Pauline Frommer is keeping her legendary father Arthur Frommer's legacy alive and well. Frommer's Guides -- now in their 69th year -- with over 75 million books sold, is still going strong thanks to Pualine's leadership.

We were delighted to host this travel guru last week who shared her travel tips ranging from how to save money booking airfares to why VRBO is better than AirBNB. (with the caveat that hotel rates these days are often a much more economic alternative!) Pauline also shared her NYC favorites since her book --FROMMER'S NEW YORK CITY 2026 -- is the current bestselling guide to the city. We have LOTS of Frommer's Guides to choose from...all signed by Pauline. And we're happy to share her Travel Tip Guide.

Thank you Pauline and Happy Trails!

And we DO have a few of her travel guides to share....including (for display only) my vintage copy of EUROPE ON $5 DAY....the 1971-72 edition!

The brilliant Dr. David Rabin (MD, PhD, neuroscientist) discussed his debut book A SIMPLE GUIDE TO STAYING ALIVE – which examines not only why so many people feel overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious & lonely (hello!), but how to address these issues with a no-nonsense framework for improving mental health through the science of safety. A step by step guide. Truly a simple one. We think you’ll like it.

We are a proud purveyor of Amphora olive oils and balsamic vinegars and are excited to share our recent re-stock of VERY fresh Arbequina, extra virgin olive oil from Chile. JUST crushed in May, so it's very fresh and delicious with floral and almond hints. One of my personal favorites.

We only stock so many bottles at a time to ensure nothing sits on the shelf for too long. And these never do!

We also brought in some delicious new vinegars: a Barrel-Aged Honey Ginger White Balsamic and a known crowd pleaser: the Black Mission Fig Dark Balsamic. Grab a couple bottles while they last! Pairs well with an Italian Mierco tea-towel and a cookbook for a hostess gift!

What's in a word? A lot when paired with 196 photos taken over 50 years. Jim Wood's new book THIRTY WORDS is photographic memoir and a provocative ode/hope for humanity. At 90 years of age, Jim is urging all to make the most of our short time on earth and to "be the change you wish to see in the world." The author and founder of Marin Magazine joined us for a wonderful evening last week. We have signed copies of his book which makes for a great conversation piece at a party!

Our Book Club was delighted to host local author Vanessa Hua last week discussing her new novel COYOTELAND. A searing and insightful portrait of a woke suburban neighborbhood in the East Bay, struggling with race and class, generational conflicts and the daunting impact of the digital world today. We have signed copies of this great book as well as Vanessa's other novels.
