La Jolla Eats

  When we go on vacation, we usually have 3 main goals: spend time as a family (a special treat with our often-conflicting work schedules), sleep as much as possible and sufficiently eat our way through our respective holiday locale. For this particular vacay, we didn’t end up getting much sleep at all (late-night drive…

3/17: Some pics from the day

San Diego is in the top 3 places I’d love to live. It was a combo of the most relaxing and most stressful day. Liv got sick for the first time ever -she had an entire banana this morning (not the first time)- but it didn’t quite agree with her. I think we’re all a…

Meals and Fitness for the week

Hi from San Diego! We decided to take a little long weekend getaway. I’m so excited to be here with my little fam, surrounded by ocean, seals… oh, and gluten-free cupcakes. What more could a girl wish for? We got into La Jolla at 2:30am- Liv was WIDE AWAKE and cracking up like a little…

Vacay workouts

When I go out of town, my workout strategy varies, depending on what kind of trip it is and how I’m feeling. If the trip is for blog or work-related stuff, it’s pretty much like my normal schedule (whatever normal at the time may be), if it’s a family trip, I fit it in where…

Back from La Jolla

An amazing trip with two of my absolute favorite people <3 When we went to San Diego for our babymoon, we knew we wanted to come back as a family of three and stay in La Jolla. There are so many cute shops and restaurants along the beach (plus the seals!!)- everything is walking distance.…

Home, sweet home

Bell, sweet Bell After lots of driving… ok, so I was just navigating, with eyes closed and mouth open…. it’s good to be back 🙂 I actually managed to stay awake for most of the ride, since I feel bad crashing while the Pilot is driving- he always stays awake to hang out with me…

Hello and goodbye

Morning, friends! It’s our last morning in San Diego…   We’ve had such an amazing time, and as sad as it is to leave, [Please come home with me, seals!] I can’t wait to watch Bella try to shake her tail off her body teach a Zumba class sleep in our own bed (even though…

Not my forte

Another amazing day <3 It was the Pilot’s first time at the San Diego Zoo- we headed down there after bfast. We loved seeing all of the animals – my favorite was watching the meerkats dig for grubs and eat them. There were also a few hilarious photo ops… and the Pilot coerced me to…

Never leave

I think I’d like to stay here a couple more days. Ocean, wildlife, shopping, amazing restaurants and yoga, not much more that a girl could ask for 😉 But I can’t help but wonder, does the novelty wear off? Friends that live in exotic or beachy locales, does it still feel as magical as it…

Holla for La Jolla

You always know how to hook a girl up with amazing local suggestions <3 Besides at least an hour of seal-watching, the day included…

The curry of my life

I’m not sure why I waited 27 years to try Thai food. I’ve heard good things about it, but never got into it for some reason. Well now that I’ve finally crawled out from under my rock, I finally understand what the hype is all about. We were looking for somewhere casual to eat last…
