The Rebel Within

We just got back from a weekend in San Francisco, and I finally got to try a Rebel Within muffin at Craftsman & Wolves, a pâtisserie in the Mission. Every other time I’ve swung by, the soft-cooked-egg filled, sausage, chive, Asiago and Parmesan cheese-speckled muffin has been sold out.

Justifiably famous. That’s my verdict.

These guys did an impressive job trying to replicate it.

P.S. A weekend in SF without the kids; Vintage Shopping in SF; and How to ride a Cable Car.

Cutest Cat Cake (and Friday links)

How cute is this cake?! Molly Yeh (of My Name is Yeh) made it using Betty Crocker cake mix, some coconut shreds, some marzipan, a little food coloring, and a touch of spaghetti. So simple and sweet!

Which reminds me… Hudson’s third birthday is right around the corner. Better get cracking on that. Any favorite ideas for a third birthday?

Have a great weekend!

In the meantime, some items worth a second look…

Flight of the Rays

Do you ever find yourself binge-watching nature clips on National Geographic? No? You’re missing out. This video is incredible.

“With wings over 2 meters from tip to tip, why not fly?”

P.S. Our stingray encounter on Grand Cayman. And another favorite nature video, about a clever fox.
