Rockridge Redux (4/16/26)

As I said yesterday, this is our second housesit in Rockridge for two really great homeowners (one’s a cookbook writer and editor) and two of the cutest dogs you’ll meet plus their cat, Kimchi, who we are trying to re-win over. It helps that he likes his food, and we are his current source!

They move slow and don’t pull, so it’s okay for his new hip.

Rockridge is a cute residential neighborhood in Oakland, just south of Berkeley, with tree-lined streets, cute markets and restaurants, craftsman bungalows (many built in the 1920s), and great access to public transportation into San Francisco and both San Francisco and Oakland airports.

Many of the houses are also attractively landscaped, and I love looking at all the different plants and flowers.

Speaking of flowers, our homeowners are off to Amsterdam for a river cruise to see the tulips.
