There’s something about being near water that adds energy to your step. Wandering on the beach, near a raging river or tinkling mountain stream – yeah, those are great. But if you have just a bit of time after work, taking a walk around a residential man-made lake is pretty nice, too. This particular walk […]

Eat Here! Orange Roll and Sushi
Orange Roll & Sushi is honestly the best sushi restaurant in Fullerton! Open 10am – 10pm, Monday – Saturday (note, closed on Sunday!) Super affordable, and absolutely delicious! What I recommend: “Burrito” – $8.95 “Autumn” – $9.95 And the “Firecracker” roll, which I sadly don’t have a pic of…but it’s $8.95 awesomeness!

Bowl-ing
A summer in the southland just isn’t complete without Bowl-ing, Hollywood Bowl-ing, that is! While the orchestra, band, singers or dancers may be the reason tickets are sold, it’s the atmosphere and pre-show picnic people look forward to nearly as much as whichever main event. Bowl dining has become as famous as the bowl itself. […]
A drive back in time
Vintage car shows are always fun…all the bright colors and unique designs…the overwhelming idea of how much money and work goes into renovating each one… Discovered recently that the adorable historic Main Street of Garden Grove is home to a classic car show every Friday night, 4-8pm! If you’d like a “drive back in time,” […]
Surf’s up, dude
Being a native Southern California gal, the beach is part of my soul. It’s not the umbrella and beach towel, slathering up with sunscreen, or oiling to a deep bronze that I love, it’s the beach combing, sunsets, and surfer’s devotion to their sport that I’m fascinated by. A recent jaunt to Surf City USA […]
Bicycling Balloon Girl
Photo expeditions throughout the Los Angeles area are a blast. Searching out the odd, quirky, and unusual is not too difficult, considering I’ve pegged it “the world in a handbasket”. It’s truly a fascinating place! Recently Kat and I were photographing on the Westside, heading homeward, when I chose a random route through Hollywood towards the 101. Traffic was pretty crazy. Well, when isn’t […]
Floral Paradise in OC
I recently stumbled upon this glorious gem of a garden, SLG on PCH in CDM. If those acronyms are throwing you for a loop, I’ll translate: Sherman Library and Gardens on Pacific Coast Highway in Corona del Mar. As described on their website “The Sherman Library & Gardens is a 2.2 acre horticultural retreat. The Gardens […]
Old Towne Orange, a walk back in time
Haven’t been to SoCal’s Old Towne Orange? If you love retro atmosphere and throw-back, you simply must go! Where else can a person experience flocks of wild parrots circling overhead, making a crazy loud racket, a cute young lady in a pink linen dress, pillbox hat, and toting a tiny birdcage as her purse walking past, motorcycles buzzing by heading […]
Party Party, Pink Martini style!
My recent big number birthday was celebrated in style, Pink Martini style, at the Hollywood Bowl, a fantastic venue, by the way. Guest list complete, invitations emailed, planning centered on an all-pink theme. All-pink for two reasons, the first being rather obvious – the name of the Portland, Oregon band playing. In fact, In fact, […]
