Five years. Last week, though (like the bad little blogger I’ve been lately) I only just realized, marked five years for me as a blogger. Reflecting on that time, both upon blogging and the content on which I write, I’ve experienced quite a bit of Life over those years… I fell in love. And out [...]

This morning, I stood on the edge. I stood and looked up, gazing for a while at the pale pink and gray sky; wisps of cloud blocking the spreading sunlight as it filtered through the treetops lining the lake across the street, across the harbor and breakwater. There was a faint coolness in the air [...]

This spring, I’m going all in. I’m gambling my pseudo-anonymous blogging identity on a little get together in the middle of the Nevada desert. I’m rolling the dice on what I lovingly refer to as “Blogger Spring Break.” I’m going to Bloggers in Sin City 2011! I have to admit, my going is a bit out of [...]

Oh, Napa. I think about it every day and dream about it at night: a treat for all the senses. I remember the taste of the wines, cheeses, and oh my god the heirloom tomatoes; the smell of the pines up in Calistoga; the tangible feel of the searing 100 degree heat; the sound of [...]

Last week, my friend Fancy and I went to San Francisco and Wine Country (for those of you who follow me on twitter you’re likely all too aware and I apologize for being an asshole with all the Foursquare check ins!). A girls weekend to Our Lady of the Vine, albeit during the week. We [...]

I got the idea from reading Alice Steinbach’s Without Reservations, which I very much enjoyed and would recommend. So, six weeks ago I sat down with a croissant, a café au lait, and a pen and I wrote. I wanted to capture the moment, the little and the great, the feeling of being there if only [...]

I broke away from the tourist trap photo line to the entrance fee counter and customs, then whisked over to baggage claim where my suitcase was the third onto the conveyer belt, and finally plowed through the flurry of men grabbing at my paperwork and bag in an attempt to gain a tip or a [...]
