January in photos - part 1

Since I got my new camera last month, I've really enjoyed carrying it around all the time and taking quick shots of day to day things. Unfortunately, I haven't been doing a great job of posting them anywhere. I have most of a month to catch up on, so I'm going to divide it up over a few posts.

champagne with raspberries from my mostly low-key New Year celebration

Rosamunde's chicken cherry sausage with grilled onions and peppers. So good.

Sausage was followed up by a beer next door at Toronado. They had Dogfish 120, which Tim and I
had been searching for for years! Better than I had heard, and extra boozy
(somewhere between 15 and 20% alcohol, goodness!).

As hard as it is to get out of bed early, mornings are just about my favorite time of day.
The Castro, a few blocks from my home, during my daily commute.

It's pretty neat when I step back and think about living in the midst of this amazing neighborhood and landmarks.

Even a trolley! That morning was basically a "visit SF" poster.

A bracelet, sent from my brother and his family, which happened to show up when I was
wearing the perfect matching dress! 

My new favorite ring and sparkly nails left over from NYE. 

Another early morning, another fantastic view, this time looking east to the bay.
