December 24 and 25, 2011. The best gift anyone can give is the gift of quality time. Mini-reunion on Christmas eveMy parents are the last of their generation, and my cousins from both sides make every attempt to spend time with them. On my father’s side, his only sister married a man whose siblings were unmarried, therefore her nine children had no cousins but my dad’s children. Many of us have migrated to the Bay area. For this Christmas eve, we decided to celebrate together, as our mini-reunion. It is important to note that the only ones to whom we gave … (4 comments)

Moving to Alameda CA is a joyous occasion for many people who have discovered this wonderful island city. Many of my clients commute to San Francisco. When they couldn't afford to buy in the City, they decided to look to East Bay. It doesn't take them long to fall in love with our island that is so private and secure, yet so conveniently located for easy access to other cities.
And to find out more about Alameda, here's what Wikipedia says about our lovely island town of Alameda. There is a wonderful collection of vintage … (3 comments)
alameda theater: Please make it easy to post pictures on Localism....it's not intuitive!
- 08/26/08 06:44 PM
Sometime back, I was successful in posting some pictures of my beloved city, Alameda CA Now that we've "claimed" or sponsored communities, I am inspired to tote my camera more frequently so that I can post additional pictures. But once I logged on, I realized after clicking here and there. that we don't have an intuitive method to post pictures. Okay...maybe it's just me. I've forgotten how. Or I am just too blind to see what may be obvious to a lot of people. But shouldn't we have some kind of very visible instruction like "Click here to load pictures" or something … (1 comments)

- 08/19/08 05:02 AM
When Alameda Wine Company opened its doors to Alameda CA next to the historic and newly restored Alameda theater, my friends and I started going there for the wine, the cheese and the company. Because Karen, the proprietor, was so good and so knowledgeable, I blogged about her store and posted it on Localism. Next time I went there, she was so effusive with her thanks that she gave me a huge hug a complimentary glass of wine, and a contant flow of thanks. :) All in a day's work as a REALTOR and blogger. With a greeting like that, what … (2 comments)
alameda theater: A glimpse into the rich history of Alameda -- THE picturesque island on San Francisco Bay
- 08/04/08 06:58 PM
I am not an "original" or native born Alamedan. Nor do I know everything there is to know about Alameda. But I am making an effort to get to know more about this beautiful island. Having lived in New York, New Jersey, Florida and Texas, and having sampled living in San Francisco apartment by the marina, a virtual warehouse loft by the Oakland Estuary before it was gentrified, and in a cozy cottage in downtown Mountain View, I can say without reservation that Alameda is my favorite of all. My quick and easy resource for what life was and is like in … (0 comments)
alameda theater: Alameda Wine Company opens its doors next to Alameda Theater
- 07/31/08 08:01 PM
Welcome, Alameda Wine Company! Alameda, we have arrived! For all oenophiles in Alameda, this is wonderful news indeed! It was a guilty pleasure to go to the Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant at the Ferry Terminal in San Francisco, but we now have our own wine bar next to the Alameda Theater. Today, a friend and I wanted to take a break after hours so we walked to Alameda Wine Company. That's one of the benefits of being downtown --- we walk everywhere. We were greeted by the very friendly Sal Lirosi and owner Karen Ulrich with whom we chatted up a storm. Although … (0 comments)
