My mom called me awhile ago and told me she has some random food items that she thought I might like (her fiancé ordered a bunch of food online and I guess this came with it). Not going to lie, when she said “organic raw pecan butter” I got really excited, because hello, that stuff [...]

January Date Night at Zocalo Grill
I wanted to try one new restaurant a month, and after trying twice, we finally got out last Friday night and visited Zocalo Grill, which is in Old Town San Diego. Now, Old Town is pretty touristy and the Mexican food is pretty sub-par at most places in the area, but I’d heard really good [...]
Representing San Diego Left and Right
I freely admit that I am a lucky duck to live in San Diego. It’s no fault of my own really; my parents decided that San Diego was just nicer than Brooklyn so they moved here before I was born (not that I’d be upset to live in NYC, because I have a ridiculous obsession [...]
Not the New Rules of Blondie Baking
As I mentioned, I made blondies for the terribly sad and depressing and I don’t want to talk about it football game on Sunday. And as anything with a stick of butter and a cup of brown sugar would be, they were really, really good. They have the texture of a brownie with the taste [...]
Detox Recap and Another Newman’s Review

I’ve seen these on blogs and the Hungry Girl emails (that I [...]
Feeling the Pride Today
Good morning (or afternoon)! I am in a really good mood right now. Keep on reading to learn why…
Like other bloggers, I received a few loaves of bread from Nature’s Pride to sample and review. Mitch is VERY brand-loyal, so we’re big Oroweat purchasers around here and I was interested in trying out a different [...]
Soup and Dessert (and maybe Carne Asada)
A few days ago, we got the Trader Joe’s Fearless Flyer in the mail. I love getting their little ad-newspaper describing new (and classic) TJ products. I always read about something that I want to try next time I’m there (score one for the ad writers and marketing pros, I guess). This time, I saw [...]
