Birthday Greetings!!
When we adopted Montague, we didn’t know his exact birthday, so we gave him mine. So, Happy Birthday to me and Montague.

Life is too short to be standing still! Follow me as I visit as many places as I can... food, shopping, destinations!! If that destination includes an Anaheim Ducks hockey game? Well, heck, that's even better.

New York City: Independence (#independenceNYC) previews this weekend
Teryn Gray is from Southern California, and moved to New York City to become an actress. I’ve known this magnificent young lady for over 10 years, when she sat next to me at Anaheim Ducks games, back when she would tell me the hottest YA books to read. She […]
Touring LA’s Koreatown with Avital Tours #avitaltours
I was invited to attend a progressive food tour of Koreatown by Avital Tours. It’s a 3 hour, 4-course progressive prix-fixe dining experience, where you visit 4 restaurants and receive two appetizers, one entree, and one dessert, with a sprinkling of culinary history and stories in between. Unfortunately, I was not […]

On Thursday, March 1st, Crepes Bonaparte had their grand opening celebration. From 5:00 to 9:00 pm, they were giving away a free Nutella crepe to anyone who stopped by. Free crepe! Of course I’ll stop by… as did a whole bunch of other fans of this food truck. […]

Las Vegas: Bellagio, Celebrating Year of the Dog #LunarNewYear
After the Golden Knights game, Karen and I cut through the Monte Carlo hotel and took the free tram/monorail to the Bellagio, which was also the final stop. The station is located in the back part of the hotel, which eventually leads you to the conservatory and the […]
Las Vegas: Anaheim Ducks vs Vegas Golden Knights (#ANAvsVGN)
My bucket list is to visit every NHL arena, and after checking off T-Mobile, I only have 3 arenas left to go… so when I say this a 5 star venue, it’s because I have been to many places to compare. First, don’t drive or even take an uber unless […]
Las Vegas: Wahlburgers
Wahlburgers is a Boston burger restaurant owned by chef Paul Wahlberg in partnership with two of his celebrity brothers Donnie and Mark. There are 14 locations, but only 1 in Nevada… and this one is located in front of the Bally’s hotel and casino, in the shops and restaurants area. […]
Las Vegas: Cosmopolitan
So it’s been 2 months, and that means it’s time for another Vegas visit. Now that the casinos have started charging for parking, I try to stay at a Caesar’s Entertainment property. However, the Cosmopolitan is still my favorite hotel/ casino on the Las Vegas Strip, and recently […]
Rancho Santa Margarita (RSM): Sajj Mediterranean
There’s a new Mediterranean restaurant called SAJJ in Ranch Santa Margarita (or RSM to the locals). They call it line style ordering… but you will relate more if I call it Chipotle or Subway style ordering. You pick your base, whether its a bowl, wrap or pita. Then you […]

GRAND OPENING MARCH 21! Eddie World will be one of my new pit stops as I travel from So Cal to Vegas. it’s located in Yermo, off Calico (right before the CA Food/Agricuture Inspection station) There’s a huge gas station with competitive prices ($3.35 for regular gas as […]
Victorville, CA: Cracker Barrel
It’s a Cracker Barrel. You come here for the inexpensive, brown or yellow food. There’s not a whole lot of food that’s considered fresh and healthy. Even their green beans are cooked with bacon, and limp like a can. The good part is I don’t have to drive […]
Laguna Hills : Hai Master Kitchen (Chinese food)
Happy Chinese New Year!! My mom wanted to get the family together for the Year of the Dog, and my sister recommended a different place about 10 minutes away. Unfortunately, that place was closed for the New Year, so I yelped this place. It’s located in a little […]
Fullerton: Pie Dog
Pie Dog is probably Stephen and my favorite burger place. I like this place for their burgers made with 1/2 rib eye, 1/2 sirloin patties. I had the plain ol’ GI Joe, while Stephen had the My Cousin Vinnie, a burger with marinara and sausage. Stephen likes their […]
Farewell, Buffalo—> Back to SoCal
Living in the West Coast, I don’t get to experience the true 4 seasons unless I travel to other parts of the country. I got to experience a week of winter and snow, and let’s just say that my thin blood was looking forward to going back to […]
Buffalo: KeyBank Center vs Sabres
The Ducks lost the last 2 games played in Toronto and Montreal. We were hoping that this last game of the road trip would turn out better. The KeyBank Center is located down the street from our hotel, and was within the “free zone” of the local metro […]
Buffalo, NY: Ted’s Hot Dogs (@TedsHotDogs)
When in Buffalo, you should try the famous “Buffalo” wings at the famous Anchor Bar, right? We normally would, but with the weather outside being snowy (and freezing) plus we had a game in a few hours, we decided to try the “next” thing Buffalo was known for… hot […]
