La Paz Mexico
Tags: Vacation
A little over a month ago, I had no idea La Paz Mexico existed. I put a rush on my passport and now have such fond memories of this beautiful part of the country and am thrilled to share with you the highlights of my weekend. A group of food and travel bloggers were whisked off to the Costa Baja Resort and Spa for a fun filled weekend.
The travel was intense, but the memories that were made were worth it. My one regret is not bringing my big camera. I was unsure whether or not to bring it and wished I would have. My point and shoot did pretty good, but you'll see some borrowed pics from my good friend Amanda who was smarter than I 🙂 For the record, I felt completely safe in Mexico the entire time of our trip.
Scroll down and I'll show you everything 🙂

The group arrived Thursday August 25th to the resort. This is a photo of the lobby. It was open and airy with beautiful views of the pool, beach and marina.

When we checked in, we headed off to our rooms. Amanda snapped this gorgeous photo. It was nice with a view of the pool, giant glass door shower, flat screen tv and comfy bed.
Here is the pool area. Nice and inviting.
Friday morning we had breafast right down the beach from our resort, this is The Beach Club. We LOVED spending time here. It was just gorgeous as you can tell in the photos.
Another shot of the pool at The Beach Club. This infinity pool was so pretty. This is definitely a place I would like to hang with my family all day.
Right across from the restaurant where we had breakfast were these fun little cabanas. You can rent these for no extra charge. How inviting does this look?!
Here is the front view of The Beach Club Restaurant. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had a little of everything during our trip….and it was all delicious.
Another view of The Beach Club. We had the whole place to ourselves for breakfast.
Here's Amanda, Lisa, me and Katie enjoying our breakfast. We had a lovely table right by a waterfall behind us. So relaxing.
No kidding, the best fresh squeezed orange juice I've ever had. Wish I had a glass right now 🙂
Friday morning after breakfast we met in the marina to get ready for our snorkeling adventure to Isla Espiritu Santo. This was by far the highlight of my trip.
Just sailing off, passing beautiful boats and yachts.
Getting our sunscreen on and enjoying zipping through the water in our party boat.
I am still in awe of how crystal blue the waters were. It's hard to believe it until you see it for yourself. Stunning.
Couldn't help but snap a photo of the fish swimming all around our boat. I have never seen water this clear.
This was the area where the sea lions hung out. They chose a great home 🙂
Love this.

Here we are getting ready to snorkel. The water was perfect. Lots of little fish all around us. The sealions were on the rocky area behind us.
Lori and I. I am ready to go snorkeling again. My boys would love this.
Photo via Amanda
On our way back , we found a group of dolphins that enjoyed racing the boat and jumping over our waves. Adorable! Love this photo Amanda captured. We were all in awe!
Photo via Amanda
There they go. It was a fun game for them to jump through our waves. Little cutie pies!

Saturday morning we headed to Todos Santos to the Hotel California. Very bright and full of personality.
Here is the lobby of Hotel California. Loved the colors.
Walking to the back of the hotel. Great seating areas.
Nice sparkling pool area.

It was time for lunch! We had a Mexican feast, all delicious.
Lori, me and Katie waiting patiently for our lunch 🙂

We started with chips, guacamole and salsa along with some fish tacos. Delish!

We also had chicken verde enchiladas and a chocolate truffle cake for dessert.

Bloggers I spent the weekend with:
Rachelle Lucas, Lisa Overman, Katie Goodman, Amanda Bottoms, Katja Presnal, Dian Emery, Mardi Michels, Gary Arndt, Lori Lange and myself 🙂
A big thanks to the Mexico Tourism Board for having us and to the PR folks who worked so hard to show us a good time. Had a great time in LA Paz. Will treasure the memories forever!
Disclosure: This was an all expense paid trip via Mexico Tourism, thoughts and remarks are my own.
The Commander's Palace Dining Experience
One of the highlights of my time in New Orleans was going to Commander's Palace for Brunch Sunday morning. It's hard to explain the ambiance of the restaurant, it's nothing like you've ever seen before, or at least that I have ever seen. A long line of waiters lined the halls and greeted us as we walked through the door and balloons were centerpieces at every table. You also get a live band that plays at your own table. The food was…..unforgettable. Scroll down, you'll see what I mean.
So, here we are just walking off the bus, snapping photos like crazy as we did at everything 🙂 To the right is Adam, Matt and Brooke looking great!
Here are those waiters that greeted us at the door and the balloons at each table. So fun and festive. It was also a treat to see some of the local women in their fancy Sunday hats as well. So different from what I am used to.
We got to walk through the giant kitchen to see all the kitchen staff hard at work.
Tables were placed by big windows with gorgeous views of lush green trees.
Alright onto the food we enjoyed at Commander's. We started with a single fried Oyster with Caviar and the Brandy Milk Punch (minus the Brandy) Both were a dream, especially that milk. It tasted like melted vanilla ice cream, yum!
Marla had that gorgeous salad and I ordered trio of soups that included a turtle soup. That was another first for me 🙂
Here were the guys from the band. Loved them!
Here were some of the brunch entrees that came out. Aren't they gorgeous?
Amanda ordered this shrimp that was probably the best shrimp I have tasted. Want it again!
I ordered the White Chocolate Blueberry Pancakes…..they were as good as they look.

