If I lay here If I just lay here Would you lie with me And just forget the world? Snow Patrol – Chasing Cars Driving down the freeway you can see them. Splashes of color giving a respite from the roads and buildings. I wish the Tecolote® Giant Ranunculus grew year round but it’s just March – […]
Carlsbad
The Flower Fields 5704 Paseo Del Norte, Carlsbad, CA 92008
Makes me think of Dorothy’s trek to Oz and all the friends she made along the way. Now I’ve got ‘The Merry Old Land of Oz’ playing in the background. The fifty acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers are as lovely and inspirational as the movie itself. The name Tecolote came from the owls that nested […]

There is something about brick buildings that I just adore. Maybe it’s the architecture, symmetry or the lovely brick red color, it makes a statement loud and clear. Here I am! Come on inside! This place appealed to me right from the start. A genuine replica of Boston’s original Green Dragon Tavern, demolished in 1854. […]
Pure Burger 2641 Gateway Rd, Carlsbad, CA 92009
First portion written by Maggie While quietly anticipating my dinner at Pure Burger, in comparison, I recognized just how few ‘other’ restaurants cater to people with food, dietary restrictions or the menu challenged sounds a bit better to me. I’m one of those people and it’s hard going out and winding your way around each […]
