Hello, I live here.

Sometimes when I drive to the beach on a whim these days, in my new home of San Diego, I do the Carrie Bradshaw twirl and say to the sky "Hello, I live here". La Jolla is obviously an incredible place to live. I have always imagined living within 10 minutes of the beach (living in LA I practically never saw the ocean!) and it's funny how you can manifest things- the thought has come full circle!

 Parts of me knows I have been here for like a whole 5 minutes, but it still doesn't feel quite like home. However, there are so many cool & creative Californians who live nearby, I finally tried one of my bucket list check points of trying roller derby (!!!), and I am getting more me-time than ever before! Life is good!
AAAAND- I finally found a Mexican Food restaurant that rivals Arizona Mex, and my sisters are coming out to visit next week for two Haim concerts! For the record we are making jackets for the occasion and I have never been more excited for a new costume! Gratitude!

I have taken a few months for me and you know what? I kind of missed this space! Who knew!? I am going to switching things up and although I don't think I will change the name..... San Diego is haute too! I will be sharing my pursuit of cool here in the whale's you know what.

Welcome back for me & you!!

D'lish Date in Tempe

Have you been to D'lish yet? They have a couple locations in Tempe and Scottsdale and it's a drive through for healthy and yes delicious food! What a novel idea? I have been meaning to pop in for months and finally had the opportunity with my pal Chelseabird!

She had the nuts and berries salas and known for never turning down a breakfast food chose a California Club breakfast sandwich! SO. GOOD. Everything you want a breakfast sandwich to be! AND! If you are in the mood to go big or go home their "Large" coffee is actually very large. 32 ounces! Take that 'Bucks!

What is your favorite in a time crunch place for tasty AND healthy options?
