I don’t know where to begin when trying to tell you how absolutely incredible this trip was last weekend. Should I begin with talking about the city? Or the food? Or my family? Or meeting all of these long-lost distant relatives? Or should I tell you about the absolutely incredible wedding I went to? So […]
Let me tell you how the pizza empanada was born. I was making pizzas to take to a little futbol party and I realized that with my measly toaster and only one pan, I would be in the kitchen FOREVER (on a beautiful day, nonetheless) trying to use all my dough. So while one pizza baked, […]
Part I and Part II here, if you haven’t read yet. On our final full day in Tenerife, we wanted to go visit some other towns and explore more of the island. We had plans to hit three towns in the north, but only made it to one. But primero, breakfast! And then we got […]
It’s been so long since I’ve done a weekend post! The weekend started Thursday, as it always does! It was nice and low key, first with some furniture shopping (FUN as it sounds) and then I went to Luis’ for my third favorite food in the entire world! Salad de la mama espanola!!! On […]
1 // At restaurants, don’t eat the bread before the meal arrives (or not ALL of it). Bread accompanies any good meal. It soaks up the sauce, is used as a “food-pusher” of sorts, and tastes good. With that being said, here, you very rarely see bread being eaten before the main meal arrives. It […]

I have so many back-logged photos of various meals, and while they are almost all exactly the same, I’m still going to share 🙂 Breakfasts: Lunch and Dinner: Snacks and Merienda:
Last Saturday, I was sitting at home, wasting time on my computer while the day was passing me by. I wasn’t busy and thought “let me text Meghan and see what she’s doing” with a tentative plan to take a nap if she was busy. As a matter of fact, she had just sat down […]
My friend, Annie, and I wanted to try something different for dinner last week. We had Dionisos on our radar since Greek food always looks good (um, hellllooo feta cheese!), and we were in the market for some lighter fare. I had high hopes for Dionisos, since the menu was full of a variety of […]
Los Chuchis is a bar that has been on my radar for some time since it’s right in my hood! I walk past there on my way home from school and it’s always packed with eager customers and the food looks awesome. I have always loved their bright colors and clean appearance compared to the other […]
