It is still HOT over here in SoCal! I don’t think I’m ready for the cold weather in San Francisco, but I’m super excited anyways!!!
Are you going to Foodbuzz? I’m easy to spot, so be sure to tell me Hi 🙂
I’m probably be holding a bowl of clam chowder in a bread bowl the whole time…
I do have to admit that I feel guilty about not bringing Ben to this party. We have road tripped it up for SF in the past and had a total blast. Our minds are made up and as soon as we get a new car we’re back on the California road trip bandwagon again!
Lunch ended up being a super late lunch since I ate so much for breakfast and had some dirty grapes to tide me over around noon.
I tried to talk myself out of a chickpea salad for lunch, but it’s what I really wanted so I went with it. I have a Vitatop for lunch dessert everyday in case you were wondering 🙂
I walked to Subway for a diet Coke since I didn’t have the car and was in desperate need of one.
And I know you guys are dying for an update on my blue toe nails. They’re hanging on.
I made Ben a potato, broccoli and cheese frittata egg scramble for dinner and ended up eating it too. But, I didn’t expect to eat it so there was no pic.
But I did remember to take a picture of these cinnamon rolls I’ve been eating and keep getting questions about. Amaze. They are in the bread section, usually near the muffins or english muffins.

I have dessert waiting for me now…
This afternoon I attempted to do a trial run with my camera to make a video for Ask a Monican. Since I pressed the right button on the camera, answered the questions and didn’t say the f word, I just decided to use my “practice” one.

I love the Vlog! So cute.
A girl thing? A girl thing?
Smells like enchiladas? And what’s wrong with that? Jeesh. To grow up in Pico Rivera…..
I liked the vlog- great questions and answers but I think my favourite thing about it was that the ad and suggested video after ward was something about two girls in a shower as a father’s day present. It cracked me up.
Enjoy San Francisco! I’m jealous- I love it there. And I look forward to more vlogs~
Love your vlog! Can’t wait for more! Have fun in San Fran!
great vlog! have fun at foodbuzz. i’m sure i’ll see you there! 🙂
Can’t wait to see you!
i’ll be at FB…arriving tonight! See you there 🙂
Ah, thanks for posting a picture of those raisin cinnamon rolls. 😛 I’m hitting up the store after classes today.
Also, I love the video-blog idea! (And the smell of enchiladas = so awesome)
Yeah, I don’t think that smelling like enchiladas is a bad thing…
Echo: great vlog!
And isn’t the pineapple Chobani the BEST? My WF quit carrying it. When I asked about it, the guy said they stopped because the supplier couldn’t keep up with the demand. So now I have to search all over the city to find Chobani. I finally found it at Fresh Market (but at twice the cost).
I LOVE the vlog!!!!! Have a wonderful time in SF.
Can you please do all of these “Ask Monica” segments by vlog? This is great! 🙂
HAHahahahaha enchiladas!! I bet you smell like DD coffee or dark chocolate 🙂
Omgosh…enchiladas?! lol well…that’s actually a compliment!! Who doesn’t love enchiladas? 🙂 I wanna smell like nutella.
LOVED the video. I am jealous that you will get to eat clam chowder and bread bowls!
The video was perfect!
Have fun in SF. I still need to get there one day.
You were great in the vlog! Hope you have an awesome time in SF.
Cute pedicure girl! Lived thr vlog, that second question cracked me up 🙂 I just tried vitatops for the first time yesterday and wowzas! They are good. A bit expensive though so I found a recipe on another blog to recreate them for cheaper!
You are so adorable! I can’t wait to meet you this weekend 🙂
YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! You’re awesome!!! It’s pretty hilarious that someone said that you smelt like enchiladas coz I LOVE enchiladas so that’s more of a compliment than an insult.
xxx
Ha! Next time someone says I smell like enchiladas I’ll say “thank you”.
Don’t worry, it’s not cold in San Francisco right now. It was well over 70 today. Which by SoCal standards is “cold” sure, but it is way warmer than the 50 degrees it was all summer. It’s suppose to be in the 60s this weekend which should be nice.
That was a fun vlog!
Have fun in San Fransisco. Be sure to eat an entire loaf of sourdough bread for me.
Will do 🙂
I love your first vlog!! Have fun in San Fran! Billy and I took a great Cali road trip last May and can’t wait to do it again sometime. 🙂
