Earlier on Twitter, I asked, “Do you ever get miffed when you don’t see your blog on someone else’s blog list? Like upset or just think “they probably forgot” ?”

I’ll admit this happened to me this morning, and I’m not sure if I reconciled it yet, as I’m pretty certain I used to [...]

Legendary concerts are often few and far between. Well, that is unless you’re Cher or Garth Brooks, who hook you into seeing their “last concert ever ever EVER!” and then decide to take up residency in Vegas. (No, I’m not bitter about being tricked at all… at [...]

When I watch the Food Network, I’m always taking note of restaurants to add to the “must eat here once during my lifetime” list. Sure, some of the places featured may be hit or miss, but some shows simply drive you to want to find out for yourself. My newest favorite show, however, [...]

Have I told you how much I adore Ginger Elizabeth and her precious chocolate shop here in town? Oh I have? Forgive me, but I love love love her and everything she sells. (Hey foodies, David Lebovitz loves her too!) Plus, anyone that uses their first and middle name as their [...]

Today, I’m saying goodbye to one of my closest material friends: my yellow car. Since the fall of 2001, she’s been with me through many adventures, but that journey ends when she meets the fate of the dreaded “trade-in” at the car lot today. She was the sorority taxi in college, the “Hey, I’m driving [...]

Chocolate covered bacon is all the rage at the California State Fair this year. And Mr. M definitely liked his Mo’s Bacon Chocolate bar that I bought him the other day… despite the fact that I had to deal with his [...]
