Delicious Destination: Austin, TX

The aforementioned perfect michelada was handcrafted for me during a weekend roadtrip to Austin. And we did Austin right.  The weight I gained was worth it in gold, because we ate like kings and queens.  The group was made up of a few longtime Austin residents, a few frequent visitors, and a couple of Austin novices, and we balanced BBQ, Tex-Mex, and home cooking for a completely delicious weekend.

Delicious Destinations: Toronto

Last weekend, we set out to see Niagara Falls. And see the falls we did.  They were magnificent!  Everyone should go!  Why did I wait so long?  And not only did we see the falls, but along the way, we ate some amazing food.  Toronto is truly a delicious place.

Delicious Destinations: Kentucky Derby Favorites

My dad is a Kentuckian.  Does that mean I am a Kentuckian once removed?  I have never been to the Derby, but I like both wearing hats and drinking bourbon.  So in honor of the Kentucky Derby, I thought I would post my favorite Kentucky recipes.

Delicious Destination: New Orleans, LA

It's the first weekend of Jazz Fest, my sister's favorite holiday of the year. Neither of us are there this year.  I can hardly believe it!  To make up for it, I thought I would put together a post of my favorite NOLA treats to take me back.

Travel Treats: LA's Infamous Cronut

A cronut is a cross between a croissant and a donut.  Like a liger is a cross between a lion and a tiger.  Both are rare, infrequently sighted, almost mythical.  The original cronut was born in Manhattan, but knockoffs abound.  Lucky for me, DK's Donuts in Santa Monica is making seemingly authentic cronuts at a discount price, with a line often stretching around the corner, but moving fast!