Amanda, Marla and me at our table, love these gals!
Dessert was a dream. Here is the Cookie Dough Bread Pudding.
The Pralines dessert and the Strawberry Shortcake. Both delicious.
The cheesecake was so photogenic and tasted even better.
This Bread Pudding Souffle was my favorite and I have the recipe for you from the restaurant! Enjoy friends!
Recipe by Commander's Palace, New Orleans
Butter, for greasing pan and ramekins
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch nutmeg
3 medium eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups New Orleans French bread, cut into 1-inch cubes (see *Cook's Note)
1/3 cup raisins
Whisky Sauce
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup bourbon
9 medium egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup sugar
*Cook's Note: New Orleans French bread is very light and tender. If another bread is used that is too dense, it will soak up all the custard and the recipe won't work.
Make the bread pudding: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease an 8-inch square baking pan. Combine sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Beat in the eggs until smooth, and then work in the heavy cream. Add the vanilla, stir to combine, and then the bread cubes. Let stand so that bread soaks up custard.
Place the raisins in the greased pan. Top with the bread mixture, which prevents the raisins from burning. Bake for approximately 25 to 30 minutes or until the pudding has a golden brown color and is firm to the touch. If a toothpick inserted in the pudding comes out clean, it is done. The mixture should be moist, not runny or dry. Cool to room temperature.
Make the whiskey sauce: Place cream in a small saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Whisk cornstarch and water together, and add to cream while whisking. Bring to a boil. Whisk and let for a few seconds, taking care not to burn the mixture on the bottom. Remove from heat. Stir in the sugar and the bourbon. Taste to make sure the sauce has a thick consistency, a sufficiently sweet taste, and a good bourbon flavor. Cool to room temperature.
Make the meringue: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Butter 6 (6-ounce) ramekins and set aside. Make certain that the bowl and whisk are completely clean. The egg whites should be completely free of yolk, and they will better if they are at room temperature. This dish needs a good, stiff meringue. In the bowl of an electric mixer (or in a large bowl with a hand mixer), whip egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add the sugar gradually, and continue whipping until shiny and thick. Test with a clean spoon. If the whites stand up stiff, like shaving cream when you pull out the spoon, the meringue is ready. Do not over-whip, or the whites will break down and the souffle will not work.
In a large bowl, break half of the bread pudding into pieces using your hands or a spoon. Gently fold in 1/4 of the meringue, being careful not to lose the air in the whites. Add a portion of this base to each of the ramekins. Place the remaining bread pudding in the bowl, break into pieces, and carefully fold in the rest of the meringue. Top off the souffles with this lighter mixture. Smooth and shape tops with a spoon into a dome over the ramekin rim.
Bake immediately for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately. Using a spoon, at the table, poke a hole in the top of each souffle, and pour the room temperature whiskey sauce inside the souffle.
Have a great day, I'll be dreaming of Commander's Palace 🙂
Loving New Orleans

What a great weekend I had in New Orleans last week. I was fortunate to spend 4 days with a group of bloggers and the LA Seafood Board. We ate our way through the best restaurants and met with seafood fisherman to get a hands on look at how much love and work goes into their jobs. A real eye opening experience, I have so much respect for all of them.
Let me take you through a peek at the adventures we went on day 1.
We were so lucky to stay at The Bourbon Orleans Hotel, right in the middle of the French Quarter.
Photo via Marla Meridith
We had a lovely gift bag of sweets from Sucre' Bakery Boutique and a giant arrangement of Zatarains products waiting in our rooms. How gorgeous is this?
Last Thursday evening we dined at the Bistro at Maison De Ville. The food was delicious, I tried my first set of frog legs. So cliche, but yes tasted like chicken 🙂
I am not sure what I will do without Camillia's Grill. Amanda and I enjoyed their charming diner 3 times in 4 days. No kidding, they had the best breakfast Western Omelet I have ever had. See photos below. We spotted their secret ingredient. Finely chopped ham and peppers sauteed in LOTS of butter before the eggs get poured over. Worth every single calorie.
Here is the inside diner. Love Love Loved it 🙂
Here are the guys hard at work, they were as sweet as the food was delicious. It's a must do if you are in New Orleans.
The photos don't even do these dishes justice. We split a side of pancakes and some grits too. Love!
After breakfast on Friday, we headed to the Louisiana Seafood Festival, lots to see and even more to eat. I got a kick out of the gator offerings. You don't see this in Orange County 🙂 Matt and Adam tried the gator sausage and everyone raved about it, guess Mr. Gator is mighty tasty.
We also had front row seats to chef demo's at the festival. Talented local Chef's prepared beautiful seafood dishes and shared. How good does that shrimp and coconut look that Chef John Folse is holding?
Here we are getting interviewed by the LA Seafood camera man. Not sure where our faces will show up. Matt and Amanda doing a fine job on camera 🙂

