I work with a few wineries in Napa Valley and finally had a chance to take my sister there. My sister and our friends Eunice and Chili drove north to Napa. The first winery was Whitehall Lane.

Tasting room manager Daniel gave us a tour of the winery, including the barrel room which is cold and no good for short dresses.


Pairing chocolate and wine




If you go to Whitehall Lane Winery, get the Sauvignon Blanc and Belmuscato! Mmmmm

The 2nd winery was V.Sattui! Wine consultant Gabe is the homie! A couple times a week I talk to Gabe and finally got to meet him face to face.


hooray!

Gabe showed us a trick to see how much alcohol is in our glass.


Angelica is GOOD. The Madeira is excellent too. We got 2 bottles.

My sister is clearly not the designated driver on this trip.

The crabcake from the V.Sattui deli really spoke to me.

We missed out on the famous V.Sattui weekend BBQ...but the deli is still fantastic.

Wine + my therapeutic driving back to the city = sleep time for Chili


I went to southern california to visit Angela and Andrew and to welcome their new baby. I saw this at H&M and LOST MY MIND.

I rack up Virgin America flyer miles, my dude.


Andrew has 3 sons now.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! M O R G A N <3

The next morning I woke up to Jackson taking his toys out to show me all his cool Batman stuff. Then it's breakfast time and he says "Let's go down for breakfast faweesha" and I say "You need to put your toys away" .."okay"

I've chilled with babies before, but a 1 month newborn??? SO PRECIOUS I CANNOT

Angela went upstairs to take a shower, so I'm sitting inbetween her beautiful white children and I am in total awe of this new life in my lap. I was just staring at Morgan for the longest time. I was in full epiphany mode, babies are little miracles.


I'm a protective baby whisperer.

We had lunch at Albatros in Lake Forest. By far my favorite Mexican joint in SoCal. If you get the Carne Asada Fries, ask for it with a tortilla wrap. When you can't finish all of it, you can wrap it up into a burrito for later!!!!!!!! (Albatros Secrets)

Angela is the ultimate Mama Bear, professional Mom of all Moms. I LOVE HER! Happy Birthday Beautiful!

Uniqlo had a pop-up shop before they open the new giant store on Powell St. I never turn down a photobooth.
