When was the last time you sat down in a Pizza Hut restaurant? You can throw a rock and hit one of the numerous carry out and delivery hotspots throughout the country but you’ll have to look harder to find full-fledged Pizza Hut restaurants. Head to Coronado Avenue in Imperial Beach. This was same spot... Continue Reading →
It comes as no surprise to me that poke shops are seemingly everywhere. Poke has replaced cupcakes, frozen yogurt and juice bars as today’s on trend foods but with so many poke shops, just how many of them of using quality fish? In the back of my mind, I’m imagining many shops head out to... Continue Reading →
I can count the number of times I’ve eaten at Chipotle and a standout item for me is their cilantro-lime rice. Make it at home and the fragrant rice can be the foundation for any meal. I like heating up canned black beans, adding spicy pico de gallo and avocado for a complete, meat-free meal.... Continue Reading →
Paul’s recent doctor’s appointment was a milestone. The big 5-0. Along getting his vitals in check and blood test for a possible colonoscopy (hey now), Paul was also told to up his antioxidants meaning certain vitamins to his diet and foods as well. I clung onto one word he mentioned: blueberries. Since blueberries are starting... Continue Reading →

My invitation came from Absolut Elyx, a luxury brand vodka. The trip included a flight to Copenhagen, Denmark and car ride to Sweden where the... Continue Reading →
I’m running out of fast-food franchises that serve fish sandwiches, at least at a local level. A few years ago KFC touted a blink-and-you-missed-it “lent-seasonal” fish sandwich, and Chick-Fil-A offers a fish sandwich but not in this market. And burger joints Five Guys, Smashburger, Little Big Burger and Shake Shack— no dice. Floundering, I... Continue Reading →
Confession: I don’t think I really liked ube until my uncle brought me a tub back from the Philippines. Ube donuts and various other ube-laden pastries were either too sweet for me or the texture was too grainy. So upon receiving a jar my first inclination was to immediately send it to my sister-in-law in... Continue Reading →
The problems with my back began a little after my mom died. I recall walking Doctor in the rain and as I stepped onto a wet metal grate, my foot slipped and my back went out. I could’t stand upright without pain and, trying to be as cost conscious I could be, found a nearby... Continue Reading →
It’s been a while hasn’t it but I’m still here. Since Doctor’s big escape from the Rover sitter last October and our big reunion, I’ve been keeping to myself, microblogging over on Instagram and enjoying the love of my sweet puppy (who is also now on IG) and husband. There is traveling to make up... Continue Reading →
