We got to visit the day before it was open to park guests for a special media tour of the new attractions and rides. Toontown has been closed since March 14, 2020. Initially, the entire Disneyland park was closed due to COVID. However, even after the park reopened, Toontown remained closed for renovations.

Have you heard of a green tea shot? I hadn’t until very recently. Initially, I actually thought it was a healthy shot, like an infusion of green tea and other things you would drink for your health. Well, I was wrong. Sure, healthy green tea shots do exist, but these ones are liquor. Green tea cocktails are sometimes called the Jameson green tea shot. They are super easy to make and a really interesting mix of sweet and sour. They are also a pretty popular cocktail shot and perfect for St. Patrick’s day.

One of my favorite weekend trips from Los Angeles is to visit Palm Springs. It is only about a two-hour drive. When you get to the desert, it really does feel like you’re in a completely new place. It’s been a pretty chilly winter here in LA, so I wanted to escape the cool weather for some warmth and sunshine.

I bought this neon floral bubble coat to bring with me to NYFW, but then I decided not to attend this year. Believe it or not, mornings and evenings in LA can get cold enough when you need a warm bubble jacket like this. I absolutely love this jacket for several reasons, the print being the number one reason. I think the floral pattern is so fun. It gives a nod to spring while still being the perfect winter jacket.

Chocolate covered pretzels, especially chocolate covered pretzel rods are one of my favorite treats.

For Gigi’s birthday this year, she requested a soccer birthday party. My kids have played soccer for a few years, but they really got into it this past fall. It is so fun watching them bloom into little athletes and I was excited she picked a sports theme this year. In the past, she’s gone for much girlier themes. We did ballet one year, and unicorns another year, so this was a fun change.

I recently got this cute cut out sweater and I think it’s such a fun change of pace for winter fashion. I generally avoid bulky sweaters in the winter and I love that this one is streamlined and unique. It also has a cute feminine touch with the little pearl button detail.

During the holidays, I made one of my favorite quick appetizers – puff pastry-wrapped brie. It is such an easy, yet appears elevated, appetizer. However, I had an extra sheet of puff pastry and I wasn’t sure what to do with it. I usually used puff pastry to make. well, pastries. But I figured there must be another way to use the puff pastry. Enter puff pastry pizza. This might be my new favorite and the easiest way to make pizza at home.

Have you heard of Atlantis Bahamas? I can’t remember the first time I heard about Atlantis, but I do remember how much it stood out as an iconic location the times I’ve been to Nassau. This is my third time in Nassau, although I actually forgot I had visited in 2013. My memory was jogged as we drove from the airport through the downtown area. I remembered the trip and our Vespa ride around the island as we drove past the distinctive downtown area and the fish market.
