers – Ahi Tuna Tartare (mmm, melt in your mouth good) and the Trio of Dungeness Crab
\nEntrees – Maine Lobster Pot Pie (this was mine and it was so good I wanted to lick the plate) and the Trio of Brandt Farm Beef
\nDesserts – I opted for the Trio of Chocolate (the white chocolate panna cotta was the only memorable item) and Rob picked the Root Beer Float (awww)
\n3. Have ice cream at Sketch<\/a>. CHECK!<\/b>
\n4. Walk around 4th Street in Berkeley. CHECK!<\/b>
\n5. Have the most AMAZING chicken and waffles breakfast at 900 Grayson<\/a>. CHECK!<\/b>
\n6. Visit the UC Berkeley<\/a> campus, look at the view of the Bay from the top of the Campanile, and purchase as much school paraphernalia as possible. CHECK! And I have pictures too!<\/b><\/p>\n

The Campanile!<\/p>\n

It was pretty hazy so we couldn’t really see across the Bay but we could see the “Big C!”<\/p>\n

Finally, last weekend Rob and I were treated to our very own farewell BBQ. Thanks to Jimmy, Eleen<\/a> (happy anniversary to you two!), Victor and Susie for organizing and hosting! We will miss all of you very much! *sniff*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
