A Really Fun Day at Crystal Cove

The Tre Stagioni had a really fun day planned by our friend Mitra in early July.  It was a very busy month and I can't believe I have not blogged about our outing. 

 Our main destination was the Crystal Cove shopping area just north of Laguna Beach.  

 The shops and the walkways so beautiful and the blue Pacific is just across the highway.

 A beautiful setting

 There are many wonderful restaurants here  but our destination chosen by Mitra was Javier's.

  Best margaritas in town

 

 

 

 great food

beautiful ocean views too

 Next destination The Montage Hotel in Laguna

 we explored the hotel grounds

 and enjoyed the ocean views

 Then we relaxed on the veranda of the hotel

 

 and Marion got her afternoon coffee

 One last look at this beautiful property

 Time to head home tre stagioni. 

What a great day. Thank you Mitra for planning such a perfect summer outing.

Lunch at Kabuki

In late August the Tre Stagioni met up for lunch at Kabuki in Cerritos. It's one of our favorite places for Japanese food.

After lunch we relaxed at Marion's home

I guess you can say, 
"We like each other's company!"

Cheers!

Happy Hour For The Tre Stagioni

Happy is any hour that we three happen to be together.  This particular happy hour was on Wednesday, September 16th. 
 Here we go again!!!!!

Mariko Comes To Visit

When my cousins daughter Mariko visited in early September we all gathered to welcome her.

  It was a fun time for all the family to be together. Nancy made tacos and everyone brought lots of good dishes to add to the mexican themed dinner.

Cousin Ann's corn and jicama salad was a big hit

 Cousins Jocelyn and Nancy

 Nancy was frying tortillas on a hot summer night

 Then the electricity went out...

 Nancy started lighting candles

 It was exciting and in the end rather special

Three yummy desserts: Jocelyn's chocolate cake, Nancy's flan and Ann's apricot ice cream were perfect endings to a wonderful dinner.
