neither here nor there

So this one is a little bit of a cheat because I’ve been to Hudson Bay a bazillion times. It’s also known as Enrique’s* office because he spent most of his unempolyment doing job applications and nerdy web stuff here.

The music is good but not distracting, the tea isn’t Peets, but then again it’s significantly better than MightyLeaf. The pastries are good (same bakery as Peets) and they offer some tasty salads and sandwiches.

Best of all, Hudson Bay is located in my favorite Rockridge hot spot. Standing in front of Hudson Bay, I could spit on my favorite bookstore, yoga studio, and the aforementioned Bittersweet as well as the super awesome Rockridge Home.

*My husband (previously named Dale) is a giant cyber nerd. Yesterday he informed me that real bloggers don’t use the real names of anyone in their writing. I asked if this was for security reasons and he didn’t seem to think so. Apparently, he prefers blogs written more anonymously. I don’t feel like saying “my husband,” or “that guy I live with” so for now we shall call him Enrique.
