Feast number 2

I feel like a marathon eater after this weekend.  Sunday was my second Thanksgiving in Southern CA.  This one was with Kyle’s fam and it was a bit more indulgent than Saturday because it involved an entire day of feasting. To put it bluntly, at no point on Sunday did I not feel full.  The day started with a 7:45 wake-up call because yours-truly wanted to get some form of exercise in prior to gorging my face.  Kyle wasn’t pleased, but wifey gets what wifey wants.  :)  It was raining hard, but Kyle’s parents’ place… Read more >

You are so dumb, you are really dumb, for real

This weekend’s time change was really my savior in surviving Sunday. At 7:30 my alarm went off and I rolled over to see if there was any chance Holly was feeling as anti-exercise as I was.  I can’t decide what surprised me more; the fact that she went to bed in her lady of the night gala make-up, or the fact that she was still gung-ho for bootcamp in said state.  Either way, Susan kicked the bejeezus out of me, Holly, Janetha, and Danica that morning.  Danica’s hubby, Jay, joined us for a hot second before… Read more >

The second day…

…of the Foodbuzz Festival started off with gorgeous San Francisco weather.  And yet, I still lacked the motivation to join my roomies for a 6 AM jog through the neighborhood.  I’ve lived in SF before and I’ve run a half marathon in the city as well, so I am all too aware of the brutal hill situation.  I didn’t exactly sleep in either, though.  After Susan and Janetha returned from their run, the rest of our posse hit the road for the one and only, Tartine Bakery. Let’s get something straight from the get-go, this… Read more >

Let’s get our food on – day 1

This weekend was the 2nd Annual Foodbuzz Festival in San Francisco and since I’m now living on the West Coast again, I was determined to attend.  After a fairly miserable (and thus undocumented) trip from LA to SF, I finally made it to the Bay Area.  Being a super nerdy multi-tasking couple, Kyle and I decided to combine the Foodbuzz weekend with a networking trip for him so we took an alternate route up the state.  It involved more cows and fewer people people with all their teeth…and that’s all I’ll say about that. Ok… Read more >

All the buzz

It’s weird how you can meet people after reading about their lives on a semi-daily basis, and feel like you’re long lost friends… That’s the thing about this blogging community. Food is what we all have in common… But long after our yummy bites have digested, our friendships are what remain. And that’s a beautiful thing.  So is food  🙂 Stay tuned for a more detailed weekend recap.  I can’t even begin to tell you how much fun I had.  Most. Amazing. Roommates. Ever.