Marla, Me and Gaby taking pics of the gorgeous chef dishes. Always snapping photos aren't we?!
Ahhh, the ever so famous Cafe Du Monde. Before I went to New Orleans, EVERYONE said you must get beignets from Cafe Du Monde. I don't drink coffee, but I hear their coffee is a must order as well. It's a small outside coffee shop with powdered sugar all over the floor. You can see why by the looks of those beignets. Very charming indeed and how can you go wrong with a fried piece of goodness covered in powdered sugar?
We also had the pleasure of watching cooking demo's from Chef Ann at the New Orleans School of Cooking. The food was outstanding!
On the left is Ann the cooking instructor who was the cutest sweetest grandma you'll ever meet. On the right is Dan serving up the grub. We could come up and help ourselves….and even have seconds 🙂

Maggy and I snapping some serious photos, lol!
Photo via Amanda
Me, Maggy and Amanda at the cooking school 🙂 We enjoyed Corn and Crab Bisque, Crawfish Etouffee, Banana's Foster and Homemade Pralines….which I have the recipe for you!!
Recipe by The New Orleans School of Cooking
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup milk
6 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla
1. Combine all ingredients and bring to a "softball stage" (238-240 degrees F), stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
2. Stir until mixture thickens (again stirring constantly), becomes creamy and cloudy, and pecans stay suspended in mixture. Spoon out on buttered waxed paper, aluminum foil or parchment paper. When using waxed paper, be sure to buffer with newspaper underneath, as hot wax will transfer to whatever is beneath.
Note: To roast pecans, bake them on a sheet pan at 275 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, until slightly browned and fragrant.
Options: Praline sauce (add 1/2 cup corn syrup to mixture). Chocolate covered praline candy. Flavored pralines (chocolate, coffee, brandy, etc.)
Makes 1-50 pralines depending on size
Stay tuned for more New Orleans Adventures and more recipes!

I was so excited to bring one of these little Oreo Stuffed Cookie Jars to Amanda last week during out trip to Atlanta for the BlogHer Food Conference. I wrapped it nicely in my suitcase and when I opened my suitcase my little jar was broken!! I was devastated, but luckily we had plenty of treats over the weekend that made up for it 🙂
It's basically the same recipe as my Oreo Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies just layered nicely in little jars.
2 sticks softened butter
3/4 Cup packed light brown sugar
1 Cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 Tablespoon pure vanilla
3 1/2 Cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oz bag chocolate chips
1 bag Oreo Cookies, I used the double stuff 🙂
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a stand or electric mixer cream butter and sugars until well combined. Add in eggs and vanilla until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips until just combined. Using a cookie scoop a large scoop of dough into the bottom of each mason jar. Layer with Oreo cookies, then cookie dough, repeating until you've reached the top of the jar, leaving 1 inch free. Bake cookies 15 to 17 minutes or until cookies are baked to your liking. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Serve with a tall glass of milk, enjoy!
Here are some photos from my trip to Atlanta 🙂

Atlanta was great. Here is the view from our room. It was quite stunning. There is nothing better than a conference full of food bloggers. We did not waste any time, shortly after we arrived it was time to get ready for our first party. The ever so talented Susan from She's Becoming Doughmesstic hosted a lovely party at the Hard Rock Cafe. She is superwoman if you ask me, really was a perfect night to chit chat with friends, eat some good food and talk with brands. I regret not taking many photos this trip, so I've borrowed my friends 🙂

Here we are just leaving the party with some great women 🙂

Here is my sweet friend Amy from Mom Advice. She is one of the sweetest most genuine women I have met. I wish we were in the same town!

Friday afternoon, Amanda and I skipped out of the 2nd half of the conference and went to some fun eats in Atlanta. First was Taqueria del Sol, which had some of the best tacos I have ever had. Next was Star Provisions, the treats you see in the above photo. Their bakery was gorgeous and that Homemade S'mores Bar was incredible. I must re-create it!
Photo via Lori
Here we are Friday night getting ready for the "Pork Crawl" an event put on by the National Pork Board and Jaden of Steamy Kitchen. Talk about a night of over eating! We were treated to 3 beautiful restaurants where the chefs created 3 course meals all with pork. It was unforgettable and I still need to work off all of that food!
Here we are in one of the biggest limos I have ever seen. Left: Lori, Angie, me, Jaden, Sandy, Georgia and Marla

Lunch Saturday afternoon was a real treat. All of these women are so incredible. I feel so lucky to have spent the afternoon with all of them!

Sweet Shoppers NYC Day 1
Photo via Amanda
What a great time I had in NYC last week despite the wicked cold! No kidding, this was the first time in my entire 34 years of age that I have ever witnessed falling snow. It was quite the experience for me, it's beautiful! I prefer enjoying it from a warm hotel room, but what the heck, I was only in NY for a couple of days, so I didn't let it slow me down….much 🙂
I love this photo above that Amanda snapped of us Left: Me, Susan from She's Becoming Doughmesstic, Maria from Two Peas and Their Pod and Lori from Recipe Girl. We really were just cruising through the streets of NY hunting for the best bakeries around.
Fist up was this adorable little bakery called Bouchon Bakery. I wasn't expecting much since it was just inside a mall but boy did it prove me wrong. The vanilla macaron photographed a few photos down was probably one of the best things I have ever eaten, hands down!
Here's the homemade Oreo Cookie, it was just so so if I am being honest.
A nice big Bouchon chocolate chip cookie. Doesn't touch Levain's cookies, but this one was good.
Photo via Amanda
Here is the ever so fabulous Vanilla Macaron from Bouchon that I will never forget. It was soft and cake like, almost like a cream filled cupcake which is probably why I fell in love with it so much 🙂
The inside goodness of the vanilla macaron, drooling just thinking about it.
This is what we had left….how embarrassing. We devoured these treats.

