Helllloooo My Wonderful Beautiful Bay Area!!…  Dim Sum is synonomous to Fun, Good Times, Delicious Food, Variety, Hot Tea and our Wonderful Beautiful Bay Area… or lets say most anywhere where there is a large population of Chinese… As a child growing up in our Wonderful Beautiful Bay Area… my sisters and I looked forward to having our weekly treat of dim sum with our mother… after making the rounds in Chinatown food shopping we got to top off the trip with a meal of dim sum… most dim sum houses are overflowing with folks at noon time… small plates with all kinds of dishes to enjoy!!…  Today… after many many years of  visiting dim sum tea houses throughout the US and the world… one of our very most favorite places is East Ocean Restaurant in the island town of Alameda, CA.

It is owned and operated by a family of sisters… all of whom focus on welcoming everyone who come to dine… It is by far one of the very best places to enjoy dim sum and always always served with a smile….  The mark of any great place to eat is not only the loyalty of its customers but its staff… the staff at East Ocean have been there many many years… there is a devotion to the business and to the people they serve… My husband and I have been loyal customers there for at least 17 years… the food is always fresh and always always served with a smile…  and the price is reasonable… if you’re ever in the mood to have Dim Sum served with lots of smiles… try East Ocean Restaurant.

When you go look for Millie or any of her sisters who will always greet you with a smile and a chat…

Warmest Greetings of the Season to You My Beautiful Wonderful Bay Area… We have so many wonderful neighborhoods all around us… the little island jewel called Alameda… has a little tree lined street called Thompson Avenue that maintains a holiday tradition which began 70 years ago… its come to be known as “Christmas Tree Lane” at holiday time… Every year the 55 homes that make up the 3200 block of  Thompson Avenue becomes a magical holiday showplace… all of the homeowners work to decorate their own homes and work together to decorate the center island… for two weeks before Christmas the residents volunteer to become elves to entertain the children who come to visit Santa in his sleigh…

 There is a special Santa Mailbox where letters can be dropped off for Santa…all letters with legible return addresses are answered and returned to the children who left them in Santa’s Mailbox…

Helloooo & Good Morning  My Beautiful Wonderful San Francisco Bay Area!!… brrrrrrrrr chill in the air…this was the  perfect morning to stay under the covers and listen to the morning news… NOT… jumped up,  gargled some mouthwash, layered up in comfy sweats, my ipod in hand …off for a brisk “good for me” walk at my very most favorite place to go walking… the San Leandro Marina… If you’ve never been… you’ll love it!!..

The best course for me is the oval concourse… walk all the way around it equals 1 mile… gentle upslopes and downslopes and straightaways with exercise apparatus strategically scattered along the way… with the awesome Bay water views all along the way… Its the best… Lots of folks love it as much as I do… its very addicting and so good for your spirit and health…

When I’m done… I’m totally refreshed and ready to face the day! If you dont walk… try it… you just might like it!…

Have a Great Day Everyone!!… Cheers!…

As always… Thanks for checking in… your comments are always welcome…
