La Corneta Taqueria offers a wide variety of fresh and delicious Mexican food for almost any occasion or taste.
My favorite street in our area is Burlingame Avenue. Â Hoping to try more restaurants in this area. Â My friend who lives here recommended Crepevine so I requested for this when a friend asked what I wanted to try.
Succulents 🙂
They have many things aside from crepes 🙂 
 So happy to see another beautiful friend in the Bay area neighborhood – Gretchen Picache
 I made sure I saw her this trip ! Even if she lives here I noticed she’s always tanned! Finally I found out why !!  🙂  Everytime there’s sun she takes advantage and tans in her backyard after work! It’s also her quiet time alone and everyone in the house knows not to bother her at that time.  Gretchen works in Stanford University and she told me she is thinking of moving back to Manila. Yipee! Maybe one day. She’s been living here for more than 10 years already. #H2HSFO #H2HPeople
But best to try the crepes for the first time 🙂  
 Tuscany Crepes – chicken breast with mushrooms, tomatoes, roasted almonds, provolone and pesto
 I just asked the server what their bestseller was and this was it. #H2HSFO #crepevineburlingame

June is the reason I am a Trader Joe’s addict! Â She is the expert there. Â So many of the stuff she prepares especially the cheese are from TJ and I love them. Â I enjoy the cocktails we have at her place
I love her dates!! She removed the seed, cooked them with olive oil till a little crispy on sides and sprinkle sea salt.  It’s yummy with cheese 
  I love her colorful kitchen ( with background music ) and this time she cooked paella. Previous entry:  Dinner by June October 17, 2014

We woke up very early today to go to the Alameda Point Antiques Faire #alamedapointantiquesfaire which happens only once a month every first Sunday of the month. It was easy to get there since it was a Sunday. It’s held in a big open space by the Oakland port. Hundreds of cars park and so many stalls of antiques It’s from 6am to 3pm and there’s an entrance fee of $10.00 #H2HSFO
You will really need a cart so bring one if you don’t want to rent
See what I mean!! haha!! 🙂

Even those that dress up for the occasion they fit in so well 🙂