Such a fun photo that was taken with Amanda's camera in Central Park. Left: Me, Maria, Lori and Amanda.

Here's another shot with the same gals swapped with Susan on the right 🙂 Susan happened to be in NY the same time we were there, how fun is that?
Photo via Amanda
Amanda and I….we were due for an updated photo together 🙂
We walked through this snowy weather to find our sweet shops. Are we nuts?!
Couldn't pass up stopping in Magnolia Bakery. Such pretty cupcakes that happen to be mighty tasty too.
Magnolia employee hard at work 🙂
This was quite fun, we wanted to capture the yellow taxi in the background of the photo. Luckily they passed by every couple seconds.
The berry crumble and chocolate peanut butter pop were incredible. Actually the red velvet cheesecake and vanilla cupcake were great too.
Photo via Amanda
We popped in Alice's Tea Cup for a few minutes. Cute little shop.
Ahhhh, finally back to Levain Bakery. This tiny little shop produces some crazy good treats. Go find them next time you are in NYC!
Deciding what to order 🙂

I think Lori said it best on twitter about this photo….this is what happens when a bunch of food bloggers get together 🙂 Let the photo shoot begin.

We got to meet up with Maggie from Three Many Cooks for lunch at Patsy's Pizza. This was such a great day. Patsy's has a killer salad. I just remembered how much I loved it. Left: Susan, Lori, Amanda, Me, Maria and Maggie
After lunch we strolled on over to Momofuku's for some unusual desserts such as crack pie, birthday cake truffles, compost cookies and cereal milk ice cream. They were all…..really interesting. I'll leave it at that. My favorite was probably the birthday cake truffles.

We kind of took over the upstairs library for our hang out/dessert eating session.

Walked back to our hotel through Time Square. I don't ever get tired of this gorgeous city. The lights are unbelievable.

After our cupcake adventures we had a fun pampering night with the folks from I Can't Believe it's Not Butter who provided us with the trip. We then had a PJ party in Amanda's room.
Stay tuned for day 2 where we spend the morning at Butter Restaurant, met Chef Alex Guarnaschelli and saw Kim Cattrall during more adventures with ICBINB.
I had an incredible opportunity to go to the McCormick Gourmet Kitchens last week with some other wonderful bloggers: Jaden of Steamy Kitchen, Shauna of Gluten Free Girl and Nicole of Pinch My Salt. I am really excited to work with these talented women and McCormick Gourmet.
We all met for dinner where the Chef mixed up some drinks and prepared a gorgeous dinner. After not eating all day from traveling this was quite the treat. I snapped some photos of our time with McCormick Gourmet, take a look 🙂
When we arrived to the McCormick Kitchens we were greeted by the lovely McCormick staff. Chef Len fed us some delicious appetizers. Tale a look below 🙂
Here is our menu for the evening.
Curried Chicken and Mushroom Spring Rolls. INCREDIBLE! Will definitely be making these again.
Marinated Shrimp with Mango and Radishes. Perfect little appetizer.
Dirty Martini Steak Kabobs and Salad. What a creative recipe for kabobs, full of flavor. Loved these.
Sweet and Smoky "Pork and Beans." I think we all had a few helpings of this one 🙂
Cheesecake Tart with Popcorn Crust and Berries. This cheesecake caused quite the uproar, not kidding. The flavor combinations here are unreal. This will be made at my house very soon.
The next morning, we met for breakfast and enjoyed: Tomato Zucchini Frittata, Cinnamon Apple Nut Muffins, Pepita Pumpkin Bread.
How good does this look?!
…and this?
This was one of my favorite parts of the trip…..along with the incredible meals, but learning about the history of the McCormick Spices was so fascinating. Made me appreciate what goes into each jar I see at the store.
We also got to sample and smell a variety of spices. The vanilla test was the most interesting. If you've ever doubted buying pure vanilla….don't. It wasn't even a comparison when sampled side by side.
Later in the day, we each whipped up 2 simple recipes that used a regular spice and then a roasted spice to sample and see the difference in taste. I had a creamy cinnamon dip that I wanted to bottle up and eat with a spoon. It was delicious!
Making my dip!
The other ladies Jaden, a sweet McCormick rep, Shauna and Nicole making their recipes 🙂
It was time for lunch and talk about a feast. This salmon was one of the best salmon I have ever had. Will be making it for my family. Smoked Paprika Roasted Salmon
Will be making these too! Harvest Vegetables with Roasted Ginger & Cumin
This was another recipe that we couldn't stop eating, so delicious and I think it was unanimous that we will all be making these ribs! Chipotle Cinnamon Baby Back Ribs
As if we hadn't had enough food, we ended our meal with these cute "cup" cakes with a bite. Loved the heat that came through with each bite . Mexican Hot Chocolate "Cup" Cakes

