Austin Food Trailers
Austin Food Trailers

I’ve got to say: I love Austin. I have been pleasantly surprised by the awesome weather, welcoming people, beautiful landscape and…the food trailers. Though Austin does a lot of things cool and weird, my favorite is its food trailers and carts sprinkled throughout the city.  You wouldn’t believe some of the gourmet, far-out or even [...]

A Day in Julian

Last Saturday, Dustin, Jordan and I made a short day trip to Julian, California. Julian is an old, small gold-mining town high in the mountains outside of San Diego.

Weekend Favorites - The Beginning

Hey there! I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite posts from around the food blog world over the past week. I got the idea from Jen’s “Friday Favorites” at My Kitchen Addiction.

SPC Review: Del Sur Farmers Market

Dustin, Jordan and I decided to check out our local Farmers Market in 4S Ranch this week. We had high hopes it would be the Farmers Market we’ve been looking for. No, this isn’t an epic quest for the Farmers Market, but Dustin and I are really a little snobbish picky when it comes to [...]
