Howdy Everyone!

Came back from another fun filled trip to San Francisco again.  Yes, for the 3rd time in a row San Fran been winning my heart over and over.  The gorgeous men, delicious food, plenty of walking and the fun day activities and night life that I totally love.

Didn't start off on a good foot due to being late for my flight. Never in a million years as I thought but happened.  Finally booking a last minute flight on a different airline the plane took off from George Bush International and my troubles went away.

For some good ol Southern cooking hit up Brenda's French Soul Food on Polk St.

My goodness alive, never had a great plate of shrimp n grits with a cream biscuit that is exactly like home without the guilt, excessive grease (South is know for good ol' lard and butter deep frying) and a generous amount for the price.  Letting you know, I caught the ITIS and had to walk it off a couple of block before hitting the Asian Art Museum on Larkin St.  What you think I was going to eat a good ol plate of food and walk back to my hotel to nap? Shiiddd, that's for suckers!

The ITIS didn't win today!

The museum was amazing! The staff are generous and the learning experience of Asian art, culture and current exhibitions are on display. Camera photography is not permitted in the exhibitions on display so really the beauty of it is to experience without pulling a camera/video out at every second.  Another hidden gem after my trek is the French Library on Bush St. called Alliance Fracaise  Being a bookworm, my brain geeked out while my thirsty hands touched every book in French and sat down to sorta read a graphic novel.  So if you want to get your nerd on in a different language, buy a book (5.00-2.00) head on to the library to soak as much French from survival to fluent good reads.

Nightlife is the most exciting part of San Francisco of being famous for a party town.  Pretty much everything is poppin' like popcorn.  Happy hour is very different from happy hour from a small town.   The Vestry's Sinful Happy Hour in the Mission District is diivvinnneee!!  Parlor Tricks (the band) played, sampling mac n cheese with tomato jam washing it down with their drink specials.  The Valhalla was the poison of choice and yes I went Asgard--twice.  Thor and the gang was down the street at Blondie's Bar for martinis. Any martini is made, even build your own.  

After much so much fun it was time to say good-bye heading back to the Lone Star State but first a good ass donut from Bob's Donut Shop & Pastry Shop that morning. Thanks to BWWOB creator the fabulous beautiful Mrs. Dee Lefrak for the culinary delight suggestion those are the BEST donuts I've ate in a long time!

Ladies, I urge you to come to San Francisco for a helluva time. Especially non-conformist black women that live in the Southern regions!!!! You can say L.A. and other metro cities for diversity (which I've been) but San Francisco have been my go-to place for three years straight and always a different adventure. Do put on good walking shoes, a smile and an upbeat attitude! Also do keep in shape because of the hills, if not DO get into SHAPE! There's LOTS of WALKING!!! 

P.S. For you single ladies, plenty of good-looking men from all ethnic background and STRAIGHT! Don't let anyone tell you differently, be ready to mingle like a lady with an open-mind to swirl! ;)  It's a mecca for us.

Being diverse and open-minded leads to many adventures:
