My BFF Katie and I were catching up over the phone a couple of weeks ago. I was still excited about my latest Apple purchase (my iPad). The talk turned to iPhone apps and she assumed that I already had the Starbuck Mobile App (which she was surprised to hear that I didn’t). She explained … Continue reading »

COMING SOON | Blog Posts Galore!
I’ve been absent from blogging for a few weeks. My culinary adventures have kicked into overdrive however, sitting down to actually write a review has been the most challenging. And, I made a major professional decision–leaving my job of twelve and half years as Director of Human Resources for Panavision to embark on … Continue reading »

INSPIRED BY HEIRLOOM TOMATOES
My friend and co-worker YeeGee from my company’s New York office sent, via one of my colleagues in Woodland Hills, tomatoes home grown from her garden via UPS. I couldn’t believe that these tomatoes survived the long journey and didn’t become tomato sauce en route! There were a variety of tomatoes and between the staff … Continue reading »

I’m beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel! I haven’t stayed up this late since last year while on vacation. I brought the DVD set to one of my K-dramas (Winter Sonata) and I got so hooked that I had to finished the remaining four episodes. I had to get up … Continue reading »
GUILTY PLEASURE: Haagen-Dazs Five
I have this weakness for ice cream. And my favorite flavor is coffee. Out of all the coffee ice creams I’ve tried, Haagen-Dazs’ Five Coffee Ice Cream is the best in my book. Made with only five ingredients, Haagen-Dazs’ version is incredibly creamy, smooth and full of sweet coffee flavor. I usually prepare a bowl … Continue reading »
IT’S 3:00 A.M.!
This is post #20. Which is so misleading. The rules state 24 posts in 24 hours starting at 8:00 a.m. August 17 and ending at 8:00 a.m. August 18. But really, if our LAST post has to be published at 8:00 a.m., those of us still plugging away in the wee hours of the morning … Continue reading »
FOOD IN THE MOVIES
Food in the movies? These are a just a few of my favorite movies (and one Korean drama) where food and relationships are a part of the focal point of the story. Other movies include “My Best Friend’s Wedding“, “Under The Tuscan Sun” and “Bambina” (Japanese drama). Continue reading »
