Can you believe I've lived here 10 years and have never taken the Land's end walk? Crazy! So I jumped at the chance of having breakfast with one of my favorite people (Matt) and he, Laurie & I enjoyed the first couple hours of Thanksgiving together hiking, walking & talking.

Such a beautiful day... so much to be thankful for! xo

beautiful scenery
I love this photo, because the exposure I took it at makes the ocean look tropical!

After stopping at the store for salad stuff (my Thanksgiving dinner contribution), I came home to this site in my neighbor's yard:

Eegads, huh? I was like eewww! (but obviously could be 'yum', depending how you look at it. :p) Nathan was stoked. He's a gourmand, so I was happy for him. He loves stuff like that & I'm sure it came out amazing. There's a few more pics of piggy here if you're into it.

By 3pm I had made my kick ass salad, picked up Ali & off we went to our friend's Trevor & Ana's in the East Bay. They just moved into a sweet little place in Oakland that's like 'a real house' and made me green with envy for an office space like they have! (*gah* I want a bigger place, universe - you hear me!?) Anyway, it was awesome to see them & it didn't take long for us to settle into the spirit (aka start drinking lots of delicious wine).

Ooh & we got to see some new packaging artwork/designs for HIJK's new CD (Trevor's the drummer for HIJK, the band formerly known as Hijack the Disco... they just changed their name), and it looks great! *sigh* Those boys are so talented!

Dinner was delicious & then we all played a super fun game afterwards, called Mad Gab - have you played that? It's hysterical. I wish I had some video of that, because as at one point I was crying laughing. So funny! Then, after everyone else went home, Trevor, Ana, Ali & I watched Click, but Ali & I slept through most of it. (Can I blame it on the tryptophan?)

Anyway - super fun day. Here's a few photos from dinner. Thanks to Trevor & Ana for hosting us, and hope everyone who's reading this had a great Thanksgiving, too!
