Chartreuse
We were in the Castro to check out their night market. Very lively. Secondarily, Andrea wanted to check out this new-ish liquor store called Full Proof.

Caviar at Home
We didn’t really plan anything for Caviar Day, but we did want to give it a bit of recognition. Andrea picked up some Tsar Nicolai caviar at Whole Foods and some potato chips and we did a mini celebration.

Fried Spam and Eggs for Breakfast
I don’t eat breakfast and I don’t normally eat spam when we’re at home, but it’s a tradition for me to eat fried spam and eggs when I’m in Hawaii. We picked up this special Lilo & Stitch edition of Spam Classic when we shopped at Foodland Farms.
