Food Friday: Eating my way through North Carolina

What you are about to see is embarrassing.  Only for the simple fact that I’m about to disclose to you the unbelievable…yet necessary (haha, lies) amount of food I’ve eaten in the past five days.

If you’ve ever needed travel inspiration…

Hi friends! If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram (if you don’t follow me, what are you waiting for?), you know that I’m currently on a southern road trip.  For the past five days I’ve been eating my way through North Carolina before heading down to South Carolina and...

Food Saturday: Kent Island and Kent Manor Inn

Well unfortunately yesterday’s Food Friday post didn’t publish for some reason, so here it is under the guise of Food Saturday!  I’m going to be up front and say that there won’t be a TON of food in this post but I’m sure you’ll be ok.  Let’s continue with...

Historic Annapolis

I’m a complete sucker for historic towns, harbor towns and towns with a central Main street.  Annapolis has all three which pretty much made it love at first sight.  I don’t know why I haven’t spent more time in Annapolis since it’s about 25 minutes from my house but I will...

I’m hitting the road!

Woohoo it’s road trip time!  I’m busting out of DC this weekend to check out a few towns on the eastern shore of Maryland and I could not be more excited.  One sentiment that I’ve always tried to express on this blog is that the idea that travel does not...

In case you missed it…

Food Friday: Danzante Restaurant at Villa del Palmar

The meal I had at Danzante restaurant was the best meal I’ve ever eaten at an all-inclusive resort.  I’d like to preface that bold statement by offering the small disclaimer that it is also the first meal I’ve ever had an all-inclusive resort.  What is it about all-inclusives?  I guess the...

Mission San Javier – San Javier, Mexico

Our second day in Mexico is one I like to refer to as the longest day in history.  I’m obviously being dramatic, but I just mention that so that you know that there may end up being three posts all about the same day haha. A portion of this day...

Ill Street Blues

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the opening event for the newest exhibit at the Corcoran College of Art + Design – Ill Street Blues.  The college-organized exhibit was an ode to the often misunderstood world of street art and graffiti, as students and street artists displayed their...

Travel Tuesday: Villa del Palmar at the Islands of Loreto

It’s time to visit America’s other neighbor!  Last week I had the pleasure of attending a media trip to the Baja California region of Mexico.  It was quite the trek from DC, requiring an overnight layover in Los Angeles and then a two-hour flight from LA to Loreto, Mexico. ...
