Hey, everyone! Martha Stewart came to San Francisco last week! And it turns out she's a huge fan of our cute little town.

The Holy Mother of Home Decor, visiting for a conference and to speak at the prestigious Castilleja School, stopped into a handful of stores and blogged about her journey. (Spoiler alert: she spent a lot of time in Pac Heights and the Ferry Building, but barely grazed the tip of the Mission.)

She fawned over our Restoration Hardware outpost ("just like a fancyhome!"), clucked her tongue at the suggestive local farms ("Dirty Girl Produce -- funny name"), and nearly made off with a bandit's worth of onions ("the shallots were so beautiful I had to restrain myself.") All in all, a successful visit.

Take a look at M. Diddy's tour de SF below, and see more photos on The Martha Blog:
