My eldest is headed back to school this Monday and she loves the beach so we drove from San Francisco to Stinson Beach in Marin County to enjoy our last few moments of summer break. Stinson Beach is about 23 miles north of San Francisco and makes for a nice day trip. Traffic gets rough […]
The Flying Chancla Report
Hola Chulas y Chulos! It’s time for your weekly chanclazo from The Flying Chancla Report. I’ve cast my chancla far and wide across the internets and this is what it has smacked across: So there is an official Frida Kahlo app and it’s free. You can download it via Google Play or iTunes.

Wednesday Wishes
Hello, hello, it’s time to manifest some abundance in our lives by making Wednesday Wishes. Here’s the thing you know how you spend so much time worrying about stuff and for the most part worrying makes you feel like crap? The beautiful thing about making wishes is that if you spend time thinking about the […]
Is your Abuela Sexist?
I can honestly say that my abuela was sexist. She’s no longer alive, she died what feels like a very long time ago, but I can still remember how my blood would boil at some of the sexist things she would say to me. Of course she told me I had to learn to cook, […]
You Can Stop HIV One Conversation at a Time

Group Texts Are Annoying
I am not a fan of the group text. In fact I think group texts are annoying. Especially those ones that people send out on Mother’s Day or Christmas or International Group Text Day (yes, I know it’s not an actual holiday, but it may as well be). Most of the time I don’t even […]
Eddie’s Cafe (Sundays In My City)
I’m not really a going out for breakfast person because big American style breakfasts make me want to go right back to bed, but recently a friend was visiting and he loves Eddie’s Cafe, which is in our neighborhood so of course we went. I have to say that whenever the option is available, I […]
