January 3, 2012 Mad Hungry Woman 35 Comments

Let’s start 2012 right with my first post of the year — Old Vine Cafe. I’ve been here several times in the last few years but have never written anything until now. I’ve asked myself why but the only answer I can come up with is no real excuse except for the lack of pretty […]

About Me

This blog is a journal of mostly my eating adventures, but also, other things I'm passionate about, including travel, the arts, and also, necessities to complete my life. Centered predominantly in and around Orange County, CA, some will extend to Los Angeles, San Diego and beyond. I am constantly searching for delicious food to eat and fun things to do, nothing is out of bounds. Sometimes it doesn't end well, but I can definitely say, it will always be an interesting journey.
