Japanese Beef Curry

An easy meal to cook while on vacation is this simple curry dish. Always a favorite.
Had to get the S&B Golden Curry Sauce Mix online as it was not available at the Asian market.

Yo-Yo

Yo-Yos are not a thing of the past. It's refreshing to see the growing interest. Watch Gentry Stein's yo-yo skills and be amazed like I did.

My Moto G 4th Gen.

How frustrating it is to land and find your current phone carrier having limited to no coverage at a place you will be vacationing? Quite disappointed as I have been a happy customer for the past five years. A new phone and a new carrier. Sad to say, goodbye Virgin Mobile and hello AT&T.

Honesty = Arnaldo's

Not going into all the details, but will say that Arnaldo's was honest to acknowledge their mistake and quick to rectify the problem. Honesty, does still exist.

Now, lets talk about their food. In one word. YUMMY! Three of our favorites, Carne Asada Steak, Carnitas Verde and of course, Tamales. Thanks Darcie.

Thank You Jan

My favorite California chocolate. Brings back lots of good memories. A sweet treat from a sweet young lady. Thank you for being so kind and thoughtful.

Eat Thai

Was craving for Thai food and this unexpected place to get my fix sure came as a surprise. A food truck for my Thai food? A first for me, but this food truck doesn't disappoint. I highly recommend the Pad Thai. The best I've had in a long time. Another favorite is the Deep Fried Pork Jerky. Don't forget to order the Thai Milky Ice Tea. What are you craving for?

Life's Choices...

If only it was as easy as choosing coffee flavors. Nespresso anyone?

Kroll's Diner

The lure of this 50's style looking diner brought us in for breakfast. And when they say, "You won't find Foo Foo food here! Just tasty, old fashioned German and American favorites in portions you can actually see". They are not kidding you. The portions are generous. Be ready to be asking for a to go box for your leftovers as we all did. We started with an Appetizer Sampler(Popcorn chicken bites, mozzarella cheese sticks and onion rings). After which, I ordered their Country Fried Steak breakfast (8 oz) topped with their yummy country sausage gravy. Their homemade brown gravy is also available as a choice. Of course it came with hash browns and your choice of 2 eggs, over easy for me please. It was a nice treat to be able to choose French toast. Pancake and biscuit with gravy are the other choices. The food was great and our waitress was very attentive. Next time, I'm going to try their Knoephla soup. A man sitted nearby ordered a bucket, yes you read that right, a bucket of this Knoephla soup he just finished eating. That tells me that it must be really good to want to order a bucket of soup to go. I'm having another dose of good food at Kroll's Diner soon. That's how I started my Sunday. How's your day so far?

A New Start... A New Life... A New Blog...

And my first stroopwafel. I have to say, it made drinking tea more enjoyable.
Found three flavors, HoneyMaple, and Caramel.
