Our weekend with Charles
Charles Barletta, my brother, was here over a recent weekend. We hadn't spent any significant time together in years. Heck, thanks to my stupidity, we hadn't even spoken in years until recently. However, it was like not a day had been missed. I'm so thrilled to have him back in my life. Thanks, bro.
What did we do? Wine country (while listening to Lewis Black's rantings in the car), the Jelly Belly outlet store (makers of JB's, the bext M&M style chocolate candy!), Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Sushi Ran, the Chocolate exhibit at the California Academy of Sciences (noticing a theme?), and the Sony Metreon. Want a glimpse?
First stop: Viansa. Good wine, great food, and what a view. Charles getting back in touch with his Italian roots. 
Amy enjoyed the sunshine of Viansa, too!
Next stop: Kunde. Beautiful cave tour, decent wine and nice grounds. With temperatures over 108 degrees, the sight of any water was welcome! 
More on the next post.
