scoutOUT!

one thing about leaving a city you've lived in for 7 years is that you are leaving behind 7 years of hard earned 'local' knowledge. like sahadi's in brooklyn - that place was my go-to store for bulk spices. or that baking supply store in chelsea - i loved that place cause it had everything...even those lobster shaped chocolate molds that should be a staple in everyone's kitchen. and i can't forget those precious food finds like toby's, mama's, or city sub...mmmmm, city sub. after 7 years, i pretty much knew where to go for everything i needed.

and now, i must start all over. i'm hoping this time around will be easier and faster - partly because i'm older and more aware of what it is i need/like and partly because i like exploring and discovering new more than i used to (especially with alex). and third-partly because i spent more time visiting san francisco than i ever spent visiting new york. so i have a few precious gems under my belt already.

anyhow, i've decided it'd be good for me (and maybe you) to keep a digital record of our san francisco finds - whether it be an awesome sandwich shop, a great grocery store, or a shop that sells awesome balloons. these things are important and i don't want to forget them or keep them to myself. so go ahead and get ready to look forward to the new series of posts titled scoutOUT!
