As I am with family in America at the moment, posting recipes and getting foodie pics isn’t as convenient. With two grandbabies around, meal times have a different and more appropriate focus than an Instagrammable photo! But since I am a Mexican food lover, and my daughter whipped up some yummy tacos the other night, I had to share them! Continue reading
Today is Wednesday which usually means I do a cooking tutorial for my Woman Crush Wednesday series. I choose a female chef and recreate one of her recipes live on Snapchat. However, today is a momentous day around the world. It is International Women’s Day which is being played out in many different ways. Various events from marathons, marches, lunches and summits, all highlighting this year’s theme of #beboldforachange. Continue reading
It is no secret our family has a love affair with donuts! I mean who doesn’t? We scour the globe getting them everywhere we can to compare and contrast. I’ve taken my Snapchat friends on several Foodie Fieldtrip Friday outings to donut shops. I gave Snapchat headquarters custom donuts that spelled out Snapchat! I even dressed as a donut for Halloween this year! While the majority in our family prefer the “cake” variety, there are others in the “yeast” donut camp.

Even though I am late to the social media game, I am making up for lost time. I have been blessed to make friends with folks from all walks of life, from all over the world and all different ages. Social media is a wonderful vehicle to spread some LOVE in this world! Continue reading
It would seem that Self LOVE is the most shared love story during this Guest Blogger Month series on Yankee Doodle Paddy. Yet each of the authors that chose to write about it has such a different way in which they impart the journey to their soul.

Because our personalities, experiences and essences are totally unique and beautiful. Hence self love is SELF LOVE, not “someone else” LOVE. The awesome Paul Broghall from Ireland found that out himself and bravely shares his love story with us. Continue reading
