J.E.T.S.

Miraclously, I was out and about quite early this morning for an appointment.

This sign near the corner of Otay Lakes Road and Bonita Road has been on the curb for the past few months and it was time to finally give it a shot...

Road Trip with Cathy - First stop...where else?

This past weekend, I celebrated the end of the school/work year by going on a food road trip with Cathy of Mmm-Yoso...

We left at the ungodly hour of 5 am in order to catch the first Rose Parade Float Road Test in Pasadena (that post is forthcoming)...

Fort Point

Afrer our little snack at La Boulange, we took the scenic route to our next destination...

Passing by LIttle Tokyo and the outer neighborhoods of SF...

I love how the buildings here have such distinct architectural details, especially bay windows...

Once we saw the bridge in the distance, we knew we were close by...

St. Charles Bazaar 2014

Another church bazaar, but this time, St. Charles. We go every year and there are the same but popular food booths like this one...

selling corn on the cob for $1.50 (can't beat that price), along with many tried and true faves...

Dolphin's (The former South Bay Fish & Grille)

This past Friday was Graduation, which to me signals the end of the the school and work year!

The co-workers and I met up for lunch immediately after the ceremony and decided on the newly renamed Dolphins on the J St./Marina Parkway in Chula Vista...

St. Rita's Church Bazaar

This was the first church festival we attended this summer. One of our good friends is very involved with St. Rita's Catholic Church, located off Euclid and Imperial.

We wanted to show our support for the dance troup and also check out this church festival compared to ours, especially foodwise...

Centro Cultural de la Raza

A few weekends ago, Bert and I attended the FilGrad event at a building I'd always wondered about...

Several of my friends' kids were graduating high school and we wanted to show our support...

TC is now a freshman!

This morning, TC promoted from her middle school...

Time surely does fly...

It's hard to believe that our TC, along with her cousin (Nephew #4, this is the one who is one day older than her) are now officially high school freshmen!

We had quite the long day...

Romesco's + Hans & Harry 2x this week

Last Saturday Bert and I had another "date" day...

TC was off doing several dance performances so we finally used my coupon for lunch...

Billboards and a revisit to Big Ben's Market

Recently seen in National City...

This was somewhere along the northern end of National City Blvd. There was another one on Highland Ave featuring different musical artists. I loved that this was in Spanish and targeted their audience...Plus, the Fab Fair sounds so beautiful in Spanish - "Un Feria Fabulosa"!    Andale pues! 

Later on that day, I saw another billboard in another part of town...

R.I.P. Alice

If you were a child of the 70's....

you would recognize this lady's face, TV legend Ann B. Davis who played the housekeeper on "The Brady Bunch" tv-series which my siblings and I would watch on the good ole electronic babysitter...
