I’m thankful for the best family, great friends, delicious food, full-time employment and four days with my cats.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! What were you thankful for? What was the best dish on the dinner table?

Happy Memorial Day!!
I want to say thank you to all our troops, present and past, home and overseas, active and reserve, for protecting our country, fighting for freedom and keeping America safe. You make our country the land of the free and home of the brave!
On another note, I literally ate enough food for a small family, which doesn’t bode well with my bikini body. Hummus and chips. Flank steak and chicken. Potatoes. Rolls. Blueberry crisp with vanilla ice cream. I’m going to explode just thinking about it.
The longer I’m home, the more I eat, and the more I eat, the more I seriously consider the Master Cleanse upon my return to LA…

Thank You Mom!!
Wednesday, April 27th, 2011
I cannot thank my mom enough for all her help over the past week(s), months and years. She truly is the best mom a girl could ask for.
While we often think of help in a monetary sense, my mom is also there for me emotionally. Transitioning to any city, be it Los Angeles, Beijing or even Pullman, always has a few tears, fears and frustrations. I can count on my mom to listen, let me vent and lend me her wisdom, shaping me into the woman I am today.
Thank you again Mom for all your help. I love you more than words can describe. Your support is priceless.

Baja Cantina
Wednesday, April 27th, 2011
After a long, lazy, sun-filled day at the pool, what could be better for dinner in Venice? Happy Hour at Baja Cantina!
Mom and I came to Baja Cantina after hearing positive WOM (word of mouth) reviews. After experiencing the food, I can see why. We ordered margaritas off the Happy Hour menu, which consisted of a variety of food for only $4.99. We also munched on chips and salsa waiting to order. Usually I don’t like salsa, but the salsa here is especially good. The hot and salty chips hit the spot after a long day at the pool.
For dinner we ordered a burrito (which I cannot remember the name of) and fish tacos. Coming from Eastern Washington, an area with a high hispanic population, I’ve eaten my fair share of burritos. This burrito blew the others out of the water. The combo of rice, beans, pork and green sauce didn’t overpower my palate like the cheese-drenched burritos from home. Mom said it’s probably the best burrito she’s ever eaten. The fish tacos were great too, but small portions. If you’re hungry, order the burrito. Or fill up on chips and margaritas.
My only complaint for Baja Cantina is the service. Our waitress wasn’t bad, but Mom said, “our raven haired waitress seemed less-than-happy to serve us.” Observing other staff at the restaurant, maybe we just got a grump?
Baja Cantina is located at 311 Washington Boulevard and Happy Hour is from 3 to 7 PM. This place gets packed, especially on game days. Flat screens aired baseball games and the NBA playoffs and cute surfer boys packed the bar. (hint, hint to all my single ladies) Walk if you can, because the margaritas are stiff, cheap and delicious!
