The last time we got away for a weekend together without kids, it was early 2008. Thanks to our friends, we were able to enjoy a getaway this weekend.
It was much more about the "what" than the "where." While the rest of the Bay Area was a-flutter about snow flurries, we shuffled off to a cottage in the hills, where we hid out and ate cheese, lolled in the hot tub, and fell into 3-hour naps every time we sat down. I will credit Mama with the Scrabble win and an impressive bingo on her first turn -- right after I'd triumphantly plunked down "JOCKS" for 52 points and thought I was going to win. (Her word was TWEEZERS, if you must know. Bingo plus triple word.)
Anyway, here's a picture of cheese. I cannot recommend the sage derby highly enough. Or the naps.
