You aren’t seeing things, I’ve emerged from my cave to make these delicious muffins. Strawberries are my favorite fruit and I hope that the baby will like them too! It did feel great to bake again for the first time in 6 weeks. I’m not experiencing the aches & pains of the third trimester yet thankfully so I want to

Well, the time has come for me to “rant n rave” about retail since not much is going on with me in the foodie scene at the moment. Thankfully for this pregnancy, I haven’t gotten that big & only started showing recently. I started off wearing the BeBand to hold up my pre pregnancy jeans (still do) but I needed

I’ll admit it right now, I hadn’t heard about the Redondo Beach Kite Festival until last week. I have the Daily Breeze to thank for that. It was such a great way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon at the Redondo Beach Pier. It was practically shoulder to shoulder at the pier, just an hour into the event. There was

Yes, look who’s back? Yes, this is a late submission, but it’s still Monday! I’ll be honest, these weren’t the easiest muffins to prepare. I always have a hard time with muffins that have special fillings. This one ended up erupting all over my oven. So yes, I have a jelly filled oven right now. Some of the jelly did

When I first found out I was pregnant, I thought that the rules would be easy: don’t drink, don’t do drugs, don’t smoke. Done. Oh if only. There are SO many restrictions that it takes me forever to order these days. I’m seriously analyzing every single ingredient listed with each dish to make sure it’s safe for me to eat.

I finally get to write this review. It started when I set out to review Pasta Kitchen. To my dismay, I saw a sign on the door that said they were closing. So for the last year, I’d see a sign that a new Thai restaurant was opening. It wasn’t until late last year that it finally happened. Walking in,

You’ve probably noticed that I haven’t been blogging as frequently. Well, the reason for that is I’m expecting a little bundle in July. With that bundle comes a restrictive diet (sushi, deli meat, coffee, steak cooked less than well done? forget about it!) & more hours at work. I’ll still be posting about events in the beach cities, a Muffin
