Every pregnant mama has their cravings and this expecting mama is no exception. During my first pregnancy, I craved very rare, bloody red meat. During my second pregnancy, I guzzled gallons of ginger ale. This time around, I can’t enough of the Cap’n. At first, I tried to stay true to my [...]

Going for Gasparilla
Late last Saturday evening, I bit the bullet and registered for the Gasparilla Distance Classic 5K. Since I’ve been feeling pretty good and my bladder is still holding stong, I feel capable to run a 5K. So why not go for the Gasparilla gold?

The city of Tampa hosts a month long pirate celebration in the name of Gasparilla which includes several parades, [...]

The Sweetness of Pancake Day
I first flipped over Pancake Day (Shrove Thuesday) as a student teacher interning in England when my housemates shared this tasty tradition with me. Although English pancakes are more flat like crêpes and topped with lemon juice and sugar, it didn’t prevent me from partaking in the feast. When I met my Scottish hubbie, [...]
