Raise your hand if you’ve ever had sake. While I’ve been a fan for awhile, I’d only enjoyed it with sushi. Little did I know that the Japanese rice wine is extremely versatile, and making it is more similar to fermenting beer than stomping grapes […]
Welcome to the return of Wine Women Wednesday. This was one of the highlights and milestones for Along Comes Mary when this series launched a few months ago. With 2019 here, I’m so excited to bring you more interviews with kick ass women killing it […]
There’s no denying the array of food options in San Diego County. One of the most popular spots to get your grub on is Carlsbad. Filled with cafes, wine bars and fine restaurants, I was thrilled to head down recently and take the Carlsbad Food […]
It’s no secret I love live theatre. While I’ve attended countless plays and musicals, this week I’ll have the pleasure of seeing Lee Blessing’s A Walk in the Woods. Yet, with a twist. Instead of a traditional stage production, LA Theatre Works is presetting the […]
It’s nearly time for the most controversial holiday, Valentine’s Day. Whether you’re team love it or team greeting card gimmick (I admit, I’m a sucker and enjoy the day), it’s a great excuse to treat yourself and those you love. If getting away for Valentine’s […]
