Nearly a decade ago on March 31, we began a new national tradition of honoring civil rights and workers advocate César Chávez, who began his organizing career right here in the Silicon Valley — when it was still the Valley of Heart’s Delight. Join us in honoring his legacy today with a random act of service!
What do you do when the rain keeps us indoors and you’ve already finished your Spring cleaning?
If you’re lucky like us and get to work from home, rainy days are a chance to have a little adventure around the house. Explore rooms you don’t use as often and look for items you may have misplaced, like garage keys or jewelry. I just found a bracelet I thought was lost forever!
A little rain never stopped me from going outside. And with all the atmospheric rivers we’ve seen, you’d be advised to give your home a regular check for overflowing gutters, leaky eaves, and potential wind and hail damage to your roof. You never know when the other shoe will drop!
Who doesn’t love an extra day off at the end of the weekend, especially when there’s so much to get done before the springtime thaw! How did you spend your Presidents’ Day?
I spent most of my Monday showing homes to prospective buyers. I guess you might call this work. For me it’s a labor of love, and it’s great to see buyers coming back to the market after a slow holiday season. At the end of the day, we treated ourselves to a hike in the Windy Hill Preserve!
If you know me, you’d probably guess that I used the extra day to get projects done around the house. And normally you’d be right. But just this one time, I got some extra sleep and binge watched classic TV shows until Pearl dragged me out of bed for a sunset hike and some photos!
To honor Black History Month, we invite you to hit up one of the Bay Area’s myriad Black-owned restaurants, bakeries, and eateries. The Bay Area News Group put together a solid list, including some personal favorites like Jackie’s Place in San José.
We hope you will join us on Monday in giving back to our community to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a true American hero and a poet with his prose.
