It is said that you eat with your eyes before your other senses. That is true with me. When I saw this plate I thought….yummmm. My second thought was…how do they do that? I remember eating crunchy tacos that fell over and then later soft tacos that would also fall over. What was this magic?
Glad to say, the fish tacos were delicious and it didn’t take long for me to learn the secret.
Haha! Presentation, presentation, presentation.
We went all out at the coast this month with three generations under one roof. Luck was with us as we enjoyed blue skies, incredible views, and non-stop action morning to night.

It was a weekend of memories.

My first encounter with this complicated vegetable came well into my 20’s. Ours was a basic peas, carrots, corn kind of family. It was at a small roadside restaurant called “Spuds” in Salt Lake City, Utah. Its success came with simplicity. They only served 2 things; baked potatoes, with all kinds of toppings, and steamed […]
