Friday Fun: Smiling Trio in Santa Barbara Wine Country!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

Everyone we have spoken to this week is taking off early, so yesterday, we decided to take of for a lunch jaunt to the wine country.  We stopped by our favorite bakery,  The Baker's Table, to replenish our stash of chocolate espresso cookies, and to buy bread.  

 

Amy Dixon, the owner, makes the best French style baguette and Italian ciabatta and supplies the best restaurants in Santa Barbara County.  She uses local and organic ingredients.  You can also have breakfast and lunch there.

 

As we walked out with our purchases, we spotted this trio wagging their tails when we approached.  They wanted attention and affection and were delighted to have their photo taken.

 

Happy Friday,

Hi A... Ron and Alexandra Seigel ... These 3 certainly have the cuteness turned up to 12! Great photo and now I'm craving a baguette or ciabatta dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar with a nice glass of red! Have a great 4th of July holiday you two!

They may have wanted a sandwich too, Alexandra. Aren't they gorgeous? And safe, I'm sure.

Paul S. Henderson, Realtor, Tacoma Washington the whole facial recognition is to target you and your friends with appropriate advertising and marketing.  Those with dogs will probably get dog food ads and other products.  We are passing on this free app, I would rather pay Apple to sort my photos and give our friends privacy.

John McCormack I think I need to find a recipe for these and try to make them myself, they would make a great gift!

Linda Blumenthal I am sure they would have loved a treat, however, we have make it a policy to always ask the owner if it is OK, and the owner was not around, and we did not have any dog type treats.

Noah Seidenberg Our wine country here is so different than Napa's.  Most of the wineries are not set up for wine tasting, so there are plenty of tasting rooms in the little towns that surround them.  We even have an Urban Wine Trail in town.

Patricia Feager, MBA, GRI, Cert Negotiations Expert, Military Relo Prof they were happy to give out their unconditional love vibes, and delighted to have us give attention and a scratch on their heads.

Hannah Williams thanks and you have a great 4th.  It seems that we keep attracting dogs, when we go there.  Last time is was a trio of St Bernards.  The third one was too comfy to come to the window for his photo.

Nicole Doty - Gilbert Real Estate Expert yes, definitely a typhoon created with those tails, much needed as it was warm up there by 20 degrees more than where we are by the ocean.

Dick Greenberg there is nothing like the hand of a great baker.  Her repertoire includes amazing croissants and pain au chocolat.  Ron had to have a pain au chocolat as an appetizer prior to our lunch an hour later.

Rene Fabre we call it terminal cuteness.  They were precious to say the least. We are having a caprese salad for lunch, which is why I bought that ciabatta, it is such a great accompaniment to the salad.

What a trio they are.  When our boys go on ride alongs, they about knock the arm rest off the car door wagging their tails.  People walk by and don't know what to think.  Of course if they get too close, they get one heck of a slobbery kiss.
