Comment for a Cause – May

Oklahoma for the Arts

Last month I began a monthly campaign called Comment for a Cause to raise money for charities.  In April, I raised $100 for charity:water thanks to you and your comments! This month I am pleased to raise money for an organization that is very important to the heart of one of my longest blog readers [...]

Traveler Tuesday – Natalie Taylor of Near. Afar.

Nat - Capilano Cliffwalk Vancouver

I had the pleasure of visiting Toronto very briefly during the Toronto International Film Festival a few years back and instantly fell in love.  I am also a big fan of Mardi of Eat Live Travel Write (those are all of my favorite things!) who lives in Toronto, has an amazing food blog and introduced [...]

Tourist in My Town – San Francisco’s Chinatown Part 1

San Francisco Chinatown Ma Tsu Temple

I took the week off between jobs to play tourist in San Francisco and Sacramento (more on that later).  I had such a great experience visiting Haight-Ashbury last November that when I starting planning what I wanted to do I immediately looked to some of the food tours in San Francisco.  Only problem was it [...]

Friday Food Foto – Shrimp and Chive Dumplings

Chinatown Four Seas Dumplings

This is a photo of yummy shrimp and chive dumplings from a lunch I had while playing tourist in Chinatown.  It is a post I am working on, but as my time is a bit limited right now, I have yet to finish it (coming soon!). Now, onto More Tasty Tidbits: From Spoon Fork Bacon: [...]

(Not quite) Wordless Wednesday #189: Tranquility Now

Japanese Tranquility

I have always found that many aspects of the Japanese culture produce tranquility.  I took this photo two weeks ago just before enjoying dinner. It was during my first week of work and I found the setting of my local Japanese restaurant, O’Chame, tranquil. Oh sure, the beer didn’t hurt…. I thrive on change and [...]

Traveler Tuesday – Patrick Bennett of Uncommon Caribbean

When in Rome with Audrey

Audrey Hepburn in Rome

If I could choose one woman’s fashion style to emulate for the rest of my life it would be Audrey Hepburn. I am attracted to her simple yet classic style that seems to be timeless. I am not one to spend a lot of time thinking about my beauty routine or what I wear, so [...]

Traveler Tuesday – Kirsten Alana of Aviators and a Camera

Traveler Tuesday – Kirsten Alana of Aviators and a Camera - Train

To say I admire the formidable photographic skills of Kirsten Alana of Aviators and a Camera is an understatement. She is fiercely talents and her creative vision resonates with me. She is drawn to colors the way I am. She frames her images in the way I would want to. That is if I had [...]

Organic Food For Everyone

Organic Food

This post was sponsored by TakePart.com. All opinions are 100% my own. I am extremely fortunate to live in the San Francisco Bay Area where organic food is pretty prevalent.  Mr. Misadventures and I eat local and/or organic food, staying away from processed food whenever possible. We do not eat fast food and [very little] [...]

Make a Wish – World Wish Day

World Wish Day

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Make-A-Wish. The opinions and text are all mine. They say things happen in threes, but how about four?  It seems that charity is a theme that is not going away, and that is not necessarily a bad thing.  First there was a launch of [...]
