Ode to Sacramento

I realized that my blog has no theme at all….but I think I’m okay with that. So to add to my randomness, I decided to capture some of the beautiful things I walk past on my way to work. One of my favorite things about Sacramento is the trees. I love these tulip trees….

And we have orange trees everywhere!

The capitol building and park are so pretty- great for a picnic or to jog around.

I used to hate this city, to be totally honest, but I’ve grown to love it. With midtown’s cute shops, restaurants, and night life if you want it….downtown containing some impressive business with our state’s government and the country’s largest pension fund…and then East Sacramento with the oh so beautiful homes, parks, and “Fabulous Forties”… I’m over wishing I lived somewhere else and am learning to appreciate what I have right in front of me. That’s not to say I’m not looking forward to the next chapter in life, wherever that may be (London?? Seattle??), but I am honestly happy right where I am for now!

*** Some of my midtown favorites: The Bread Store (BEST sandwiches), Old Soul (awesome coffee spot- see pics on “Cheetah Is the New Black”), Moxie for some fabulous finer dining, Time Tested Books (used bookstore), Zanzibar (world imports/free trade store) ***
