PEACOCK RETURNS HOME: HIP-HOPPIN IN THE BAY






































































It had been over two years since I (Siggi) had made a visit home to Oakland/San Francisco, so we thought our recent engagement would be the perfect excuse to go back and see my family! During the day, I showed Martellus my old apartments and hangouts, and we ate lunch at one of my favorite pizza places, Roundtable (Blondie's is a close 2nd)! The we headed over to artsy Berkeley and shopped at some of the boutiques on Telegraph until later that evening, when my unbelievably gracious cousin, Jennifer, and her boyfriend Paul (along with his super-smart son, Fletcher) hosted a dinner for us and all of my friends. Not only was Jennifer's home-cooked meal delicious, but their studio apartment was AWESOME! Jen's an interior decorator and Paul builds beautiful furniture, so it is only natural that their home would be so cool and unique! I can't even begin to describe how happy I was to see all of my friends, especially since I've known them all since I was a little girl! I'm tremendously proud of each and every one of them, they have all grown up to be beautiful, talented, and intelligent women, and it meant a lot that Martellus could meet them and that he fit in so perfectly with my family! Truly, as I'm sure you could imagine, he was the life of the party! Stay tuned for Day 2 of our trip to the Bay Area, coming soon!
