No better way to kick start our Labor Day long weekend, but with a 5 hour road trip to grab lunch! Yesterday, we decided to take a quick drive to Sonoma to eat at the Girl and the Fig. I had read about them in Sunset magazine, as having the best fig spreads in the whole of US of A. We had driven to Sonoma a few times over the past months, and although we had stopped by the Girl to stock up on their OH SO GOOD fig spreads, every time we were lured by strong forces from the crazy beautiful patio of the Sunflower Cafe and we couldn't stay for lunch at the Girl. Sunflower Cafe is officially an Espresso and Wine Bar, which actually is an art gallery, and also actually, is a fantastic restaurant with local, organic and most creative gourmet country foods like awesome cheese appetizers (once we had fresh goat cheese wrapped in fire grilled red peppers, drizzled with olive oil, pistachios and orange zest, OK?), salads that have brought tears to my eyes on more than one occasion,
