Las Vegas Quickie

Shortly before this madness started, I did an overnight in Las Vegas. I’d bought the ticket for a mere $58 roundtrip back in November or December, picking a random midweek day/date thinking that there would be less tourists. I didn’t get around to looking at accommodations until late in January. It was then that I … Continue reading »

Sunny South Beach

The end of May marked my return to South Beach for a week.  My AirBnB rental was near Washington and 8th, not that far from last year’s rental.  On this trip, I made it to the beach every single morning or afternoon and it was so relaxing for me.  My daily routine was generally sunbathing … Continue reading »

Muffelatta Monday

You know what was on my mind for Monday, right?  I intended to have a muffeletta, come Hell or high water!

Slow Sunday

It wasn’t exactly hot by the pool this morning.  It wasn’t cold, either; just pleasant.  I did, however, seem to be a tone darker after coming in. My plan was to head down to check out the Art on the Fence at the Honolulu Zoo.  Local artists show their art there every Saturday and Sunday … Continue reading »

Happily Cost Effective

I don’t know about you, but I like to budget as much as possible.  In other words, I prefer to shop at warehouse or discount-type places for food (CostCo, Target & Trader Joe’s), go for drinks at Happy Hour, see a matinee rather than paying full-price for a movie, take my own snacks to a … Continue reading »
