[128/365] Tater Tot Casserole, Union City, California, USA
Yes, to answer your question, it does taste as delicious as it looks! My cousin, Amanda, brought up the idea of cooking jambalaya, and I thought of this tater tot casserole that I had seen pictures of in her food album. We layered the tray with chili and hot dog slices, topped it with extra […]
[127/365] Rising Sun Trail, Solstice Canyon Loop Hike, Malibu, California, USA
Yesterday I went on a hike on the Solstice Canyon Loop. The Rising Sun Trail took us uphill and to great views of the ocean and the hills and valleys all around us. The trail then went downhill into the Tropical Terrace where we had lunch on some rocks above a waterfall. Fun puppy hike! […]

One of our many stops along the PCH was in Big Sur. Along the road were these colorful and interesting looking flowers, with a No Parking guard right by it. Stops on road trips always seem to have unique characteristics depending on where you are.
[124/365] Harry Potter Footprints, Grauman’s Chinese Theater, Hollywood, California, USA
Having visitors is a great excuse to take my camera around and pretend to be a tourist in LA! On this excursion, we went to the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre and walked past the stars and through the many cement handprints and footprints that cover the space around the entrance of the theater. This one was […]
[123/365] Orchids, Happy Mother’s Day, San Jose, California, USA

[122/365] View along the Pacific Coast Highway, California, USA
The drive between the Bay Area and LA along the Pacific Coast Highway is long and windy, but worth it for the beautiful scenery. It was a gloomy day, but the views of the ocean, bridges, and mountains were still nice. Thank goodness for the Dramamine – didn’t really get carsick! We missed seeing the […]

[119/365] Sculpture Garden & Trees, UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA
I was at UCLA this past weekend. Oh, how I miss college days! Went there to make a delivery, but stayed a little while to take a stroll around campus. Made my rounds to Kerckhoff (I was there so much, you could call it my past home), Ackerman, Bruin Bear, Powell, Royce, Bunche Hall, Dodd […]
