(I have loved Stonefire Grill for several years now and was so excited when they invited me out to experience their newest location in Torrance. Alas, I could not make it to the South Bay in time so I had our awesome contributor, Melanie, go […]
While many California wine destinations (and just cool California towns in general) are on my radar. I admit, Livermore Valley was not a spot I knew much about nor was it much on my mind until last year. I also thought Livermore was in Sacramento […]
*Sponsored Post My first California road trip of 2018 is in the books. A few weeks back I had the chance to run up to San Luis Obispo County for a couple of days. Granted, this was in the middle of the dreadful and devastating […]
I’ve been fortunate to have several incredible moments for Along Comes Mary. From trips and events, to meeting incredible wine makers and chefs. One of those highlights was attending the evening with Bob’s Burgers at the PaleyFest last year. Not only am I a huge […]
On our weekend getaway to Carmel last month, we had such a gorgeous Saturday morning walking along the beach and hitting some trails. When we got back to town, we were ready for some serious grub. Over the summer when we were in town, Carrie […]

Well, I finally did it. After several amazing trips to Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, we at last drove the world-famous 17 Mile Drive on our holiday trip with the dogs. Beautiful and tranquil, there are indeed several spots in the area with just as gorgeous views and […]
Something that I will always remember about 2017 (aside from getting married–that was sort of a big deal) are the phenomenal concerts I was fortunate enough to attend. Literally some of the most fantastic concerts I have seen yet happened this year. Just for fun, […]
One of Los Angeles’ many budding neighborhoods boasting with artistic flare and nightlife action is none other than North Hollywood’s NoHo Arts District. Cruise down Lankershim or Magnolia and at your finger tips are an array of restaurants, bars and fun “hole in the wall” […]
