"I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagi...

To unassuming passersby, we looked like we were taking an innocent Sunday stroll around the neighborhood. However, nobody saw the scissors we brought along with us. We were actually on a super secret...

One of my favorite things to do when I have nothing to do is to take a stroll down Cedros Design District in Solana Beach. Not only is Cedros Ave. home to my favorite music venue in San Diego, the Be...
What to do when you have avocados in the fridge that are on the verge of becoming over-ripe? You could make guacamole I guess. Or... you could make shrimp ceviche instead! Its so easy to make, delici...
