NYE -"EVE"

YAY!! My company was so kind as to give all of us Friday Dec 31st off. So Thursday night Price and I went out with a friend of his from school and his wife (who just happen to live in S.D. also). Our outfits dont actually match but in this picture they seem to...i like to pick out clothes for Price, but i SWEAR i would never make him match me in public :)


Preston, like his mommy, loves pictures and wanted to be included. He didnt care that he was half naked :)


Prices friends chose the restaurant, and i'm so glad they did, because it was YUMMO! It was a place called "The Linkery" in North Park. It's a trendy, little, farm-driven cuisine restaurant. I love that everything is local and fresh. They have al the meats and produce on display and the kitchen has large windows so you can watch them make youre food right when you order it!


As you all know, i love taking pictures, but i didn't want to embarrass Price in front of these people i was meeting for only the second time, so sadly I kept my camera stashed in my purse. But i went online and pulled a few snap shots off their website. We did not get either of these meals, but the food we orded was very similar. The 3 of them started with sausage tacos (i has a bite and LOVED it), i had a baked goat cheese. Then for dinner, i had gnocchi, Price had a chicken sandwhich, John had a burger and Nicole had lamb stew. Dessert was a carmel and chocolate swirl cake and fresh pressed coffee!


UUUMMMMM....DESSERT!! (desert with 2 "s" because you always want more! - as my mom always says)


After dinner we had 12:30am (yes, 30 minutes after midnight) reservations at whats called a "speak easy". It is a bar hidden in the back of a restaurant. When you go get there, you have to go down a hallway towards the bathroom and push on what looks like a bunch of kegs stacked ontop of eachother. The wall opens up to a very tiny bar (so small i think it only holds 35 people!)...


Another "trendy" place...their bathrooms are even fully decorated...like the white buck head above the sink???


The back wall (from top to bottom and side to side) is completly covered in gold painted monkey skulls (im hoping fake)...


A downloaded off google pic of the bar...


The ceiling is pretty cool and they have a huge chandelier in the middle which looks awesome because the place is only lit by candlelight...


Another downloaded google pic...The Bartenders...the guy with the trophey is "The Master" and has made us A-mazing drinks each of the 3 times weve been there...

If you're ever in San Diego, make reservations, and check this place out!!

We made it home by 4:30 am and got about 4 hours of sleep before heading out for New Years Eve...another good night!

Lots of Love and Bunches of Hugs
