    I take for granted that my hometown of Chicago is thought of as a world-renown food capital. That is, I do until I visit another state and the fact that I’m from Chicago comes up in conversation with someone I meet. More often than not, they comment on how great the food was when they visited–or lived in–the Windy City. And then they proceed to tell me how lucky I am to have so many great dining options near me. My husband, girls and I have found some wonderful restaurants during the trips we’ve taken to various cities around the country. But, I must admit that I do understand why…

    I have been a fan of palm trees ever since seeing them in person during my first trip to Southern California in November of 1988. It’s hard to put into words exactly how wonderful I felt whenever I saw them. But it’s safe to say that gazing upon them made me feel happy and relaxed. So, it makes sense that, my favorite places to visit to date–in the United States and abroad–are those that have allowed me to see palm trees at some point during my time there. Speaking of my list of places I’d like to visit, it gets longer every year. The more you go, the more you…

    February 17, 2020

    I wouldn’t say that I went on a lot of trips when I was growing up but, since my mom worked in the airline industry back then, I did take some special ones. For example, my parents took me on a four-day trip to Jamaica when I was only six years old. I don’t remember a lot about our mini-vacation. But, two things stick out in my mind about our time away from home: it was exciting to be able to tell my classmates and teacher why I would be missing a few days of school and the food that I ate while we were there was delicious! Over the…

    January 4, 2020

    “Mom, this is really good.” Although my girls typically enjoy the meals I make, I must admit that hearing the above comment as we were eating my Thai Steak Lettuce Wraps yesterday was music to my ears! Why? Because I’d never thought about making lettuce wraps until recently and had never even eaten them. My hubby and oldest daughter have ordered lettuce wraps at a couple of restaurants before. So, I have seen them in person. However, I’d never paid much attention to what was needed to make them until recently. I often seek my girls input when I’m trying to figure out what to cook. And, this week was…
