On San Francisco Day 6, I got to try the offerings at Cinderella Bakery while my sister went to an appointment, and we let the doggie hunt more gophers in a field during a walk.

Heading out to San Francisco to hang out with my family! My knees have lots of room on planes because I’m short.

My sister’s household has a new member: Yoshi the dog! I got to finally meet him. My sister is his favorite person so he always wants to be next to her.

Yoshi is comfy

We had some sister time at a café sitting in the sun with lattes.

I can’t believe it but this doggie tolerated me enough to sit next to me on the couch!

And we had home-baked pizza for dinner. Yum!

Pizza time!
