Old Town - Pizza Bella

One of our lunch choices was clear across the other side of Old Town. The other coupon I had was near the trolley stop and featured pizza, which the girls preferred over Mexican food.

We would soon find out if this claim was true or not...

Karina's Enamorada

[Update - Closed and relocated to Otay Ranch mall]

A few weeks ago, the coworkers and I went to the end of the year party for our union. The bash was held here:

Random photos here and there

This is another post with one off photos. The kind where I only take a few and it's not really enough for a full post. Either that or I've forgotten about them until now.

Every weekend there's always a different group selling food after mass. Sometimes there's donuts or Mexican pan dulces. This time, it was Filipino food. I like the backwards dollar sign there!

With the weather getting warmer, that means it's time to wear open toes shoes again...

Tomodachi 3x

Near my parents house is a little strip mall off the 805 and Palm Ave in Otay Mesa.

You can find Teresita's there (home of the Chamango), as well as El Ranchero (known for their birria), Mc D's, and more neighborhood favorites, such as this sushi place up on the hill past KFC...

Pastries, bolillos & Honey Shrimp

Earlier today I was in the area doing errands and thought I'd stop by to get a few breakfast pastries...

It's nice going in the morning because everything is fully stocked, very fresh, and smells so good...

I ended up having to go here again later that day...

Fart Food - Roasted Brussel Sprouts

OMG, this is the BEST video ever...

It's everything you wanted to know about why brussel sprouts make your farts smell so horridly! Let's not try to pretend we're all genteel and don't fart! This is educational and should be shared, ha ha!

If you would like to test this out, please feel free to try out this simple recipe for research...

Fruity ice pops

Just the other day, I was reading Kirbie's blog and saw that she posted on homemade fruit bars.

I really liked the look of her fruity bars and decided to dig up our old popsicle maker. This is one of two that I bought years ago at Target...
