Never be Stagnant
There are five hikes I've been wanting to do since moving to San Diego. Three Sisters Falls, Potato Chip, Torrey Pines, Iron Mountain Trail, and Devils Punchbowl! So far on this list I've hiked Torrey Pines, and yesterday checked Devils Punchbowl off the list. Torrey Pines is much closer to where I live in San Diego, Punchbowl is…
I've recently discovered that I can no longer call a new bike trail "My New Favorite". If I were to do this every time I found a new bike trail (which I would like to) I would have a lot of new favorites! California offers such beautiful trails and with every new trail I find myself…
Being productive in San Diego is quite easy since there is always something to do and it's always nice out! Last Sunday I definitely took advantage of my day off and having my new bike. I've been wanting a bike for quite some time now (a commuter bike, since I already have a mountain bike).…
This past week Tyler and I decided to check out yet another mountain biking trail. This time we decided to check out Laguna Mountain. Driving from San Diego it's about an hour drive, but definitely a drive with a view. The 8 miles leading up to the trail are breathtaking. Driving along the side of…

Moving across country away from your family and friends can make you feel a little displaced. Moving to San Diego I know was the right move, but I definitely miss my family. So, when I was going through my recipe binder and found my moms old recipe for her famous tuna salad I had to make it.…
Yesterday was the first day my boyfriend (Tyler) and I had off together in almost three weeks. Since we currently have only one car between the two of us, when we get a day off it usually mean running errands and trying to squeeze some fun in-between. Yesterday started like any other errand day. I had…
Moving to a new area always starts with me writing a bucket list. This list mainly consists of things that most locals have done or tourist typically do. For example, here are some of the things on my list: Learn to surf Hike in Torrey Pines Visit the San Diego Zoo (DONE) Watch the Sunset…
Yesterday was my boyfriends birthday and his favorite dessert is cheesecake! Now I usually like to throw a twist on cheesecake (like chocolate cheesecake, Oreo cheesecake, or strawberry, some sort of added flavor), but he really wanted a traditional cheesecake. This is my favorite recipe! Makes a decadent tall cheesecake, just like one you might…
I have lived in San Diego approximately three weeks now. One of my favorite things about the west coast (so far) are the amazing sunsets. The newest and now my favorite spots to watch the sun go down is La Jolla Cove. The locals say you're supposed to see a green flash when the sun goes…
