I’ve been watching the show Homeland and a plot point got me to thinking about right and wrong. We’re all human, we all make mistakes, it happens. When I was younger, I used to have this very noble sense of wrong and right. This feeling that if I or someone else were to do something […]

It’s COLD and My Kids Still Want to Be Entertained, I Need a Monkey
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with WGBH and Latina Bloggers Connect. Every single year that I have lived in San Francisco something happens in October and every single year I act like it is the FIRST time that it has ever happened. IT GETS COLD! Oh and don’t give me that, you don’t […]
2-Year-Old’s Video to Mom Proves That No One Will Ever Love You as Much as Your Kids
Excuse me while I get all mom-sappy on you. I can’t help it, motherhood brings out the sap in me. You see, I expected to love my children. I knew that would happen, but I had no idea how overwhelmed I would be by the boundless love they have for me. No one, and I […]
It Took a Village, You, and Toyota to Get Me to NYC for #TopBlogueras & #Latism13
On September 7, I get an email that tells me I’ve been selected by Latism (Latinos in Social Media) to be a Top Bloguera for 2013. What does that mean? It means I’ve been invited along with 99 other top Latina bloggers to go to NYC, visit the U.N., talk to members of the Secretariat, […]
Point Reyes (Sundays In My City)
We recently took a little trip to Point Reyes, California. I showed you mine, now show me yours. Share your city/town/suburb/you name it!

Not that V.I.P. (Fragmented Fridays)
Last Saturday, I was a guest at the iFabbo conference. I didn’t get to stay long, but I did enjoy the time I spent there. So while I’m there waiting in line a very nice gentleman approached me with a VIP wristband that was meant to get me some free adult beverages later. Can you […]
It’s Not the 70s Anymore, You Can Totally Get Good Coffee from a Kiosk
Let it be known that I like coffee. Let it be known that I am a bit of a coffee snob, not as much as some, but enough to not find just any old cup of coffee acceptable. I prefer fresh ground coffee, freshly brewed. If it has been sitting around on a warmer for […]
Halloween and Día de los Muertos Got Married at Dollar General
‘Tis the season for goblins and ghouls, calacas and candies, cafecito or cocoa, and a whole lot of creativity and whimsy. I love it! Can I just also say how much I love that Día de los Muertos is getting almost as much play as Halloween? Viva la raza! I’m bicultural all the way, baby […]
Just Another Day in the Mission District (Sundays In My City)
Mission District San Francisco, CA I showed you mine, now show me yours. Share your city/town/suburb/you name it! Think of this as a photography carnival or photography meme (with or without words) that not only lets you share your part of the world, but lets you visit other parts of the world virtually. If you […]

After all, who knows me better than me? The following interview took place in my home while my husband showered and […]
