Kevin and I lived in San Francisco for several years before making the big move to Los Angeles. Truth be told, we had a tough time adjusting to LA after enjoying San Francisco’s incomparable food scene and its walkable bliss. No trip to San Francisco is complete without a stop…
Looking for ideas to celebrate New Years Eve in Dubai in 2020? You came to the right spot. There are few cities in the world that go as over the top as Dubai during the New Year — from the spectacular fireworks display at the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai…
When Kevin and I lived in Boston, one of our favorite fall activities was apple picking in the New England countryside. Though, I have to admit, Saturday Night Live’s sketch riffing on the “pick your own” apple experience is pretty spot on — especially Kate McKinnon’s line, “For just $45,…

Our birthday celebrations continue. And clearly, we can stretch out a birthday like nobody else! This year, I surprised Kevin with a birthday escape to Tennessee.
