Images from that time I didn’t go hiking at Lands End. I have a daughter who loves to hike and one that doesn’t, which is why I ended up staying home with the non-hiking kid while my hubby took the other one to Lands End to do what she loves to do. They were kind […]

Wednesday Wishes
Hello and HAPPY NEW YEAR! This is my first Wednesday wishes post of the year and I’m excited, so let’s get the wishin’ on. Here’s what I’m wishing for this week… For myself: I really want the four of us (hubby, the girls and myself) to go to Hawaii in August for a wedding and […]
Rigolo Café (Sundays In My City)
Breakfast in bed is swell, but so is breakfast at a café. Last weekend, we headed over to Rigolo, which is kind of on the border of Presidio Heights and Laurel Heights in San Francisco. The grub was good and the service was friendly. Rigolo 3465 California Street @ Laurel San Francisco, CA 94118 415-876-7777 Do […]

Wednesday Wishes
It’s the last Wednesday of the year and I’m ready to make some wishes. I suggest you join me, otherwise how will the Universe know what you want? Here’s what I’m wishing for this week… For myself: I’d like to get a grip on practicing loving kindness toward myself. I get so upset with myself […]
I Am All About Mexican Christmas (Sundays In My City)
Those little cuties are my daughters. They are wearing matching outfits that their abuela sent them for the holidays. I doctored the photo and put masks on their faces because blogging is my choice, not theirs. I couldn’t resist sharing this picture with you because they put the “feliz” in my Navidad. Being Mexican, I […]
The Flying Chancla Report: 2016 the Year That Sucked and the Tweets That Prove It
Hola Chulas y Chulos! I don’t know about you, but my chancla and I are so over 2016. We were over it a long time ago because as far as we are concerned 2016 sucked big time. Now, I am not normally a negative person or at least I try my best not to project […]
Wednesday Wishes
I wish for things regularly because wishing changes my perspective. It helps me go from a “woe is me” kind of place to a “what can be” kind of place and many times my wishes come true and the ones that don’t simply weren’t meant to be and that’s OK. As always, I invite you […]

Last Minute Gifts Under $5, $10 and $15
This is a sponsored collaboration with JCPenney. All opinions are mine. Can we all pretty please agree that holiday gift giving is NOT supposed to be stressful to us or our bank accounts? It’s supposed to be about expressing thoughtfulness and a joy worth giving no matter how much or how little we spend. I’ve […]
