Some photos from San Diego

On My way to San Diego!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!


a Pizza at pizzeria Luigi's. Let me tell ya...this pizza was the BOMB!! Can't you tell by just looking at it? I ate some of the best food ever in San Diego....pizza, I had my first fish taco. OMG!!!!!! That was so delicious!!! Dinner with Mary and Q and her crab cakes and mahi mahi cooked on the grill, homemade bread pudding with fresh whipped cream. That woman can throw down, ok? I had a carne asada burrito at Benny's that was HUGE..couldn't eat the whole thing. In n Out Burger..YUM. Homemade lasagna and garlic bread and cannoli...TO DIE FOR. the sauce was homemade and took 3 days to make. BEST FOOD EVER!!!


Me with my friends from high school, John and Lisa. We met at a bar in Temecula, CA. and had a great night. so much fun!!


On our way to Palm Springs...


Gaslamp District of San Diego. Everything was so beautiful and there was so much history. I loved all the little cafes along the street, so many little shops. Wonderful place to be.


Gaslamp District


My last day in San Diego, I had to go to the beach, of course. These are my Reef flip flops. They are so so comfortable and have a built in bottle opener on the bottom! comes in handy, right? ;) I had to "oceanize" them to make them authentic. Oh how I miss this water and this beach.

I was looking for some avocado on that pizza! and fish tacos are the best!!! they're easy to make at home too, I'll send you my recipe.

Glad to know you had so much fun. It was such an honor to meet you finally after all these years of following you on the blog. I really can't wait for you to make another visit because there is so much more to see and do, we barely scratched the surface!!

LOVE the header photo....you are getting some travelling done. Makes me feel happy whenever I do it!

Never tried a fish burrito and honestly it sounds gross, but could be excellent....one day.

Nothing like the beach is there.
