Emma and Henry went on their first fishing expedition this year. Granpa and Henry had gone on a special shopping trip to prepare and came back with a fishing hat and a fancy Spiderman rod. After practicing his casting at...
If you're a fan of messy babies, you are in luck! This set of photos shows Cora gnawing on her first biter biscuit. It was a messy affair, indeed, and one that she enjoyed immensely. These pictures were taken back...
My favorite food in the world are Marla's buttermilk biscuits. They're flakey, buttery and gosh-darn good. To make excellent biscuits you must use soft, winter wheat flower. The lower protein and gluten content makes for softer, flakier biscuits. We like...
We had an unusually warm day in January so we took the opportunity to visit the beach! We started with a visit to Gary's Deli in Corona Del Mar. We've been coming here since just before Emma was born, though...
At the end of December we headed south to San Diego for a long weekend in celebration of our 12th anniversary. Our destination: the San Diego Wild Animal Park. We'd talked about going for years but never made the trip....
I had a few more Japanese delicacies on my last trip Japan that I wanted to make sure and capture. Kyoto was fairly sedate, with another trip for kushiage being the highlight. I think I'm growing fond of shrimp heads,...
You may be thinking, "Fushimi Inari whaaa?" but I can assure you that you know exactly what I'm talking about. If you're ever in Kyoto, definitely visit Fushimi. If you've ever in Fushimi definitely skip the sparrow. You'll thank me on both counts.
We stayed home this year for Thanksgiving. It was a bit smaller than I'm used to from childhood (no "kids table" filled with cousins) but it was nice not having to travel.
Our menu was excellent, as usual.
GameSpy took a trip down to Doheny State Beach for an office outing at the end of July. In addition to a cookout and some play at the beach there was a "Fear Factor" style eating contest.
I'm always game for trying new foods. I've had reindeer and moose in Sweden. I had lutefisk in Norway. I'm always down for sushi and I'm a big fan of the goat at my beloved Taqueria Zamora. While in Japan I did my best to sample as much new cuisine as possible.
On the last day my parents were here we paid a visit to Ono Ono, a local Hawaiian restaurant. We're gearing up for our big trip to the Big Island at the end of December. Henry chowed down on some...
While my parents were in town visiting at the end of October we made a trek to Oak Glen to try our hands at some good, old fashioned apple picking. Who knew they even grew apples here in southern California?...
We went to the Taste of Newport a few weeks ago with Katie and Spiff. It's a big food and music festival held in Newport Beach. We went to sample the wares of local restaurants like Agora Churrascaria, Clayton Shurley's,...
We made chocolate ice cream the other week and, as you can see, the kids seemed to enjoy it. It was the first time we'd attempted making chocolate and it turned out fairly well. I think that Emma and Henry would have enjoyed it either way!
A few weeks ago we went to P.F. Chang's for dinner. I forget what the occassion was but we ended up having a blast, as you can see. Both Emma and Henry ate with abandon. This is always a nice...
Henry has been putting all of this new teeth to good use. As evidenced in these pictures the boy likes to gnaw. Nothing makes him happier than to whittle a carrot down to size with his new molars. All four...
Emma has been itching to get to get back to a "car show" since we went to the California International Autoshow back in October. So a few weeks ago we went up to L.A. to see the L.A. Auto Show....
