Sloan’s Ice Cream at The Village in Woodland Hills!

Posted on October 29, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: Sloan’s Ice Cream, The Village at Westfield Topanga, Woodland Hills ice cream | 2 Comments

When I first walked into Sloan’s Ice Cream store, I was blown away by all of the eye candy (pun intended)! It is like a dream come true for people with a sweet tooth (aka my husband & daughter). We were fortunate to get a behind the scenes tour of the very first Sloan’s Ice Cream store in the Los Angeles area. How lucky are we that it is also in the San Fernando Valley, located at The Village at Westfield Topanga! The décor … [Read more...]

The Art of Creating Sweets at Cake – The Sweets & Party Expo

Posted on October 26, 2015 | Filed Under: Food, Local Events | Tags: Cake - The Sweets & Party Expo, Orange County Cake Expo, Ruchel Freibrun | Leave a Comment

This post was written by guest contributor Ruchel Freibrun. I have never been to Cake - The Sweets & Party Expo because baking is not my thing. But my friend, blogger Jen Miyagishima, could not go and asked me if I would like to take my family since I live in OC and I readily said “Yes.” Do you know why I said “yes” - because I wanted to see what all of the hype was about! With all of the cake TV shows such as Cupcake Wars on The Food … [Read more...]

Sometimes I go to restaurants with my family & I think, hmmmm…been there, done that or this is a similar concept but I like the other place better. Well at Stacked, the food is well built because YOU get to be in charge of the personalization of your food! Stacked has four locations in the SoCal area: Thousand Oaks, Cerritos, San Diego and Torrance. I had the opportunity to visit the Thousand Oaks location, which is conveniently … [Read more...]

The book contains cocktail recipes for every drink occasion. But first…here’s a little background on the authors of … [Read more...]

#UnFreshingBelievable Salads From Del Taco + Giveaway!

Posted on October 9, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: Del Taco, Handcrafted Ensaladas, Salad at Del | 27 Comments

As a busy mom with multiple jobs, there are days when I am short on time. So if that means I don’t get to the grocery store for food shopping or I don’t have time to cook a dinner from scratch (and really, who has time for that 7 days a week anyhow?), then that means I am buying take-out food. On days when it’s more convenient to do drive-through, it’s nice to know that Del Taco has me covered! Del Taco recently unveiled three new yummy … [Read more...]

Posted on October 2, 2015 | Filed Under: Food | Tags: CAKE The Sweets Expo, Club MomMe events, Orange County Cake Expo | 6 Comments

Ok, so you may be wondering why I am blogging about a dessert expo that is in Orange County. Although I am based in “The Valley” (that’s the 818 area code of SoCal), I do travel to Orange County quite a bit. I have family that lives down there AND for those who follow me on Instagram & Twitter, you know that I am at Disneyland quite a bit (shout out to passholders!) I am excited to bring you the 411 of what looks to be an amazing Fall … [Read more...]
