Tweet I’m beyond excited. The new Whole Foods in Del Mar opens on Wednesday, Feb. 27. It will be the closest Whole Foods to my house. Trust me, I’ve mapped the miles. Whole Foods is my go-to grocery store for local produce as well as my favorite bakery, especially for dye-free, all natural birthday cake for [...]
Tweet I’m convinced my 8-year-old son has a future in comedy. He’s a complete goofball and loves to make people laugh. Whether it be knock-knock jokes, doing armpit farts or making silly noises, he’s always trying to come up with ways to get others to laugh. I knew San Diego offered theater classes for kids, [...]
Tweet I hate to rub it in but this is definitely the time of year I get to reap the rewards of the sunshine tax. Living in San Diego isn’t cheap (well, maybe it is relative to living in Hawaii – my original home), but compared to many other cities in the US it’s still [...]
Tweet The Living Coast Discovery Center (formerly known as the Chula Vista Nature Centers) is one of San Diego’s best kept secrets. Before I visited last weekend, I had no idea this little gem even existed. It’s a little smaller inside compared to other aquariums, but I loved that it was so much more diverse [...]
Tweet This weekend I had a chance to attend a cooking demonstration at Macy’s Home Store in Mission Valley with chef Nancy Silverton, founder of La Brea Bakery and co-owner of Osteria Mozza, Pizzeria Mozza and MOzza2G0 in Los Angeles. I dined at Pizzeria Mozza two years ago with one of my dearest friends and [...]

Chef Silverton, co-owner of Osteria Mozza, Pizzeria Mozza and MOzza2G0 in Los Angeles, will share her favorite recipes to help you start the new year right. I can [...]
Tweet I cannot believe I’ve lived in San Diego for nearly 14 years and have never made it out to The San Diego REPertory Theatre. I’ve been to theatrical productions in San Diego – from musicals to drama to comedy and improv, yet I never really knew about San Diego REP. Located in downtown San [...]
Tweet Southern California has a new adventure for thrill-seekers: ziplining. And I’m not talking about ziplining in an indoor gym or at a local park. This is 10 zip lines from 200 to 1,500 feet long and up to 300 feet in the air in the San Gabriel Mountains. If you can’t fathom 1,500 feet [...]
Tweet I am SO excited. I’ve been invited by Cloud 9 Living to go ziplining – one of the many experience gifts they offer. Ziplining has been on my bucket list for a long time, so I’m thrilled I have the chance to finally do it. I’ll be writing about my experience later this month. I [...]
Tweet I can’t believe it’s almost the end of October. Time has been flying by. It’s finally cooling down in San Diego, which makes me sad because I love the summers. But one silver lining is apple picking in the orchards in Julian, a quaint town about 45 minutes east of San Diego. We go [...]
