Hipcooks
I learned the science of measurement in chemistry class. In art class I learned art is subjective. Hipcooks seems to be a mixture of science and art. After being greeted we gathered around the big table in the middle of the room.

The Grill at Torrey Pines
Lush green grass drops off into the blue sea. Iconic torrey pines dot the landscape. In front of me is the golf course Tiger Woods use to play at yearly.

The San Diego Wild Animal Park AKA ‘Safari Park’
The Butterfly exhibit Note: This exhibit runs yearly for a limited time. This year it’s from March 11th to April 23rd 2017. It will always be ‘The San Diego Wild Animal Park’ to me. After all it was part of the singing introduction of Three’s Company television show for years. Janet, (Joyce DeWitt) Chrissy (Suzanne Somers) and Jack (John Ritter) stood by the entrance sign posing and smiling for all to see. Gotta love that!

After trying various frostings from Safeway I preferred the cupcakes without frosting. Sprinkles was the first gourmet cupcake shop to open in the area and I visit on my birthday every year for my free cupcake. 🙂
