Morro Bay Shopping

I was recently in Morro Bay for a bit of shopping. I was looking for some ideas, inspiration, and hopefully purchases to fuel a major upcoming event. Let me just say, for a fairly small town (population: 10, 350 people), Morro Bay has some killer shopping.

Have You Ever Tried Abalone?

I feel a little like a broken record telling you all how much I love the Central Coast and the people who choose to make it their home. But seriously, look at this:

The abalone is a mythical creature – at least in the mind of many foodies out there. Like many of the common fisheries out there, the

Central Coast Food Tours - a MUST!

I was recently lucky enough to be one of the super special, lucky people to get a preview food tour of SLO with Central Coast Food Tours. I don’t mean to harp on this, but have I told you how lucky we are?! Lucky that we live in a gorgeously spectacular place; lucky that the people who choose to

SLO Mission

As a part of every fourth grade class, students across California study “California History” (side note: when I was a kid, I thought this was standard curriculum across the United States – I was a bit disappointed to discover later in life that schools outside of CA didn’t value our history as much
