I'm from Chicago originally, went to college out here, spent 6 years in Boston, and moved back to the bay area about two years ago. I recently joined a new gym, and I have to confess, I've become a bit of a gym rat, though I love being outdoors too. I work in SF, so I'm in the city every day, and frequently on weekends as well.
I'm a HUGE foodie-- you know the whole "eat to live" or "live to eat" debate? I fall on the far end of the "live to eat" spectrum. I've been known to travel half an hour (or more) out of the way just to try a new homemade ice cream or the best pastries in town. One of the best things about moving out here is the opportunity to try out tons of new restaurants. If I'm going to eat out, I want it to be somewhere good-- otherwise, I'd rather just cook for myself. I'm a solid cook, but an excellent baker-- if you're lucky, I'll let you try Rachel Cake sometime-- and yes, that's actually its name! :)
