Eating My Way Out
With as many cuisines and flavors and spices and cooking methods coming my way via Spain (and other stops), I am indeed looking forward to international foodie-ism. But that doesn’t mean I won’t miss what I have at home in the US. Being from Savannah, GA, I’m a coastal woman and I enjoy my fair share (and your share, too) of seafood. Shrimp, oysters, calamari, fish, conch, and so on...
Something is in my dang food!
Today I returned for the third time to what I’ve adopted as my café, Gelatiamo, which is a few doors down from my apartment here in Spain. As you can tell by the name, they have #gelato, the best I’ve ever tasted. This place also sells food, including my favorite, crepes. For lunch, I ordered...
Incense, Sage, and Good Vibes
I arrived.
I made it to Barcelona, Spain.
And now, there are things that must be done.
If this was going to be home for me, it had to be cleansed. The cleaning service had taken care of the dishes, the floors, the dusting. But somethings, I have to do and only I can do.
One of the very...
Loving on the Street Art (BCN and Paris)
{ Street Art Gallery Following Post }
One of the things that has caught my attention and made me see it in a different way is graffiti/street art. There’s just something different about it from what I’ve seen in the US. Not to say similar street art doesn’t exist there, I just haven’t see...
Guess What?
So I’m moving to Barcelona.
No you’re not.
No really. I am. I’m moving to Barcelona, Spain.
I have to keep rotating between pinching myself to make sure I’m not dreaming and screaming, “Heffa! Have you lost your mind?” No, it’s not a dream. Yes, I have lost my mind. I can’t even speak Spanish, y’all! For real. I...
Where Would You Like To Go?
I know many of my readers, especially my friends and family, have heard of places in Spain they’d love to visit/experience. As for me, I have my same particulars I want to see everywhere I travel (food, books, crafty stuff, street events, and so on and so on. Did I say food already?) So, during...
5 Perfectly Good Reasons To Not Travel Abroad
Trust me, this is a list you NEED to read before you even bother getting the dang passport:
You are content (or flat-out happy) with your life and have no interest in adding any new and exciting adventures to your story. Stay put. Nothing to see here. Taking time out from your daily routine to shake things...
Running Away?
My life has been every bit of an interesting journey. I’ve told parts of my story through my #writing, while other parts, I just never mention because it is of no benefit to me or anyone else. I am, very particular, about what I share. Yes. The commas were intentional. So I’m sharing this “particular”...
Eatin’ My Way Out Of The U.S.

Cooking In Spain
Last night, I cooked my first meal here in Barcelona. This was my first time cooking “fuet”, which is a staple meat here in Catalan. I’ve eaten it at a restaurant or two, but the flavor was mixed with others. Last night, though, I tasted its true flavor and liked it. Kale, peppers, onions, chorizo,...