San Diego Sweet Shoppin' with Amanda
What can I say, Amanda and I were at it again…..hunting down the best bakeries in the city. The city of choice this time was San Diego. Lucky for me, San Diego is only about an hour away so I drove up to meet Amanda where we started our day at one of the best cupcake shops I have been to, no lie! It is called Elizabethan Desserts Bakery. It is tucked inside a quaint nursery and flower shop that is flat out adorable.
Get a load of these gorgeous mini cupcakes! We couldn't resist so we ordered one of every kind. Can you blame us? With names such as Bees Knees, Chocolate Toffee and Monkey Business we were drooling at the counter.
More shots of cupcake goodness 🙂
Isn't the rose one adorable?! It is called "Plain Jane." The red velvet with cream cheese frosting to the left was one of my favorites hands down.
The Mustachio is so darn cute we were afraid to cut into his mustache. The Pistachio butter cream was killer!
This is the "Black Beauty" It really was the most photogenic one, pretty tasty too.
The Ho Daddy Chocolate was the first one we cut into and it could quite possibly be the best chocolate cupcake I've had.
After a full belly of cupcakes we decided to walk off a couple calories in the flower shop where the sweet owner took some photos of us.
We needed MORE walking so we walked around La Jolla Beach which was perfectly beachy 🙂
After the beach, we went to this great lunch/gelato spot called Pappalecco. My sandwich was so good I am tempted to make a drive back out to San Diego very soon!
Here's Amanda's Pizza 🙂 YUM!
Later in the afternoon we went in to the very fancy "Extraordinary" Desserts.
Get a load of these gorgeous desserts! We spent a very long time photographing their beauty, that was worth the pretty pricetag of these desserts 🙂
The Dulce de Leche Cake…it was featured on Food Network's The Best Thing I Ever Ate. It was my favorite of all of our choices.
Amanda ordered this lovely Strawberry Shortcake. Gorgeous huh?
The Pots de Creme was so photogenic but if I am being honest, was just so so 🙁
I am a Creme Brulee fanatic, I try it about everywhere I go that offers and this one gets a 6 out of 10. Pretty, creamy but lacked something I can't quite put my finger on.
LOVED watching these little birds finish up what was left on the table in front of us. They are no dummies!
Last on our list was Babycakes. An adorable little eatery/bakery with lots to offer. I HAD to take my order home otherwise I may have busted at the seams but my boys and husband devoured these, so I am assuming they were killer!
They are quite lovely aren't they? See all of their Gourmet Cupcake selections on their website 🙂
Cute little box to go. Thanks for peeking into our day of indulgence!
Be sure to take a peek at Amanda's post of our trip too 🙂
It's always a blast when Amanda and I get together, LOVE it. Stay tuned for more sweet traveling 🙂
Dole Food & Wellness Blogger Summit
What a great day yesterday was at the Dole Event. My buddy Marla from Family Fresh Cooking and I were picked up by a driver at the crack of dawn and headed out to The Four Season's Westlake Village. I want to take my family back to this hotel, it was gorgeous!
We started our morning with a "Breakfast for Performance" Demo and enjoyed a delicious and healthy meal 🙂
Mmmm, I am not a cottage cheese fan usually, but take a look at that trifle.
My blogging buddies digging in 🙂
One of the highlights of my trip was meeting my beautiful friend Susan from "She's Becoming Doughmestic." I LOVE her to pieces and wish she lived next door. We need to be baking neighbors 🙂
Doesn't get much better than spending time at a beautiful place with some of your best buds 🙂 Love all of these ladies. Photo: Marla, Rachael, Me, Amanda, Susan and Maria.
Here we are at our Welcome Presentation where we learned about "The Wellness World of Dole" and listened to a keynote panel discussion on "The Latest Food, Nutrition and Wellness Trends." Great information here. I was reminded…..Eat more fruits and Veggies Jen! I need that reminder often 🙂
On our way to some product demo's. Had to snap a picture of this gorgeous chandelier 🙂
It was time to get our sampling on. Think a great day at costco but even better 🙂 We had these delicious jello fruit cups and baked bananas.
Got to nibble on all the lastest Dole goodies and lots of salad.
A little chat time before getting the grand tour of the Dole Offices. We've got Amanda, Ann Marie, Jennifer and Maria here 🙂
The Dole offices are beautiful, get a load of this centerpiece I wanted to stick in my bag for home.
Love this!
Checking out the Dole kitchen area. Right photo: Marla, Rachael, Ann-Marie and Sandy
We enjoyed lunch at the Dole Cafeteria where their staff gets daily healthy menu items to choose from. If that's not cool enough they get to eat outside by this gorgeous waterfall. I could get used to that 🙂
Heading to get my facial and Nutrition Consultation….had to stop and smell the roses. Ok, I am a geek.
photo from google
Another highlight of my day was enjoying one of the best facials I have ever had. It was a dream.
Now, time to get ready for dinner.
Shaina from "Food For My Family" gets the "You are Awesome" Award. She was a rockstar on our team that had to prepare an entree with salmon, lentils, cranberries and spinach. It turned out beautiful. Thanks Shaina!!
Judges….our dish won for taste, but lacked "presentation." Lol! Oh well 🙂
I happen to think it looks delish!
Overall, this was a whirlwind day packed with great information and lots of salad. I repeat, lots of salad. Loved every minute of it! Thank you Dole for putting on a beautiful event!

