That's what their marquee read this afternoon.
Watch the grand night of Hollywood from the wonderful
and historic environs of the Arlington Theatre starting

Anderson's Bakery on State Street

Start your day with any of Andersen's mouthwatering pastries—fresh out of the oven at 8:00AM every morning. We use approximately 2 tons of marzipan every year in these tasty delights. Try the traditionally Danish Kringle or Butter Ring, or maybe a warm apple strudel straight from the oven.

Storm walloped version!

Man...this is alot of rain coming down. I think that the Bay Area got slammed more than we have down on the Central Coast of California, but the first of the three estimated storm fronts is just beginning to calm down after an entire day of gusty winds and torrential rain.
