A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures is interested in getting to know where her food comes from. So, we jumped at the chance to meet and learn about ostrich farming and visited Misty Morning Ostrich Ranch in North Carolina. If you’re in the area I highly recommend you visit Ryan and…
If you haven’t attended the Food Wine Conference, you really should. It’s the blogger family reunion you didn’t know about combined with some excellent speakers to help you nurture your blog and brand.
After our antique shopping Friday, the spa treatments and the fabulous dinner, we were reluctant to check out. BUT we were to head home Saturday; planning to spend the night some place in Pennsylvania on the way home. We knew we wouldn’t make it all the way home…
Anniversary dinners just got better with Wine on Third. It’s an eclectic and elegant atmosphere perfect for celebrating love and laughter.
Transform your ordinary lunch date into an unforgettable experience with a charming antiquing trip followed by a scrumptious lunch. It’s antiquing and White Linen Tea House lunch. A match made in heaven!
Old Fort Niagara, gorgeous views and full of history!
Celebrate your love in the heart of nature and the roar of the falls. Take your anniversary to new heights in Niagara Falls.
The Fog in Bosnia makes for an early departure home with a delicious soft pretzel, interesting coat hook, and interesting airline dinner.
Before I get to my continued escapades in Sarajevo, I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope you all have safe travels, lots of turkey and sweet dreams for your naps. Please take a minute to think about those not able to be with their…
Saturday morning means more breakfast exploration. I had cereal, again, but also tried out the chicken pate and the wedge cheese on a roll and the Eurocrem hazelnut stuff on a croissant. Since N and I were to be on a tour most of the day, I ate…
Finally! It’s Friday. I swear it was the longest week EVAH! I don’t think I’ve been happier it was a Friday in a while. Usually it’s just another day to me. But today! MAN was I happy! I seriously needed some weekend rest. Today was inventory…
A very VERY VERY foggy day in Sarajevo today. Is it really only Thursday? Come on weekend! Hurry up! I need a rest. I need some down time. I need a break from being ON 24/7. Those with work travel can understand that. The “on” statement. About an…
Guess what day it is? Guess what day it is? It’s HUMP DAY! In Bosnia for this post at least. LOL I couldn’t resist. I woke up thinking, “This two weeks are going to take FOREVER!” It’s only Wednesday. *sigh* I splurge at breakfast this morning and get…
More breakfast exploration. I tried the other cereal that wasn’t cocoa puffs. Man. It was crunchy. Really crunchy. I’m eating it thinking, “Maybe this is supposed to be like a hot cereal? And I should have used the warm milk instead of regular, cold milk?” I crunch through…
I had no expectations for breakfast. I just didn’t. I never do. As long as there’s cereal I’m happy. And there was. There were a few other interesting items, too. There are at least 4 types of cheese: feta, smoked Gouda, mozzarella, and a spicy smoked something. I’m…
I knew this trip was coming. I was hoping it was going to be postponed at least a week, but no. Congratulations on your new marriage, now go to Bosnia. LOL I told everyone I went with that I DID NOT want to hear anyone complaining or talking…
Just Us on a Mountain Part 3 – Lots of wind, beautiful views, gifts from family, and “reception” dinner.
Of course I can’t sleep. I mean, how in the world does any bride sleep the night before their wedding? Seriously? So I am up around 6 I think? I make coffee, we shower and head to breakfast. Pancakes for me and eggs and biscuits for him. …
Just Us on a Mountain Part 1 – Wedding travel, dinner, and how we got to be on the mountain.
Just Us on a Mountain
Bogota 3.4 and AGAVE AZUL! YAY!
Central Cevicheria
Not really. Just on travel again. I had intended to put together a post this weekend, but I felt like crap and somehow managed to KILL my left knee. So, I was a sloth. Well, not really. I was working on things that I can’t post about until…
Homeward bound but in an oh crap my alarm didn’t go off kind of way. Arepas and Juan Valdez, weird airplane breakfast, and delicious toasted sandwich for lunch. I’m ready to go home!
Day 5 – Yay for the last day. I loves me some arepas! And traditional Colombian food comes with yummy arepas, Thundra shopping, and a quick dinner at Agadon.
Day 4 in Bogota. Man these are good ritas at Agave Azul with delicious Mexican chef’s table food.
Day 3 in Bogota brings a better day, Agave Azul, and some black fettuccine. This is my first time tasting squid ink pasta.
Day 2 and Negativity Abundance. My coworker lists all the problems, but doesn’t offer any solutions or suggestions to make things better.
Bogota Day 1 of me as a team lead for this work trip. The room is too comfy, the food is always delicious, and the company is too opinionated and needs to learn processes before saying they’re broken.
In my effort to try to step up my blog posts, I thought I would try to start a weekly recap. *shrugs* Hopefully I can keep this up. If not, I’ll be like one of those hundreds of blogs that just fall off the radar due to life. This blog…
Elevate your taco game with slow braised guajillo pepper beef. The perfect blend of heat and flavor in every bite. Your taste buds will thank you.
We’re moving. Again. When we took this apartment, we had a roommate. NEVER AGAIN! It was HORRID! So now, they’re raising our rent. AGAIN! Yes, I know they’re supposed to raise it but it’s like $80-$90 more than it was last year! And we can’t lock into more…
Hasta luego Colombia! A large L’Occitane toiletries haul, lots photos from the plan, rain in Miami, and finally touch down in DC.
My Gastronomique Tour de Colombia in Bogota is filled with photos of cacti and a sandwich, but not the spaghetti dinner from the hotel restaurant.
I’m done. I don’t want to be here any more!! I’ve done what I can and it’s up to them to finish it up and tweak and what not…. SO it was a nice break from the 2 weeks of work to have a SUNNY day and a…
I miss popcorn. Not that they don’t have it here, I just miss the way I make it…in my kitchen….with my S and my M. I miss when I do something good or if something bad happens at work, I miss that I can’t immediately tell S. I…
I’m tired…downright exhausted, actually. The work isn’t easy. The late nights and early mornings are tiring. The simple fact that I don’t sleep well at night cause I miss S is the worst! I toss…I turn…I wake up frequently cause I’m just not comfortable! *pout* So, today was…
Dinner? I went to the cevicheria up the street. Wow. I’m slacking. I will need to look that up tonight when I head out for dinner. It was interesting. The waiter didn’t speak English. And my Spanglish isn’t so great sometimes. He asked me something at one point…
Soooooo, today I am TOTALLY by myself today. My bubble isn’t that big and I am not sure how far I should wander. I got my days mixed up and thought V was going to pick me up today and play tourist with me. Not so much. I have…
Esta Domingo! *snort* Today, I’m supposed to go to Usaquen where there is a market like a flea market? Or craft market? I get up this morning…bright and early as usual. I head down to grab a light bite, knowing that lunch will be later and then just…
Early January, work tells me that I will need say Hola de Colombia to help with a FY2013 budget either the end of January or the beginning of February. Me, “Can it be more towards February? I don’t want to be in Colombia for my birthday.” So, here…
