Yesterday I went to Beverly's for the Christmas Open House. Lots of sales for anything you need to do the craft of your choice. I spent the last of my gift card that was given to me by my wonderful husband. He gives me one every year and I spend it very carefully so it will last all year. Thank goodness it's Nov and hopefully he will give me another one for christmas this year.
Had a great time last night at the Ackerman “Suck it up Holiday Party.” The theme this year was “Wear Your Favorite Holiday” costume. It was a lot of fun and people were very creative. Had a blast tasting 10 different Champaign’s and rating them. It was interesting to note the $320 bottle of Champaign wasn’t very popular.
Had lunch at Buck’s of Woodside restaurant. For the past two decades the restaurant Buck’s of Woodside has been an anchor of Silicon Valley. While known for it’s wacky decor, it’s also known as a breeding ground for tech companies such as monumental moments in the history such as the first demos of PayPal to the incorporation of Hotmail. Buck’s is one of the only restaurants that’s near the venture capital world. So, if you’re raising money on Sand Hill road, it’s not too far of a drive. The second you walk in the door you are accosted by the chotchkies in the restaurant on the wall, hanging from the ceiling, the floor, everywhere imaginable and then some.
