We're moving to San Francisco - flying off the island on August 31, buying a car and then driving across the country from Alabamy. Time to get that dream job in that dream city with my dream guy.

Overcast, dreary skies have always brought with them bright pea-coats and knit scarves and brown boots. Detailed Jack-o-Lanterns and too much candy. Smokey fire pits and an ice cold beer. And Momma's pie and cookies. And family and Christmas trees.

Seriously, follow along with your imagination here: hot Caribbean sun in the sky, waves crashing, toes in the sand, cookbook in hand << that dork is me.
