It’s Time For Tea

I don’t know if you know this about me, but I love tea. I’ll take a good Irish Breakfast tea any day.  The sweeter, the blacker and the creamier it is, the more I like it. I think half the fun of my trip to Ireland was drinking entire pots of tea throughout the day.  Yes, [...]

A Birthday Gift for My Entreprenurial Friends

Braised Pork Ragu with Pappardelle

Last week I stumbled across this beyond awesome (and super simple) recipe thanks to a friend’s Facebook post.  It was so good, I thought I needed to share it here as well. This was beyond simple to make in the crockpot (I think I did about 2.5 hours on high and about 2 hours on [...]

How to change the world. Ten (not so) easy steps.

I read this piece by Heather Plett and over at Sophia Leadership and it touched me.  Enough so,  I thought I’d share it with you. In honour of the courageous people in Egypt, who are putting themselves at great personal risk to impact change, I’ve been thinking about what it takes to change the [...]

Hanging Out at the Game With the Gang From Carls Jr.

I haven’t been to a hockey game in a long, long, long time – no really, last game I went to, I was still living in Atlanta.  So when I was asked if I wanted to watch the game from the Carl’s Jr suite this past Saturday night, you just know I had to say [...]

Rub a Dub Nothing Beats Soaking in a Tub

Most of my friends know of my love of soaking in a bathtub.  Heck, I’m sure I’ve mentioned it here that when I vacation, one of the things I look forward to is a good soak. You see, in our apartment, we have a pretty dinky (and enclosed) tub.  In my places in NM I had [...]

Spending Time with Friends in Laguna

Some of my good friends from Albuquerque were in SoCal this week. I haven’t seen them in a couple of weeks…oops, make that YEARS…so it was great to have a sleepover. It was one of those situations where it was hard to even stop talking long enough to sleep. I love having the chance [...]

LA Mommy Bloggers Sure Can Cook

Or would that be they sure can no-cook? Today at my nearby Pavillions grocery store, local Mommy Bloggers (just writing that makes me cringe a little, but hey, it’s a niche, and I can respect that) got together for a no-cook cook-off.  Basically,  they had ten minute to shop, $25 to spend on groceries and then [...]
