They have some fun stuff. Sorry for the second post but if you have time (and you probably don’t), check out Praeger Port Works. They have some fun stuff.

I was a prep cook then and loved it. I really miss that place. Fish Taco's and Rainbow Ice Cream Shakes . . . mmmm. I can't wait to get back out there.

I can't believe you haven't had a burger for that long. Way to go on devouring two in one day . . . great way to break a non-carnivorous streak! So glad you enjoyed your trip, Deb!

I've heard that if you dont eat red meat and then eat it, your body can't handle it. Sometimes I think " Oh, I'd love a burger", but then I thing again and can't eat it.

How sad. I too enjoyed wine country and In and Out Burger. I've been longing to revisit both. Thanks for the post! This reminds me so much of my last trip to the West Coast four years ago! How sad.

I LOVE Sinskey too -- it's probably my favorite Napa winery. Mmm, In-n-Out…one of the many reasons I could never move away from California!

I also can't believe I didn't get to eat an In'n'Out burger. Oh well, next time! Looks like you had as much fun as we did :-) I can’t believe we were in Napa at exactly the same time and didn’t run into each other! I also can’t believe I didn’t get to eat an In’n'Out burger.

I'm glad you had a taste of the wonderous thing that is In N Out! Look at all of us giving you these fancy tips, and we forgot to mention the one place we all take for granted: In N Out!

Decades without a burger?! How is that...how is that even CLOSE to possible? And of course you went to In-N-Out, the chain that I tried valiantly--and unsuccessfully, thanks to my snickering family--to visit while in north Cali. Glad you're having a good time, but...good lord, woman. first burger since you were TWELVE... This is me staring in a mixture of utter envy AND abject horror.

I'm reading it now and it's really educational.