Reviewer: BloodyMary, 25-34 on Treatment for 6 months to less than 1 year (Patient)
Ease of Use
After my second child I decided to get an iud as birth control. My doctor recommended Skyla. So that's what I got! The insertion doesn't take long but it's not exactly a lovely experience but don't let me scare you because it was truly bearable. You will feel pressure and a couple pinches. I didn't take any medicine prior to my visit, it was okay. I had slight cramping but noth ... Show Full Comment

Ease of Use
When it was inserted I had major cramping after. I then spotted for about a week then a few weeks later I had a period and it was all downhill from there. I was constantly in pain, always spotting, and never felt good. 3 months in I decided that something really was not right so I went in to have it removed. My doctor argued with me and told me I hadn't let my body adjust long enough and she c ... Show Full Comment

Like most others I had horrible insertion experience. I went for Mirena but my cervix opening was too small so I got switched to Skyla mid procedure which I never wouldve done in the first place. I bled for 30 days. Worst cramps of my life. When the bleeding stopped I spotted for months especially after sex.

It's now monday and I had Skyla inserted on Friday. I was supposed to get mirena inserted but when they sounded my uterus it was too small :/ I've read a lot of reviews about how much the sounding hurts- but it didn't for me! I asked them to sound it again to double check that my uterus was too small for Mirena (I really wanted 5 years of coverage instead of 3). I've never ... Show Full Comment
Reviewer: KMM, 25-34 Female on Treatment for 1 to less than 2 years (Patient)
Ease of Use
I had all kinds of problems with this IUD. Abdominal pain near right ovary, headaches, my hair fell out in clumps, depression, and gained 30 lbs over a year and a half while having it. Also, mysteriously the cells on my cervix changed and I had to have a LEEP procedure done which was horrible.

Why Should I Get in a Group?
At The Village Church, the context for community is groups. A weekend worship service here is sizable, so it's hard in such a setting to form deep friendships or to be challenged by another brother or sister who knows you well and wants God's best for you. You're not likely to stumble into deep relationship there.

Details of Colorado Rockies Phoenix Tickets and the Ticket Luck value
The Colorado Rockies were established in 1993 in order to cater to the growing demand for an MLB team from the region. The Rockies take their name owing to the Rocky Mountains which are close to Colorado. The team is based out of Denver, Colorado. The home games of the Rockies are played in Coors Field. However, while the stadium was being constructed, the Rockies shared their home ground with the Denver Broncos for a while, at the Mile High Stadium. The Rockies are placed in the National League where they play in the Western division of the MLB.
Need was felt for a baseball franchise
Prior to the creation of the Rockies, there had been widespread interest in baseball. This had been created due to the exploits of the Minor league baseball teams such as Denver Bears and later on, Denver Zephyrs. In order to cater to the growing demand for a major league franchise, the Rockies were created in 1993. The team has been a welcome addition to the MLB. In a short span of time, it has managed to win over quite a number of fans on the basis of its exciting style of play. The hallmark of all Rockies teams over the years has been their self belief and fearlessness when taking over bigger and stronger teams. With three World Series appearances and a National League pennant already under their belt, this is one team that knows how to win games.
Memorable purple patch
One of the most memorable achievements in the relatively short history of the franchise happened in their NL winning season of 2007. The Rockies almost took the whole league by surprise, coming out of nowhere to win 21 out of their last 22 games. Fans are hopeful for more of the same this year from their team. Buy Colorado Rockies Phoenix tickets to see if their wishes come true.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q:Are seat numbers written on rockies phoenix tickets?
A:Colorado Rockies Phoenix AZ Tickets do not have numbers on them as the holding brokers do not allow us that information.

Four in five Australian women drink during pregnancy as health warnings 'unclear'
- From: Herald Sun
- June 21, 2010
FOUR in five Australian women drink during pregnancy, research reveals.
While most mothers-to-be had a low alcohol intake, one-in-five drank moderately, and a small number drank heavily, the study found.
Lead author Jennifer Powers, of the University of Newcastle, said there was a lack of clear evidence of the risks of low to moderate alcohol intake during pregnancy and this left women in "no person's land" on the issue.
A gap in research, and changes in official guidelines over the years, saw many women opt to drink through their pregnancy though typically at low levels, Ms Powers said.
"While it's totally clear a lot of alcohol is bad for the baby ... there is no evidence of harm for small amounts of alcohol, but neither is there evidence there's no harm," she said.
Women and health practitioners were confused by official guidelines, which changed in 2001 from recommending zero alcohol intake to a low intake, and then back to no alcohol again in 2009.
There was an overwhelming need for research to clearly establish the risks associated with different levels of alcohol intake during pregnancy, she said.
"It is important that the large group of women who drink alcohol at low to moderate levels receive clear and consistent messages from health professionals."
She had been surprised by how many women drank, even though for many it was just an odd drink here and there.
The level of alcohol intake to cause fetal alcohol syndrome, which resulted in stunted growth and intellectual ability, was not clear cut, but it was basically high levels of alcohol and often, she said.
The research, published in today's Medical Journal of Australia, analysed the drinking habits of more than 1200 young mothers surveyed as part of a major longitudinal study.
One group of women were pregnant before the guidelines changed in 2001, and a second group were first pregnant afterwards.
Of those first pregnant after 2001 63 per cent had a low alcohol intake, 19 per cent had a moderate intake, while one per cent was high and 17 per cent abstained.
A low intake was generally classed as less than seven drinks a week, while moderate was seven to 14 drinks a week.
Researchers found the change in official guidelines on drinking during pregnancy had little effect on women's habits.

