It’s no secret I’m a fan of Rubio’s Coastal Grill. The fast-casual cafe continues to grow as more locations pop up and I love that they keep up with new menu trends. I tend to go for plant-based over meat dishes, and Rubio’s makes that […]
Summer 2021 is nearly upon us. Slowly but surely, things seem to be going more back to “normal.” Many are returning to air travel, but I plan to hold off a bit longer. That’s not a huge problem for me given I love the open […]
Despite this year has been anything but normal, one thing is for sure: I still love to eat. Last summer found me going up California’s Central Coast to San Mateo County. While plans were in store to return this month, Covid decided to take care […]
Although summer has officially arrived, the season may look a bit different for each of us this year. Am I right? Usually, summertime finds me hopping airplanes, planning adventures, and a road trip or two. Given where we are still in the world, I’ve decided […]
As someone drawn to the sea, it’s funny I’ve felt Arizona is “so far” from home. After spending a weekend in Yuma, just about five hours from Los Angeles, I was struck that I go just the same distance when I head up the California […]

Have I mentioned how much I love California’s Cambria? I’m pretty sure I have but I’ll gladly say it again. Having spent some years living along the Central Coast in spots like Solvang and Lompoc, Cambria was, surprisingly, never much on my radar. Since growing […]
Just a stone’s throw from San Francisco lays the beautiful San Mateo County. While known as being home to the likes of Facebook and Google, San Mateo County offers visitors the chance to experience wine tasting, hiking, beach time and of course, incredible cuisine. I’ve […]
