Inspired by Pad Thai

I love a good pad thai…but it’s something I’ve never made at home until a few days ago. I had the noodles, but not the usual gamut of veggies that you see in pad thai: bean sprouts, bok choi, peanuts. Nor did I have eggs or the requisite tamarind paste.

Noble Canyon & Alpine Brewery

happy love day… Here’s a “fungestion” for you…   About a one hour drive from San Diego proper is a trail that takes you through forest, valley, meadow and lake. This is one of those magical spots that I actually hesitate to post about as I love the tranquility and peacefulness of the place, butContinue reading “Noble Canyon & Alpine Brewery”
