Incidentally, I received the worst mani-pedi ever today here in Barcelona
My SIL had an Italian customer of hers contract her to go to Sicily for a month to set up a salon and train the technicians. She ended up staying longer because she couldn't leave before they opened. The client that did this lived there and was tired of going to FtL for a decent manicure. Well, that and she was a business person that saw a need.
We almost didn't get SIL back after a month or so of incredible food and living in the shadow of Mount Edna. She didn't even speak Italian when she went there. She picked up a lot and her host was fluent in English.
If I ever manage a F2F in my corner of the world a trip to Rebecca's salon is a must.
Are we back to east coast for next year?
Cass, yeppers. I was wondering when we could start thinking about that. Not that I'm missing my Buffistas or anything.
Btw, side note. Megan and I will be in Joshua Tree right before Thanksgiving, and we'd love to say hi to Mama!Cass.
So long as you catch her before I (make her) whisk her(self) up to Portland, I know she'd love to see you and meet Megan. *This is not off-topic completely since Mama!Cass has a login and has posted. Right?
OMG, less than 4 hours to go here at work!
I hope to see many SFistas on Sunday (Eos), Tuesday (Toronado) and/or Thursday (Calistoga Hot Springs spa place).
If you need my cell phone #, you can email me today or tomorrow, or bug Hec for it after that.
actually, -t, could you send me your cell #? We have an appointment for a tasting at Honig at 3, so it's looking unlikely we'll be at the spa before 4pm... this way I can at least keep you apprised of our ETA.
Insent, Nora. I'm flexible on the time for Thursday, and I think Javacat is as well.
Mmm, Honig.
I'm trying to figure out if I can manage getting to Eos on Sunday. We shall see.
F2f is east coast next year. What cities have we already graced with our presence? Atlanta, I know.
