This weekend Dave’s mom and her boyfriend came up to visit us while they are still in California. They came up on Friday, and after work we all went to dinner at Palazzio, and then came back to our place for awhile and hung out.

On Saturday morning the two of them went for a bike ride in the morning and when they got back we headed to the Farmers Market to check things out and also to see if they had ingredients Dave needed for the dinner he was going to make.

After the market we walked around State Street a bit, doing some shop browsing, before joining the boyfriend’s sister and her husband for lunch at Natural Cafe. We then proceeded to the Urban Wine Trail and did a free tasting at Kalyra (thanks to my membership). Everyone also got some wine and merchandise since I get my member discount—Dave’s mom and her boyfriend even got Kalyra cycling jerseys, since they are all into that stuff.

After the winery, we headed back to our apartment where Dave started cooking the dinner—chicken tikka masala. After eating the delicious dinner, we hung out and talked for quite awhile, before agreeing to meet for breakfast in the morning.

For breakfast, we chose to eat at Pacific Crepes, which is of course an awesome place. I got the fruit breakfast crepe, which is always delicious. I love that place, and I think everyone was happy with their selections.

After breakfast, they took off back down south. All in all it turned out to be a good weekend—and we were lucky that the weather was so fantastic since it was pouring during the week and it even rained on their drive up. They were also lucky that they were able to have nice weather so that they could cycle in the mornings—something they hadn’t been able to do for a week or two because of all that rain. So, it turned out perfect!
