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 […]
It seems fitting that I would commemorate 500 posts here at ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ from the comforts of a loft overlooking downtown San Diego and the Bay, watching the sun rise and the city come to life minute by minute. This place has always been dear to my heart for nearly twenty years now- largely […]
When looking back on this past month and all the photos, videos and memories I’ve accumulated over the weeks leading up to now- I catch myself smiling at how much time I was lucky enough to spend with friends, family and in beautiful Springtime weather!

While January and February felt like they […]
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone! I’m sitting here with a cup of coffee (not a beer with green food coloring in it- I promise!) and am getting a slow and easy start to a somewhat extended weekend of adventure, live music and time with friends in and around New England. I had mentioned a couple […]
