Show Me Your Dog!

-
Mine was long, thin and a bit charred.

Definitely not as cute my Boston Terrier. BEVO!!!
Wearing the Bianca Earrings ($39).
Then there's one of my favorite b*tches and my lunch dining partner for the day. On my way into work, I asked her to pick a place for lunch. It was a gorgeous day and we wanted something different. We either eat at DW or go to The Market. "Ethiopean?" I was not up to being that adventurous and asked her to try again. She said Showdogs was recommended by a friend of hers. Sold. Check them out at 1020 Market Street in San Francisco.

It was a great day and we walked down Market Street. Sunshine got hollered at numerous times by the men on the street. "Hookie. Hookie. Hookie." What on God's green earth does that mean? "Sunshine, he called you a hooker. Are you going to take that?" Another man yelled at her saying she was a "tall, beautiful woman." Indeed, Sir. I concur. Prepare yourself for some colorful people and comments as you walk down Market Street.

Eventually you'll make it to Showdogs. It's located at the corner of 6th and Market and near Golden Gate Theatre where I last saw Sean Hayes in An Act of God. We got there before noon and it was the perfect time because as soon as I placed my order, turned around to get a cup of water, utensils and napkins, the line was out the door.

A few of their dogs were sold out so I ended up with the House Merguez, a lamb and pork sausage with fig chutney, dijon mustard and arugula. I also ordered us a Cesar with kale, a side of house pickles and a side of the lemon chipotle sauce. Sunshine ordered the Basil Chicken with house mustard, confit garlic and arugula, plus her side of fries. Oh, my personal trainer (Femme Fitcamp).

I enjoyed mine. It had a bit of a kick to it so I added more pickles and the sauce to every bite. When my dog was gone, I ate the leftover fries, dipped them in the remaining sauce and chased it with a pickle. You must've missed Sunshine using my SnapChat (@bappletree) of a fun way I also ate this combination. We do silly things together. We were also sitting at the very corner of the restaurant with floor to ceiling windows on each side facing the busy streets so they all could see how we animals acted during feeding time. It was a sight!

Her Basil Chicken dog was tastier then mine but I made mine an original. The kale Cesar was coated in a thick dressing. I didn't have too much of that but I did kill my container of pickles. "Thatta girl, right?" DW makes our pickles in-house and a bit spicy. They're also crunchy, which I love. I ordered my sandwich and Tara comes in saying she's going to steal a pickle. Before she even put it in her mouth I whined like a newborn. She brought me replacements pickles. I was happy again. Tears had dried.


Good spot, creative combos and it's always better with great company. Sit on the elevated platform and people watch.

The Bad Girls Club & Love Games, Sarah Michaels, IS the Wellness Shot!

I became a fan of the Bad Girls Club when a Season 3 marathon was airing (in 2008, is it?) and I just had the television on while I was doing chores around the house. Every now and then I’d hear “*BEEP* you, you *BEEP*ing *BEEP*!”, some screaming and “This is the Amber Show” do-do-do-do-do-Doo! Eventually I was glued to the screen and not doing chores anymore and spent most of the day laughing and thinking “ohnoshedidn’t!” They were NUTS! I don’t think I could live my life with a camera following me around and for the whole world to see and criticize. But I kept on watching and when fights broke out, my boyfriend would hear the screaming from another room and ask “WHAT are you watching?!?” I am not one for reality television. MTV had it with The Real World with Pedro, Puck, Pam and whoever… when it was in San Francisco. (GO GIANTS!) With all these Big Brother, The Bachelorette and other shows popping up, there were just too many to pick and choose from to watch. And I was never a

My Most Engaging Post Yet

Christmas is just days away. A storm in the Bay Area has passed. Two holiday parties were a success. But these past 18 hours have been a whirlwind for sure. Yesterday evening, after dinner, in our home office discussing the home we are in process of purchasing, holding a gray box from The Shane Company , my boyfriend (wearing a black long sleeved shirt and his Adidas pants with white paint stains from painting the condo earlier this year, and I in jeans, my Toby Keith blue tank top from his Las Vegas “ I Love This Bar ” restaurant, my blue SFSU zipper up sweatshirt, and my brown childhood blanket draped over my lap) got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. “Yeah.” I hugged him tight and kissed him repeatedly. He was shaking and said “I can’t believe you said ‘yes.” I couldn’t stop smiling and crying and saying “I love you.” And I couldn’t help but laugh when I called him my fiancé for the first time. Wow, we’re really engaged! Since we were in the process of negotiati

It's Gonna Be May

I'm sure you've seen it. If you have a friend named May, the *Nsync memes are overtaking your Facebook and Instagram feed, right? Tomorrow ends the month of April and I was 10 posts behind the daily blog post challenge. For this Monday Motivation post, I will keep going until I reach that 30 count. Better late than never! May is turning out to be a busy month. Not surprising for this One Busy Bee. I finally have a set schedule for my part time job as a Concierge at the Argonaut Hotel at Fisherman's Wharf. I really do like the job, what I'm doing, the hotel and staff, and how the time spent here contributes to my experience in the travel and tourism industry, all the while continuing in the hospitality industry as well. Working only about 30 hours a week, it will finally allow me to schedule workouts, get in some sort of sleeping pattern and work on my business as a Travel Agent . There is so much to do! So far since I received the month's work schedule
