San Diego

I spent some quality time in San Diego with my family, and we had a blast hanging out together.  Although this was the first Mother's Day without my beautiful mom, it wasn't a sad day at all.  I just thanked God for the family He has given me, cherished...

Odelia – The Luxe

Welcome to the restaurant where glitz and glamour meet delicious! I am so captivated by the decor and detail put into every inch of this space from the couture marble bar area to the velvet furniture that fills the restaurant. I don't know where to start --- the food...

Reilly Craft Pizza & Drink

I love pizza, but I don't eat it a lot because it is unhealthy, of course.  I met a young lady who told me about Reilly Craft Pizza & Drink.  One of my friends also told me that she loved the atmosphere there and that the pizza was great.  I decided...

A Romantic Getaway
