Now see this photo? This was taken a week ago on our 5-year anniversary.  So that is our secret. Money that would be spent on new clothes, goes toward traveling!  The weird thing about it is, for some reason, we both decided to pack these outfits– without consulting each other.  I haven’t worn this since our honeymoon, and I’m ashamed to say it is still in my closet.  Then we both decided to wear […]

Five years ago, Nick and I went to PDC with 85 of our closest friends and family and got hitched.  A return trip seemed like the perfect […]

Over the past few years, I have heard so much hype about tacos al pastor, that I couldn’t resist it any longer. Being Jewish, I never ate pork growing up. Maybe the occasional bacon, but that doesn’t really count. Everyone eats bacon, right? It’s not because growing up we kept strict kosher dietary laws, it just wasn’t […]

My husband has a small obsession with tequila. That’s not the problem though. The problem is that every time we pass a tequila shop in Mexico, he has to go in to check it out– just to look.  I’m always rolling my eyes thinking, “what’s going to be different this time?”  I love tequila too, but after one or two stores I feel complete, knowing I’ve seen enough.  When I go into these stores though, it raises some questions for me about people and their tastes. The […]

It’s hard to believe I am still writing about a time when this was going on:and this:and this: No trip to Playa would be complete without a few visits to El Fogon. A few years ago when looking for the ultimate in real, local Mexican food, we were directed to El Fogon.  It is a few blocks into town and away from the tourist strip, but that still doesn’t stop most visitors for stopping in for a meal.  I think many of us are in search of an authentic experience when […]

It’s in a great setting just off of the beach at the north end of town.  In a clean, modern space with a palapa-style roof, you can be sheltered while you enjoy the fresh air.  The staff was incredibly personable and welcoming.  The food here is a little bit fancier and dressed up than most of the places we were eating in Mexico.  They brought out some complimentary fish tostadas […]
