This trip, I’ve kept the itinerary to a minimum – my hostess has a broken foot and I’m content to relax and go with the flow of being on vacation. We had the party to keep us busy the first day and a tasting event to attend on Saturday night (more in my next post),Continue reading “LA in Nibbles and Bites”

A Tale of Two Sundays
Last weekend began my spring season of local wandering.

It’sContinue reading “Mountain Time, part 2”

I arrived in Salt Lake City today for a family ski vacation. a storm started coming through just as we arrived. the drive up to Deer Valley through Park City was harrowing, but beautiful.

Since we are staying in the most adorable cottage with a lovely back deck, we optedContinue reading “Lobster Roll”
