Newest Berkeley food discovery: a Jewish deli with a full bar and craft beer list. A place where I can get pastrami, latkes, and a craft beer on draft?! IS THIS REAL LIFE? Saul’s, I love you.

Hey everybody! How’s your week going? Do you have any plans for the Derby this weekend? Watching the race itself totally stresses me out, but I love hearing all the awesome horse names and having an excuse to drink a serious mint julep (or four).

I just cannot look at pictures of these salted chocolate chunk cookies and NOT want to run to the kitchen immediately to whip them up. These are happening ASAP – will report back re: “best cookie ever” status!!
