Last month I had attended a wonderful event at the Nestle headquarters in Glendale. It was to honor the Día de los Muertos holiday, which in English means, Day of the Dead. Día de los Muertos is a Mexican holiday where families and friends gather to celebrate, remember & prepare special foods in honor of those who have departed.

Behind the Scenes at Aquarium of the Pacific
Last month my family was fortunate to get a behind-the-scenes tour of Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. We went during the weekend of Scarium of the Pacific & had a blast!

Seal’s New Album “7” Drops Today!
When I first heard Seal’s music back in the early 90s, I was just starting college & still rocking the big hair (not sure why). I played those two CDs (“Seal” & “Seal II”) to death!
