What a Week!

I have posted before about our typical week. This past week takes the cake on packing things in:

On Friday, March 8th we filed our 10-K at work at 5am (for those who aren’t accounting geeks, our 10-K is like our annual Superbowl and kind of a big deal).  So with our work officially done for the year, we celebrated with breakfast at Denny’s and shots of whiskey at the local dive bar... at 7am.   I was home and in bed by 1pm. 



The only way to truly get rid of a whiskey hangover is with Chinese food and thankfully we had plans to meet up with the family for dim sum on Saturday.  Martin passed on the opportunity, claiming he had work to do, but I am pretty sure it was because he doesn't like dim sum... thankfully for me Oskar loves it so I at least have some support. 

Martin and I managed to sneak in a date night on Tuesday to go see Max Raabe at the San Francisco Symphony Hall… I have been wanting to see him for a few years and found out he was coming a few weeks early thanks to my Sunday Chronicle... it was amazing. 

Wednesday was a throw away day at work with Soul Cycle over lunch and an early departure to meet with Alva’s teacher (all good).  We sprung the kids out of school early, went to the playground and had an early dinner of sushi at the local, family friendly Sushi on North Beach… although it clearly wasn’t early enough since Alva fell asleep at the table.  

She wouldn't let Martin take the broccoli away...

Oskar loved and ate everything! 
Oskar and I had a coffee and croissant date with his classmate Lucky and his mom Sarah on Thursday morning.  And he and I enjoyed another coffee and croissant just the two of us on Friday before school.

Friday was another rough three hour day in the office… followed by lunch at Zuni CafĂ© with two co-workers and a shopping spree at our friend / co-workers atelier across the street (check her website out at https://www.elleraapparel.com/)

With the weather being gorgeous after a week of rain, on Saturday we headed to Golden Gate Park to see the bison, followed by a picnic at Ocean Beach.  The bison apparently left a lasting impression on Oskar who asked Rachel, his babysitter, to draw a picture of a bison standing up and pooping, later that night while Martin and I took my parents to see Hamilton.  Like most of our favorite date nights, we wrapped up the evening with food truck tacos while waiting for our Lyft. 

Definitely lives up to the hype

From super fancy to super casual in less than three hours
And finally, the weekend was wrapped up with a trip to Trader Joes on Sunday followed by riding scooters and bikes in the alleyway with Jack.

Back to our normal routine
