Anti-Black Friday & Small Business Saturday 2018

It was a beautiful morning in Golden Hill...

on the shopping day known as "Black Friday"...

Elijah's revisit + Scrimshaw

Bert and I had a free morning...

and I had a coupon in my wallet for this place...

Blueberry fritters from Krispy Kreme

One of my gal pals at the gym wanted to use up a fundraiser coupon she had...

Her son's team sold these and she wanted to burn one up so we went together after our workout (yes, I know, ironic)...

Franco's Flap Jack Family Restaurant, Bonita

Now that TC has "free time"...

we went out for breakfast like we used to before she could drive...

Yesterday we made our way out here again...

Bert and TC hadn't tried breakfast here yet...

Birthday lunch at Himalayan Curry & Grill

There was an interlude after James Coffee on Pacific Highway...

where we ended up going to Fashion Valley...

Return to Refill + the Egyptian district

Yesterday morning, D and I had a planned morning date...

(as seen on Park Blvd, Hillcrest)

Making sure to get there early...

A failed visit to a new patisserie + return to Elijah's

Bert and I hauled ass to get here...

in the vain hope that maybe...just maybe...

Elijah's Restaurant & Delicatessen

Yesterday I had the pleasure of being with Astroboi...

(heading west on the 52 towards Convoy St.)

the best BF ever as well as trusty driver and willing accomplice in obtaining extra free calendars (but more on that later...)...

Lunch round up - Carnival, Halphen Red, Los Pollos, Pho Convoy, Cali Baguette, the food court in Su Mercado, Sandwich Bags Deli, Gunco Ramen and Mandarin

Time to clear out the memory card before the end of the year,

featuring past lunches...

During Fall Break back in late September,

I met up with Mary for lunch.

Last weekend before coffee at the new Scrimshaw...

we three headed out to La Mesa for breakfast...

Food for Thoughts Cafe + views from Grant Hill Park

Not too far from Dark Horse was a small cafe in the same neighborhood...

(view of downtown San Diego at the top of J St & 26th)

TC took that shot as I drove down the hill looking for a place to park...

Wow Wow Waffle almost 3 years later

When I was out with MFH last weekend, we parked across from this...

our eventual dessert destination. It had been a few years since I'd been here...

Torque Moto Cafe

A few days ago, MFH and I enjoyed our brunch at Dunedin (posted on 9/24 and linked here)...

followed by coffee at another Craftsman home conversion...

Like our brunch spot, Torque just turned or will about to turn one...

Tropical Star Revisit

Last night TC was enjoying homecoming...

After dropping her off, it was time to do a revisit to Tropical Star!