Is this a suprize to anybody?? Government will go into fit over dangers to society such as "bad internet sites" and keep bashing on smokers... yet everybody ignores the biggest elephent in the room. Boooze. Australia is a words drunkard, everybody knows it yet nobody speaks about it. Alcohol puts more strain on our heath system than smoking, it puts more people in jail than drugs.. yet nobody speaks against it.
Craig of Perth Posted at 1:49 PM June 21, 2010
We have had 2 babies in the past couple of years and my wife continued to drink during both pregnancies. "Drink" in this case was usually around half a glass of low alcohol beer, 2-3 times a week.. maybe a total of 1 standard drink a week. End result is two very healthy happy children and a mum who's maintained her sanity. I accept that "drinking" is not advisable during pregnancy, but this needs to be weighed in against the mothers health as well. No one likes to go cold turkey, even if its just giving up chocolate for lent, but 9 months of stress, trying to maintain at least part of a social life and having another child at your feet - the odd half a glass here and there will have a greater physiological benefit than physically harmful one. "Low intake" is probably ok, if the definition of "Low" (less than 7 drinks per week) is adjusted downwards a little.

These entities are a form of "organized crime" in that they follow data that they know might be incorrect in real time, but correct in terms of the last officially recorded data.
Such is the case with me when I bought a used Chrysler van at North County Ford in Vista on 05/08/2011. I sold them my old 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan for $1K trade-in value. I signed a Release of Liability form that the dealership mailed in promptly.
On about 06/24/11, I received a notice of Toll Evasion - Payment Request from South Bay Expressway for an astronomical amount and from a van I no longer owned or drove since 05/10/11.
Then two more violation notices arrived!
I swung into action and went to the dealership and told them what had happened. They gave me another Release Of Liability form and I took it to the DMV and waited in line to see someone. The young lady told me that the original release of liability form had not been recorded yet in Sacramento and she had the nerve to say that it might have been lost in the mail.
It really takes the cake when a DMV employee blames their ineptitude on the USPS!
She gave the form a dated and coded stamp and made two copies for me to send to South Bay Expressway.
Today, I went back to the dealership and they printed copies of the transaction trail of when I sold it to them and when it ws sold to subsequent parties.
So far, there are a total of 12 South Bay Expressway violations outstanding with more on the way because this individual has decided to completely disregard the toll booth on almost a daily basis!
What a nightmare! I am having to prepare a packet of documents for each and every violation!
I am driving down there in person tomorrow and if they give me any difficulties, I will take all documents to the office of Congressman Daryl Issa and let his energetic staff scrutinize them.
The person who bought my old van is in no hurry to register it in his name since the sticker was renewed in March.
The DMV is so far behind that South Bay Expressway is relying on information that they know might not be current, but will only accept official documentation provided by that very same inefficient entity in order to stop the collection process they already have underway!
South Bay Expressway has a limited number of days within which you must respond with proper DMV documentation. If the DMV is already hopelessly behind, then how are they going to respond to your document request in time to meet South Bay Expressway's deadline? And on top of that, you have to pay them $20 for that documentation!
Now how is that for using the law for INTIMIDATING and EXTRACTING revenue in the shadows of inneficiency and ineptitude?!
One private sector beast feeding off of a much larger public sector beast and a body of laws that won't flex to fit the new sluggish reality of an overwhelming workload for an under organized DMV.
I am quite anxious to blow the lid off of this symbiotic relationship and to encourage car dealerships to have their customers sit down at the dealerships and file release of liability forms on line.
Meanwhile, South Bay Expressway needs to begin accepting other forms of documentation other than just that supplied by an ever increasingly innefficient and hopelessly behind DMV!

Resolution of Problem
AUTHOR: Buddy - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, July 10, 2011POSTED: Sunday, July 10, 2011
The staff at the South Bay Expressway office were completely professional and courteous, but the only source document they accepted was the copy of the release of liability form that the Oceanside DMV date stamped and made a copy of for me.
Even though I had different source documents that show who the current owner is, North County Ford will now be receiving all of the toll violations until their own release of liability form gets processed in Sacramento OR they send someone down to the Oceanside DMV to wait in line and walk it through so that a clerk can enter it in the computer data base and stamp it with a date code and give North County Ford a copy so that North County Ford can make several more copies to send for each toll violation they will be receiving since the driver of my old van is blowing through the toll booth at least once a day!
And then it will be the auto auction company's turn to receive the toll violation notices until they expedite a release of liability form because the one they mailed in within five days by law, will not be processed in Sacramento for at least two months because that is approximately how far behind they are in Sacramento and getting farther behind with each passing day.

