Some stops are worth building your morning around, like Sugar Pine Cakery & Cafe 🍩🥐�
Maple bars, flaky croissants, and hearty breakfast sandwiches in Tahoe City = YES please. Locals and visitors agree 💛

Wine in hand, sun on your face, and chickens wandering by..🐔🍷
A weekend stop at Smokin’ Barrel Winery feels like stepping into a foothill daydream with relaxed outdoor tastings, friendly faces, and local wine. Save this spot for your next Placer Winery Trail adventure! 🍇

This is HUGE news for Auburn, and for anyone who loves truly great food 💛
Restaurant Josephine has received national recognition, with their two chefs, Eric Alexander and Courtney McDonald, honored among California’s best by the James Beard Foundation (and one look at the plates will tell exactly why) 🙌🏼
The James Beard Awards are often called the “Oscars of food,” recognizing the best chefs and restaurants in the country. Having two chefs from one Auburn kitchen honored is a BIG deal.
Restaurant Josephine is thoughtful, seasonal, and incredibly exceptional. THIS restaurant is the kind of dining experience worth planning a trip for ✨

Some places reward the curious…
Start with coffee at Fourscore Coffee. Then head to the alley, knock on the door, and share the password (hint: it lives on House Divided’s Instagram stories or gets sent straight to your inbox if you’re subscribed 🤫🍸)
Placer County is full of layers. This one’s worth uncovering!

This weekend’s sunshine and warmer weather is TOO good to waste inside. If you’re looking for an easy, feel-good plan.. grab a friend, explore the Placer Wine and Ale Trail, and soak it all in! 🍷🍺

Snow on the beach isn’t just a metaphor here. It’s just as surreal as it sounds ❄️🌊

Auburn didn’t just get a new restaurant.. it got THE one 🥃
From a 28-day dry-aged ribeye to s’mores crème brûlée, every dish at Oakhouse feels intentional, indulgent, and worth lingering over. Add a deep whiskey list, Sierra Nevada–inspired ingredients, and a historic Old Town Auburn setting… ohhh yeah, this one’s different.
This is your cue to save it now, and make that reservation for your next night out!

Snow under your boots, a warm drink by the fire, and that crisp mountain air ❄️ 🤘🏼🔥 This is what your day at Northstar California Resort could look like… and YES, it’s worth the drive.
This is your sign. See you up here! 🏔️

Rainy day rule: find fun INSIDE! ☔️Instead of fighting the weather, lean all the way in and spend the afternoon wandering through Antique Trove. There are several aisles of everything vintage, retro, and nostalgic (including an outdoor area).
Treasure hunting is a great way to spend a rainy-day because there’s no rush, no weather stress, just treasure hunting and getting lost in all the little details 🛍️ 10/10 recommend!
