My friend Brooke and I went and stayed at Cavallo Point in Sausalito.
Absoulutely breathtaking.
It has the best spa, and yoga classes. Not to mention the Michelon- star Restaurant in the Hotel.... Oh and the homemade pastries every morning with homemade butter- Im starving myself for the next month!
This is when my mom pipes in and says
"You say that about everything Rachel, is there anything thats not the best ever"
so I may get a little excited over some things.
However,
I promise if you stay in this Zen little piece of Heaven with the best view, you wont be disappointed.
We also took a cooking class, that was so much fun and super yummy.
All organic cooking from the Farmers Market.
Our menu was:
Avocado, cucumber and tomato salad with parsley lime vinaigrette and pickled shrimp
Pan roasted coriander and Fennel Rubbed Lamb
Chops with smoked onions and garlic
Polenta corn fries with feta fondue
Ratatouille
Black peppered ice cream with fresh berry compote, rosemary syrup and coco nib, almond and parmesan biscotti. Sounds funky but out of this world.

spa (not kidding, best massage I have ever had. )

Say what?! Yes we were there all day Saturday. I hit up Whole Foods in Mill Valley, we hung out Muir woods, and then went and got our Ghiradellis hot fudge sundaes while the boys played at the beach at Golden Gate Park. I would have died to see a familiar face. How fun that you had a little vacation with a friend. Miss you guys
