Not-So-Local-Loves: Pokez

The very first time I came to San Diego was in the Summer of 2005. I had been invited by a couple of friends of mine to stop by an outdoor music festival and spend an extended weekend being given a tour of all the cooler, “hidden gems” in and around their city- and I […]

Salty-Haired and Sun-Kissed…

Despite the fact that “May Gray” was in full effect shortly after my arrival in San Diego last week, I didn’t let it stop me from spending the majority of my stay outdoors in places like the park and the beach. Outdoor dining (and drinking) was the way to go- and after using an abundance […]

A Tale of Food Trucks and Frozen Drinks…

Well hello there, May! How good of you to finally arrive- although it looks like you brought a significant amount of rainfall with you.

While January and February felt like they […]

March Madness…

Although I’ve got my usual “end of the month wrap-up” posts lined up a little later on this week, including sharing some of my favorite things/products and highlights from these past few weeks- it’s worth mentioning (again) that I can’t believe the month is nearly over! Spring is struggling to break free of Winter’s icy […]

Local Loves: Fitzwilly’s

And I’m back! While I had wanted to share this post a couple of days ago on one of my regularly scheduled “Blogging Days,” I was admittedly a little exhausted, as Troy’s flight back to California left in the wee hours of Wednesday morning and I had to bring him to the airport well before […]
