Last month to celebrate the official launch of Terminal 2 in SFO, Virgin Galactic’s spaceship flew in along with Sir Richard for the festivities. Needless to say, our office was excited and I brought in my dSLR to snap some good shots. Sam and I finally got the chance to fly out of the new […]

I have a bad craving for Shipley Do-Nuts… Unfortunately they’re nowhere to be found here in California. The craving’s almost bad enough for me to jump on a Virgin America plane and head off to Dallas so I could get a few donuts… And some good ol’ Texan BBQ. I blame my husband for converting […]

After a long break from cooking, I got bit by the bug again and I have a pork shoulder brining to roast into pulled pork, cajun inspired coleslaw soaking in the fridge and meyer lemon bars baking. I was good and took pics of the lemon bars so that recipe should be up soon. I […]
