The second day, we were up before the sun came up to head to Venice! In one word: Italian Disney World. Ok, 3 words. VENICE Since Venice is complete tourism (really, I’ve heard its e m p t y at night) and the touristy part is on an island, it is quite expensive to stay […]
I seriously have no idea where to begin. How do you recap such an amazing trip in just a few posts, with just a few photos (when you have almost 2,000)? How do you put into the words the magic of Italy, of every city we visited? It’s close to impossible, but I’m going to […]
Making: this cous-cous salad. It’s so light for summer, but hefty enough to fill you up. Cooking: not much, but I have been making corn bread for the last week. Yogurt-corn bread to be exact. It’s so easy and so light! Drinking: iced tea. I make a couple cups of strongly spiced hot tea and then add more […]
Hi! Happy Tuesday, friends! How is it already June….and even crazier, how is it my last week of work?! I feel like this year just flew by and with all of my May trips (Israel and the USA), the end came quickly. Despite still having a few days of work left, the days feel like the […]
It’s been quite some time (0kay, a week) since I have been back from the US, but I just haven’t been able to find the motivation to get on here and write. Where are you, motivation?! Part of it is this beautiful weather that Spain is having and I go many days without even cracking […]
That bread up there was sooo good, now currently living in my freezer in Madrid 😉 Saturday was my last full day in Israel, so there was one thing, and only one thing, that I knew I wanted to accomplish. Breakfast. Specifically, Israeli breakfast. I wanted the whole shebang- the 15 little plates of salad […]
Day two was wedding day!!! We got up, got dressed, and almost immediately caught a taxi to the wedding (which got lost on the way and was super angry that he had insisted we take a pre-set fare that we originally thought was too high and ended up being too low…hehehe). We were blown away by […]
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 […]
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 […]
What a whirlwind the last few days have been! Last we left off, Shannon and Teresa were here for about a day and a half before we picked up and headed into greener pastures- Ireland! We had a late afternoon flight, which had us touching down in Dublin at 7 pm before quickly getting on […]
