This trip to the UK was supposed to be a big family trip to visit relatives and dig into some of our family roots. My sisters and I are first generation Americans. While we don’t have dual citizenship, we do have…
Hello My Old Heart {Deep Thoughts on a Deep Year}
As the end of the, not only year, but decade is here, I have some thoughts on 2019. While overall it was a pretty good year, as is usually the case, it involved high highs and low lows. I completed…
Travel: Riviera Maya, Mexico
Mexico has never been high on my list of places I’ve wanted to travel. I have lots of friends who go and each time I’ve been invited I’ve politely declined. I never thought I would feel super safe in Mexico,…
Travel: Once Upon a Time in Los Angeles
I’ve had a love affair with Los Angeles since I was 9 years old. I could probably write 16 blog posts and still not scratch the surface as to why I love it so much. Or should I say, used…
Are We There Yet? or The Summer Road Trip
Last week, I posted about my friend Jonathan and his modern road trip. But what about the nostalgic road trip? The one you took as a kid. The road trip where you didn’t need to wear a seatbelt, couldn’t use…

Travel: Nashville, Tennessee {Part 2 or Bar Hopping}
As I was writing this post on Nashville, it was getting really long, so I decided two posts were appropriate and since we drank at a lot of places, where we drank is getting its own space. Nashville has a…
Travel: Nashville, Tennessee {Part 1}
Here’s the thing about Nashville – you don’t need to like country music to appreciate it. Nashville has been on my “To Visit” list for a long time. I have been all over the state of Tennessee, but never to…
Travel: San Diego, California
San Diego came about when I was due for a weekend away, my friend Sara in Ohio needed to visit her uncle in La Jolla, and as a bonus we could visit her other friend, Angela, on Coronado Island. Double…
A Meeting with John Holmes or Boogie Nights at The Breakers
While we were on our mom’s weekend in West Palm Beach, we were having dinner at The Seafood Bar at The Breakers. We were sitting at a table in the bar area, so the tables were fairly close to each…
