From East to West

June 5, 2011 | Uncategorized

Hello from California!

Since Friday, I have gone from Port Canaveral, FL to Southern California! I am quite tired and jet lagged, but happy to be here! So after my layover in Denver yesterday, I made it to the Ontario airport where Crystal and her sweet boy Kenji picked me up!

I couldn’t get over the mountains everywhere! Even from her backyard.

For lunch, I wanted to go somewhere I have never been, so of course we went to In N Out!

We went to Downtown Disney and had dinner at Storyteller’s Cafe.

It was a buffet, and the food was really good. We walked around Downtown Disney for a bit, I have more pictures I will share with you later.

So, Yes, I am in California, and so glad I get to see Crystal and Kenji, BUT, that’s not my REAL reason for coming out west. Why am I hear? Any ideas? Any guesses? I cannot WAIT to share with you!!

QOTD: WHY am I in California?

    So beautiful! And Kenji is sooooo cute!

    Hmmm, I bet you’re in California because you’ve given up on travel agent-ing and want to be an actress. Good luck at your audition! 😉

So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 Ju So it’s actually today…HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! 🎉 
July 13th happens to be a pretty great day if you ask me. 😜

Today I’m 41. I’m not a fan of odd numbers so I’m not sure yet how I feel about this year. 😆

I will say I am always very reflective on my birthday. I’m grateful for every year God has given me, and know how blessed I am to have even made it to 41. Each day is truly a gift, and I don’t always live or act like it. As someone who is “over the hill,” I find myself wanting to soak it all in and slow it all down more and more, but it just keeps getting faster and faster! 🫣

Here’s to another go around, and hopefully to many, many more. 🥂

I was told @alaninutrition drinks wouldn’t make go I was told @alaninutrition drinks wouldn’t make good slushies in my new @ninjakitchen slushi. Challenge accepted. 🙋🏻‍♀️

While it’s true you need sugar to make a good slush and Alani energy drinks are lacking here, with an easy modification (fruit juice!) I got it to work, and boy was it delicious on a hot July day! ☀️ 

It was a fun, summery special occasion drink! What flavor combos should I try next? Hawaiian shaved ice + pineapple juice was so good! It was so easy I want to do it again! 🥤
