Hello from San Francisco! I’m at my first ever food blogging conference with Foodbuzz and having oh-so-much fun!
Jessica and I met up in Oakland and headed to our hotel with our spectacular view. (That is, if you think that a tempting view of shopping is spectacular.)
I’ve met so many blogging friends…
…and got to see Joelen again!
This is what happens when you have food bloggers touring the city together. If you need a group photo, you ask an unlucky passer-by to take it for you and unload all of your cameras. Line ’em up!
Oh, and did I mention Martha Stewart just randomly walked by when we were having lunch at the Ferry Building? She was rocking leather pants (she’s in the grey jacket, along with her entourage).
Paula Dean? Nope, it’s Ginger, our friend, Jessica’s, mom.
And, I hung out with Jessica Simpson. For realz! Okay, maybe not the Jessica Simpson you’re thinking, but that really is her name!
The best celebrity (although she’s in denial about her awesomeness) – Joy the Baker. LOVE her. Oh yeah, and she has a book deal. More awesomeness.
It’s late. I’m full. I’m tired. I’m heading to bed. I’ll give you more Foodbuzz Festival scoop when I get home. 🙂
So great meeting you, Nikki! You’re so wonderful. Hope to see you at the brunch tomorrow. 🙂
Courtney! I absolutely LOVED you! You are such a gem with a beautiful smile!! We missed the brunch, but I hope our paths cross again in real life!
I love it! So glad we met 🙂 Holding out on us for the TF pictures, huh? 😉
Oh yeah, the BIG unveiling will be soon. Trying to decide if I should post the back-side shot. 😉
My vote is yes…or sell them !:)
This looks like so much fun! I just read Prevention RD’s post on the conference too! Looks great!
It was a GREAT time. Nicole (PreventionRD) is every part of hilarious and fun that you’d hope she’d be!) 🙂
It was nice to chat with you in SF this weekend. Jealous about the Martha viewing!
Susie, It was great chatting with you as well! You might be jealous of the Martha viewing, but I’m jealous of your Hawaiian life! 😉
lovely meeting in the lightroom class, nikki! i’m tempted to call you “penny” because of your blog title. 🙂
haha, Suki! You’re not the only one who has been tempted to call me “Penny”. 🙂
Hey Nikki! So wonderful to meet you! (I hope you don’t mind my snatching some of your pictures! They came out great!!)
Talk soon girly-
“Jessica Simpson”
Ahh, my wonderful new friend who has finally convinced me to jump on the Twitter ship. Awesome recap, and I can’t wait to meet up with you again. I really enjoyed meeting up with you, you are a such a sweetie-pie!!! xxoo
So fun! Next year, next year, NEXT YEAR!
So nice meeting you at the FB festival!
Nikki, it was a pleasure to meet you this weekend – thanks for coming, and hope to see you next year!
That looks like such a wonderfully fun time! WOW! So, when do you want to be featured on my blog? 🙂
Brooke, I’ll do a guest post for you anytime! Just let me know! 🙂
Love that shot of Mom… um, I mean Paula Deen! 🙂 I had so much fun with you gals and I hope it’s not too long before we meet up again!
