I met Costa yesterday! What a wonderful fun lady! I don't remember ever meeting someone so sweet and fun. She picked me up from the train station and we went to Horton Plaza. Bought a few items then we went to Seaport Village. Shopped then had some Greek Food for lunch and then shopped a bit more. After that we headed to her place then we walked around her neighborhood. Found a great soap place that had these awesome bathrobes. Her and I both got matching pink ones. They are so soft and and warm! We then went to this great little restaraunt and had a fruit & cheese platter that was to die for! Went to Blockbuster & Ralphs to pick up a few more items, went back to her place had some more bread & cheese, attempted to watch the movie but we were both so tired we called it a night. This morning we went to a farmers market that was really cute & quaint. Purchased a few items ( I am eating as I am writing this a raisin bagel that is absolutely yummy!) She then took me to the train and I am now home. It was a wonderful wonderful wonderful weekend away. Great company! and very relaxing. OH! I spoke with Ginger this AM too! While having coffee I was able to talk to her a bit and I am now planning trip to New York next year to visit her I can't wait!!! Costacat has some pix to post at a later time...again...wonderful lady to meet!

Great pictures, Costa! You two (and the kitties) are so cute, and I love the robes. That's a pretty afghan you have going too, Zmom, I know Ginger will treasure it.

Those pink robes... I think we corrupted each other! First, I was wearing a pink sweater, and ZM also loves pink. And when we wandered into this great new bath shop in my neighborhood, they had these truly awesome bathrobes. SOOOO soft and warm! And pink! And LONG! (Long for me means it's almost ankle length and that's SO difficult to find!) And pink! And we kinda sorta looked at each other, raised an eyebrow, and grabbed one each! After dinner and a couple more stops, we went back to my place and put on jammies and robes. The coolest thing? As ZM said... "every time I wear this I'll think of you". So every time we wear our robes, we'll BOTH be think of the San Diego Shopping Trip in Ginger's Honor! ETA: Funny how we both have long hair. Only... her's is straight (and I'm so jealous!) and mine is curly!

It was a wonderful weekend! Costacat has this vibe about her, so easy to talk to and she's so funny. We laughed so many times. We shopped AND walked from the time I got there at 11:40 til 7pm that night! Costacat has the greatest condo, with built in bookshelves! As my son would say "So cozy". San Diego has changed so much since the last time I was there, I miss it! Her kitties..what can I say, I fell in love with both of them. Costa on the afghan was the sweetest moment. He was sooooo content! Big compliment to me ...lol. The pink robes are the best (wearing mine now)..we can start a club, the pink(robe) ladies!

That Afghan will match my house - and my room exactly. How did you know? You must be psychic. It is beautiful. It was so great talking to you both and I was so jealous that I was not there with you. I look forward to both of you coming to NY so we can have fun here. Hopefully I will be back at my "real" home by then.

ZM was so excited to hear that the colors were going to be a perfect match to Ginger's home! And the yarn is so soft. It's going to be almost as warm as our pink bathrobes! (Which, well, OK... I'm wearing right now!) Bellinis!!!
