A perk

Sometimes living in Santa Barbara isn't the dream that it looks like. More hours spent holed up reading theory than basking on the beach.

But sometimes it really is that cool. Like when SuperK and I have event meals along the water.

Sunday, we celebrated the fact that both of us had the same day off. SuperK wanted to go back to this one place on Las Positas, and it was pretty awesome. Brunch at the Boathouse on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, tucked into a cliff along the dog beach, with lovely wait-staff scenery (both SuperK and I left our numbers - choose your own adventure!). And the food wasn't bad either! Vanilla bean french toast with strawberry butter and applewood bacon.


Today, I took SuperK out to Sushi Go-Go for his birthday, which overlooks the Harbor. The menu had some cool offerings, plus we got to watch them sling a tugboat over water. It was a tasty lunch, in perfect weather - a great diversion for a Wednesday!


Sadly, not every day is a picnic. In the meantime, I have to get my scenic snacks by smuggling cinnamon almonds and dried cranberries onto the 8th floor of the library.
