The best way to get out of a funk...

I had the sinus headache from hell this weekend...as of today, Monday, 1:20 p.m., I still have it. UGH! But the point of this post is not to complain about my headache (although it would probably feel better to jump off the roof of my office building right now...) but to show you what I did to take my mind off of my headache, at least for a while...




My roommate and I went for a very early morning walk at Crystal Cove beach. Like an idiot, I wore my "good" tennis shoes so I took them off and walked bare footed. Yes, it was cold but not freezing. It was the best thing I could have done - made me feel like a kid again, especially getting my feet wet.


I saw starfish and sea urchins! And to tell the truth, I had
never been to a tide pool before!

Uff da! How did 54 years go by without exploring a tide pool?




This next picture kinda reminds me of Planet of the Apes, eh? LOL...OK, I'm off to find some stronger meds...

Upside down Christmas Trees?

We interrupt our Disneyland visit to bring you a few pics from Tom's Farms . Ever heard of it? Unless you live in Southern California, probably not. It's a neato keen place and I really dig it. I had not been there in 10 years so it was high time I paid them a visit. They have tons of outdoor seating and it's a great place to people watch. I had a great bacon cheeseburger and then walked off my lunch by window shopping. A life sized Santa! (And he looks a bit creepy the way he's standing there. "Hey baby.." Ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? Me either! I decided to take pictures of all the trees... Look! Another upside down Christmas tree. Here's a twist - HALF of an upside down Christmas tree hung on the wall! I kinda like it. These are ginormous ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I'm already planning a return trip to Tom's Farms. I've always wanted a sleigh bed. Ain't he cute??? There is a big can

MLB Food Fest

The Food Fest was held at The Reef in Downtown LA. Each person got this bracelet with an RFID chip. That chip would keep track of the food offerings you selected inside and once you reached your limit, it would no longer work. A list of the beers being offered. The first thing I tried was Bhan Mi which consisted of slab bacon, asian slaw, sriracha mayo and a hot dog bun. Then I tired the Wisconsin Ultimate Cheese Fry which consisted of craft beer fries, cheddar cheese sauce, cheddar cheese curds, apple wood smoked bacon and minced chives. Next up were the Sisig Fries which consisted of sisig marinated chicken, Fresno chiles, fried yams, sriracha cilantro crema over fries. While I was in line for the Elote Nuggets, I took a short video so you could see the Food Fest. These were my favorite! Elote Nuggets consisting of corn nuggets, queso cotija, cayenne mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Fish and Chips from London! Batt
