I love eating tri-tip. It cooks well, super flavorful and is delicious by itself or in sandwiches. When I’m lazy, I’ll get the preseasoned stuff and just roast it and slice it up for a quick dinner. One of my favorite pre-seasoned tri-tip comes from Schaub’s meats in Palo Alto. It’s called a “Fred’s Steak” […]

Yay!! I don’t need to cook tonight… since we’re hitting up SF again after work to indulge our fat butts. After much analysis, Groomsman Ben and I decided to hit up another restaurant up in SF for one last hurrah with DAT before it ends. I think that’ll tide us over for the next 6 […]

Sorry… that’s a pretty sickening sappy title of this post. And I guess as newlyweds I can semi sort of get a pass. Before I lose all of my readers (yes… all 3 of you!) I should quickly explain. When I’m too damn lazy to cook dinner, he generously offers to take me out to […]

Tahiti possibly? 😀 2) Cook more Strangely enough, I’ve taken more ownership of the […]

Seattle’s known for being the birthplace of coffee. The little push pin on my traveling map now targets Vancouver. And I associate it for birthing this whole new food revolution starting with… *drumroll […]

I blame our groomsman Ben for getting fat. I got to work yesterday and got a message from asking if Sam and I would be interested in joining him and another friend eating at Fringale for Dine About Town. Um… YES!!! So we coordinated Caltraining plans and after work, the three boys and I made […]

We had an unsually strange winter this year. November was still warm and then as soon as Thanksgiving hit, a cold spell came across California. It was 70 degrees one week and then 40 the next. It was constantly raining and I was starting to really worry about my ocean bluff top wedding in December […]

Just a quick shot I dug up in the archives of my computer. This was taken when I got broadsided by a nutty driver here in Palo Alto and she insisted on doing everything in cash under the table. I ended up with a hardtop Volvo convertible. Coincidentally Sam’s close friend Ink and Ang announced […]
