I scream, you scream

Today was a beautiful, sunny 70 degree spring day. We almost never get weather like this here in SF because of the fog issues. Basically if it's really warm in the central valley (which it is for most of the summer and other times of the year) that warmth will pull the cold air from over the ocean inland towards the East Bay and Central Valley. That causes fog leaving SF shivering and gray in the height of summer. So our good warm times of the year tend to be spring or fall, when it's not so hot in the central valley and we can build up our own warmth. Today was one of those days. Luckily today was also a Sunday so I got to spend the day with D. We made vegan sourdough pancakes for brunch and then went outside to test the weather. We determined that a bike ride was necessary but our usual destination, Ocean Beach, was bound to be chillier than where we are now. New destination: Maggie Mudd's Ice Cream in Bernal Heights. Maggie Mudd's is an amazing ice cream shop because they have the most delicious vegan ice creams you will ever find. They are not full of wacky weirdness and are satisfyingly fabulous. Examples of flavors that were on the board today (but that I did not try): Chocolate cardamom, black sesame, coconut pineapple, Memphis mud pie, and strawberry tequila. You can also get vegan ice cream sundaes, "milk" shakes, and banana splits. Heaven for vegans with an ice cream craving! I went with green tea and dark chocolate. Happiness!
