Hummus is one of those must-have things that is always in my refrigerator and I put it on just about… everything. Vegetables, rice cakes, meat, rice, my spoon. It’s quick, filling, and so good. And while it’s not crazy expensive here in Spain, it can be quite pricey in the United States. Even here, it’s […]

The Most Filling Breakfast
Hello hello! Happy Tuesday! Today I am sharing my standby breakfast recipe that is my day-to-day go-to. It’s simple (ready in under 5 minutes!), cozy, comforting, tasty AND most importantly, it’s filling! Over the years, I have experimented with fancy breakfasts (it’s my favorite meal of the day!) from eggs, to bagels, to egg sandwiches, […]
Lighter Sesame-Orange Chicken
I love trying new recipes and making something a little extra “special” on Friday nights. Something a little better than my usual kale with tuna and hot sauce concoction. This weekend, I was in the mood for Asian flavors- soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame, and did a quick search for Sesame-Garlic chicken. The results were […]

Restaurants in Madrid: El Buo
For some incredible tortilla espanola, drinks, raciones (plates to share)- all at amazing price- go to El Buo in La Latina! It’s part of a restaurant group that owns a number of similar restaurants, but for large slices of tortilla, you’ll want to head to El Buo and for an entire tortilla to share among […]
A Little Bit of Lately.
I feel like I have been writing so many “topic” posts, that I haven’t done any “life” posts in quite some time. A.k.a…pictures that are taking up space on my iPhone…most of which is food. First up, Luis and I had this really delicious meal at Petit Apertit. It was our second (my second, […]
A Day in Vevey and Montreux, Switzerland
This weekend was so great! I went to Switzerland again #casual. I left Thursday night after running around all day. Bought myself a new pair of jeans that are like skin, nice and tight 🙂 Then I was off to the airport for a half empty evening flight to Geneva! Friday was quite productive. I […]
Five Days in Poland: Final Morning in Krakow.
We are in the home stretch! I took over 650 photos in Poland, so narrowing them down to three posts, while also saying everything that I want to say (especially about Auschwitz) has proved to be so much more time-consuming than I expected! But I am starting to see the light at the end of […]
