And I am in the area a couple of times a year, but never IN SF :( It's clear that if I ever want to tour the bakeries of a city, that I need to fly you out as my guide! You really know how to explore the culinary side of a town. Cool that you met Allen, as I have recently discovered his blog and just adore him. Great minds... :) So when is your trip to CO?! xxooJen Yuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09376636620757817569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589144729472463179.post-13682779669867118732009-05-26T13:54:15.001-04:002009-05-26T13:54:15.001-04:00I have family in San Fran and love going there.
