i swear i'm alive and haven't abandoned this blog!!  i have been gone FOREVER but i have to say, i had an amazing, amazing trip to San Fran.  i am working on a real post (but have a meeting in an hour so i can't get it up in time)....so here is a little pic from our trip: the first one was taken 25 yrs ago when our parents took my brother and i to san francisco for a vacation, the 2nd one was taken at the same place, Sam Woo in Chinatown last week....we've aged a little, and thankfully given up the lovely running jackets and white tennis shoes :)  be back soon, i promise!!!