PERIPHERALS; Angles Beyond Books
By L. R. SHANNON
Published: October 1, 1991
MOST adults quickly forget their high-school geometry, and good riddance. But we use a kind of intuitive geometry all the time, even when estimating the angle required to get a paper ball to the wastebasket.
An angle-estimating exercise is one component of What's My Angle?, a geometry program from Davidson and Associates of Torrance, Calif., intended for students 14 years old and older. It covers, the company says, a full year's geometry curriculum. There are five parts:
* The Geoboard is an electronic simulation of a wooden board with evenly spaced nails in it. Rubber bands create shapes for study.
* Geolife applies geometric concepts to real-life, though not necessarily mundane, situations, with characters like A. J. the Astronaut and Yvonne the Inventor.
* Geoconclusions concentrates on proof and problem-solving skills. Some exercises present a diagram and a set of givens and ask you to draw conclusions. Others present a diagram, givens and a conclusion that then has to be supported with theorems or postulates.
* Geoproofs presents a diagram and scrambled proofs to be put into logical order.
* Finally, Geogolf puts a miniature golf course on the screen. To get a hole-in-one, you must select the proper angle and amount of force.
Each component has many variations and levels of difficulty. The screens are handsome and informative, and are relatively easy to navigate with keyboard or, preferably, mouse. Requirements are a computer running DOS 2.11 or later, with a graphics card and, for the best sound, an AdLib or Sound Blaster device. A hard disk is almost essential.
The suggested retail price of What's My Angle? is $49.95. A two-program Teacher's Edition is $59.95, and a five-program Lab Pack is $149.95; other Davidson learning games have them, too. Star Reporter
Also from Davidson is Headline Harry and the Great Paper Race, in which the player takes on the role of a reporter for The U.S. Daily Star trying to scoop the irresponsible Diabolical Daily. The scoops are based on actual news events from 1950 to 1990, and travel around the country, guided by an on-screen map, brings up United States geography, as well.
The version I tried, the Full-Spectrum 256-Color Edition, was startlingly handsome. It requires a computer with at least 640 kilobytes of internal memory and either an MCGA or VGA display. Its suggested retail price is $59.95. A 16-color version, for less well-endowed machines, is $49.95. Both versions require a hard disk. Ecological Adventure
Eco-Saurus, another Davidson educational product (produced by an affiliate, First Byte), soon wore me out collecting aluminum cans, old newspapers, etc., to put into the proper recycling bins. But then, I didn't have a 4-to-8-year-old handy to try it out. Eco-Saurus is similar to one of the old Adventure games in which you explore a varied world and collect treasures -- in this case, garbage -- to reach a final goal: building a spaceship out of it.
Eco-Saurus is $39. It takes full advantage of, and requires, a fairly powerful desktop computer, one with 640 kilobytes of memory, DOS 3.0 or later, EGA, MCGA or VGA video display, an audio accessory if available, a speed of at least eight megahertz and a hard disk with plenty of room to spare. I ran it on a 33-megahertz 386 machine and it was quite attractive and, considering the subject matter, entertaining. Weird characters pop up with clues to recyclables and environmental tips.

What Would A Mother-Daughter Book Club Read First?
The popular Mother Daughter Book Club series starts out the first book with the girls and their moms reading Little Women together. The series is aimed at middle school girls, but go ahead and ask if anyone in your class is familiar with it anyway. You might use this to start a discussion about whether or not this book is still relevant for mothers and daughters and the issues they face in modern times.
Excerpt: "But what begins as a mom-imposed ritual of reading Little Women soon helps four unlikely friends navigate the drama of middle school. From stolen journals, to secret crushes, to a fashion-fiasco first dance, the girls are up to their Wellie boots in drama. They can't help but wonder: What would Jo March do?"

A System for Managing Physical Data in Buildings
In order to reduce building energy consumption, the authors need a global, accurate view of the building. Many modern buildings have a sensing infrastructure that can be used to do fine-grained accounting and understand the complex interactions between systems and spaces. However, through the experience with an active, campus-wide Building Management System (BMS) system, they observe that BMSs are not well suited for this task. In buildings, there is a fundamental relationship between systems and spaces. The Integrated Sensor-Stream Storage System (IS4) captures this relationship by constructing a resource hierarchy that names measurement instruments relative to their context.

If you can tear your eyes away from all the fun at the wacky 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale, there are a couple of interesting things to keep your eye on at the Waste Management Phoenix Open. First off, Odyssey has created special putter covers that reflect the tournament's green spirit -- in fact, the exterior of the covers is made of recycled material, and the brown color was inspired by paper grocery bags. The inspiration, according to Scott Goryl of Odyssey parent Callaway, is Waste Management's push to create a greener, more sustainable world. The covers, for both mallets and blades putters, will be found on the putters of several Odyssey staff players. Only about 100 were produced, and none will be sold at retail. Also, Wilson Golf is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, and the company is marking the big occasion this week by outfitting its staff players with retro golf bags styled after those that its ambassadors -- incuding Gene Sarazen and Sam Snead -- used during the company's glory days. The red and white bags also feature the vintage Wilson Staff shield and retro branding. Padraig Harrington, Kevin Streelman and Ricky Barnes will be using the bags in Phoenix, while Paul Lawrie, Anthony Wall and Marcel Siem will do the same at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. The Wilson Staff ambassadors are expected to use the bags for most of the year as well. Here is a better look at the bags and covers, courtesy of Wilson's and Odyssey's Twitter account:
