Gooooood morning!!!

He made it!! Dexter made his first (and hopefully ONLY) cross country flight yesterday. Tampa to Denver to San Francisco and, finally, to Healdsburg. So far, he has been making himself right at home and slept nestled close to me all night. What a trooper!
My mom and I didn’t get home last night until around 11:30! We toasted with some Cab Franc when we got in and then promptly passed out. This morning, I woke up and she was already cleaning and fixing up everything….I don’t know how she has so much energy when jetlagged and exhausted but, hey, I’m not complaining. I just feel like a bum laying around the floor in my pajamas while she fusses over me. Actually, I’m not gonna lie; it’s sort of nice!
Amazing Meal shake for breakfast!

- 1 scoop chocolate amazing meal
- 1 bunch fresh spinach
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup 1% milk
- 1 spoonful almond butter
- ice
My mom had the same thing
She loves her grass, too! We also had really strong french press + jasmine green tea:

I’m about to hop in the shower and then we are just walking around all day as I give my mom the grand tour of Healdsburg!! Of course, stopping for mandatory wine tastings and eats along the way. I’m thinking we will do a La Crema tasting and maybe drive around Dry Creek Valley as well. Wheewwwww!

Dexter looks right at home! Enjoy your vacay with your mom. If you get the chance, take her to Lococo’s Cucina Rustica. We absolutely love it and go there every time we visit the family in Sonoma.

Glad everyone arrived safely! LOVE that mug!!

Hooray for Dexter arriving! That cat is becoming as much as a world traveler as you!
I love how your mom drinks green smoothies… like mother like daughter!
“Dexter made his first(and hopefully ONLY)cross country flight yesterday”—-
does this mean you’re planning on staying in SF for good???
i know you are so glad to see your cat! it’s hard to be away from our beloved pets! will dexter stay with you from now on? how awesome! enjoy the time with your mom!
Awwww, Dex, what a handsome gentleman! Reminds me of Bing Crosby’s role in the Grace Kelly 1956 ‘High Society.’ He played C. J. Dexter Haven….but Grace’s character, Tracy, called him ‘Dex.’
Here’s the trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10plKsEqHAA
I’ve watched that film so many times could recite all the lines from start to finish.
Welcome to Wine Country, Dex. Don’t go lapping up the vino!
My mom does the same thing when she comes to visit me. Clean clean clean… Haha. I am actually pretty clean already though
Yay Dexter! What a brave guy. Enjoy the day with your mom!
If you go to La Crema – make sure to have the Chardonnay! We served it at our wedding, it’s a great wine. Definitely great wine for the price!
Have a great time with mom and enjoy your weekend. Is Dexter staying with you ?
Beautiful kitty … I love the name Dexter
Having your mom fuss over you is a wonderfully sweet start to a Saturday. Have a lovely time, seems pretty doable in Headlsburg!
Thinking about a tour of Healdsburg instantly takes me to Oakville Grocery, A Rafanelli, Ridge-Lytton Springs, Seghesio, then Dry Creek Kitchen for dinner.
Hope you guys have so much fun today!
Have fun with your mom! I love mom daughter time. And I hope Dexter loves Cali!
La Crema Chard is one my favorites! It’s incredible…I’m waiting for a good deal so I can stock up for the holiday season (especially Thanksgiving!). If you go, have a great time….I’m happy your mom is there to play with you!
So glad your mom and Dexter made it safely. Enjoy!!!!
Have a great weekend!
have a great day with your mom!

Dexter is so adorable! I cannot even imagine what cats think while they are traveling!
where did you get that mug?!
Aw, must be so lovely to see your Mum. I lived away from my family for 5 years after I finished uni and I love it when they’d visit me. I bet your Mum love doing things for you!
Oh that’s so cute that Dexter cuddled up with you! My cat decided to stare at me from my door last night — awkward. haha She’s like a ninja..didn’t here her comin.
I’m glad Dexter is back with you! He has been missed on the blog. (-:
More Dexter photos! There has been a dearth of Dexter on the blog, so bring him on! He looks just like my black kitty, Jammy.
Your mom sounds like my kind of woman – I don’t know if I could PAY my mama to drink her greens! Enjoy your day
YAY dexter is back!!!!!! i can’t wait to see him in january
Thank goodness!!! I know it’s dorky, but I’ve seriously been thinking about Dexter almost every day since you moved to Cali. It’s the cat-obsessed part of me, I suppose. Anyway, I’m so glad that you guys are finally reunited:)…
Oh Dexter is so cute! Enjoy having your kitty back – I know it is so hard to be away from pets
.
Now that you live in california…
Find a Peet’s Coffee and Tea near you…warning though..it’s addicting!
Yay, Dexter! Glad he had a safe trip and was happy to see you
