Traveling for Food: Three Great European Dishes
As I'm gearing up to spend a couple of weeks doing a 3000 mile road trip from LA to Maryland to follow RAAM, I'm taking a closer look at road food. The small "mom and pop" type of diners that you discover while driving back roads state-to-state across America. Even in Europe I took a couple of short road trips and found some great eats along the way. My friends there thought it was strange that I'd rather take a car then a train.

Top 5 Must See Museums in Santa Fe
Santa Fe is a hub of art, history and culture and the city’s ten museums highlight that. For a small city (2010 census figures put the population at a little over 75,000) that’s a lot of museums. They all have a distinct character and are worth a visit. If time is short, here are my five top picks:

Secret Indulgences
12 February 2011
What are some of your secret indulgences? My two ... sweets (which is probably not so secret) and romance novels. Well, only my friend Karen's novels. Not only is there always a shirtless hottie on the front cover, but the stories are the type of page-turner that you'll devour as quickly as the O.M.G.-Melt-In-Your-Mouth pecan pie recipe that she shared with me below.

Romance At The Market
11 February 2011
On the bedside table, we found a small chocolate cake waiting for us with an anniversary card from the Inn. "There are many fish in the sea," the card read. "But you've already caught the love of your life - happy anniversary!"
