Holiday in San Francisco

Today my Mom, Aunt and I went to San Francisco to have lunch, shop and look at all the pretty decorations. We had 11:45am lunch reservations at Kuleto's right near Union Square. It's a very pretty Italian restaurant adjacent/inside the Villa Florence Hotel. I said screw it to my diet and had the saffron risotto with scallops and shrimp, and an affogato for dessert. So I splurged. My Mom treated my Aunt and I as part of out Bday presents.

Then we headed to Holiday Lane in Macy's, which wasn't as big as normal, but still nice. Then my Aunt decided we needed to go take a picture with Santa, so we did. I'm waiting on my Mom to scan the picture.
We had to head to Neiman Marcus after that to look at their beautiful tree, all 4 stories of it. So took some pics from the bottom floor, then headed up to the 3rd floor balcony to see it from up there.
I saw some beautiful Christian Louboutin pumps there that would go perfectly with the dress my Aunt got for my cousin's wedding. But At $725, she decided to pass ;-) It was these, only in a royal blue.

After that we went and looked at the kittens in the Macy's window and then headed to Gumps to see their beautiful ornaments. I spotted this blood orange syrup there that looked so good. Guess you can use it in drinks, on waffles, over ice cream, etc. So I bought a bottle for my Step-Dad for Xmas. Maybe he'll let me try some :-)

I treated myself at this jewelry store to a leather rhinestone bracelet.
I liked it, so I got it. We ended the evening just sitting and watching the ice skaters on Union Square and taking some pictures. It was a really nice day.
