With the Super Bowl less than a week away, it's time to start prepping for your game-day party — especially now that we know which teams will be playing for the win. If you're a 49ers fan — which, as San Franciscans, we hope you are! — then you might want to listen up! While you can prep for your tailgating soiree with decorations like red-and-gold utensils, there's plenty of 49ers kitchen gear (think cheese boards and wine stoppers) to choose from. Here, we've put together all the items you need to embrace the football festivities.

To really get a feel of a new place you're traveling to, we believe you have to run up and down its hills, bike down its roads, and Downward Dog where the locals do.

We're excited to be launching a new travel series, Work Out Like a Local, where our editors share their fitness picks for cities across the country; and what better place to start than San Francisco, where Sugar HQ is located? The next time you're in town, get out of that stuffy hotel gym and try one of our fitness faves. Maybe we'll see you there!

If you left your heart in San Francisco, it might have had something to do with the Golden Gate Bridge. The iconic span celebrates its 75th anniversary this weekend. Over the years, people from across the world have visited the bridge often sapping shots to capture the magic mix of man-made and natural beauty.

With its grainy and glowing filters, Instagram can make anyone feel nostalgic. Pair that with lovers at the Golden Gate Bridge and you have a recipe for a romantic photo, as you'll see in this slideshow. This weekend, San Francisco will mark the bridge's birthday with various parties and events. To get in on the festivities from wherever you are, take a look at these photos from Instagram showing love at the Golden Gate Bridge.

Along with the picnicking and the grilling that goes along with most Memorial Day weekends, this coming weekend, residents of San Francisco will be celebrating something else: the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Whether or not you're near the City by the Bay this long weekend, pay homage to the world's most photographed bridge in the world. Celebrate the iconic dishes of the food lover's paradise known as San Francisco, when you keep clicking.

Spring is in the air, so let's keep that air smelling fresh, shall we? If you aren't able to use public transportation for your daily commute, and biking is out of the question, these electric, hybrid, and small cars are able to step in when all other earth-friendly options are exhausted. We love them all for various reasons, but mostly it's because they make us feel like we're giving mother earth a little hug every day they're on the road.

Sometimes inspiration for the next design project or blog post can be found right outside the door. So we at CasaSugar decided to challenge ourselves by kicking off a new recurring feature that focuses on just that.

Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook pages to see which San Francisco neighborhood we'll hit up next, or follow us on Instagram to check out all of our field-trip finds under the hashtag #designfieldtrip.
