The word seaside alone, awakens a sense of relaxation and conjures up thoughts of excitement, pleasure and magnificent beauty.  This place on 30A, is no exception. With beaches all along the 18.5 miles of scenic 30A,  Seaside is one of my favorite spots.  The kids are thrilled to run free in the large open grassy… Continue reading Seaside

Despite my early morning anguish, I did it anyway to watch Food Network’s “The Best Thing I Ever Ate”.  One of the featured chefs spoke of these Asian garlic noodles that he had in Los Angeles.  I had to have them!!!

I guess I should be glad he didn’t ask for a Giada De Laurentils cookbook.  My cleavage wouldn’t measure up.

Funny Story About Pho

Pronounced “fuh”.  Fuhnny, huh?  The first time I ever had it, I wanted to try the full deal.  No Americanizing for me, please.  I want to experience the taste of the Vietnamese!  So, when “Pho” opened on the beach (no need to question what’s being served here), I wanted to order the authentic pho with… Continue reading Funny Story About Pho

Farmer’s Market Finds

I love to support local farmers.  Often, you get organic produce picked only a few days ago and you don’t have to pay the price for the USDA organic certification.  We are very loyal to Elmer.  He sets up shop less than 1/2 a mile from our house.  He is a beekeeper as well as… Continue reading Farmer’s Market Finds

My spa blue KitchenAid mixer is my best friend in the kitchen.  I use to have a red one to go with my red kitchen accessories.  When I got married, I decided my new favorite color was spa blue, or light turquoise, if you will.  I decorated my new beach home almost exclusively in this… Continue reading Pasta Disasta!

Breakfast is a hard meal for me.  Not everyone will eat cereal, you know, the easy breakfast.  One kid says the sweeter the better, hardly able to contain her excitement if anything I make contains chocolate, syrup, honey or any other form of sugar.  This kid will choke down canned asparagus (triple gross) if bribed… Continue reading Breakfast Parfaits

I made the “panini” from a Giada de Leurantiis recipe, much to my husband’s delight as is any mention of the name Giada. My Dad says, “Giada is getting too big for her…

A Day in Philly

A lesson on America’s history.  A view of the liberty bell and a tour of Independence Hall.  I guess the tour guide’s mustache muffled his voice because I didn’t hear a word! Coupled with the chasing around of the two youngest monsters trying to stuff liberty bell cards down the antique vents, it was impossible… Continue reading A Day in Philly
