On the menu? Eggs benedict, for those who felt betrayed by the hype. Glazed donuts for those who really didn’t see it coming. A Forgiveness Frittata for anyone needing to absolve themselves or others. And, yes, you are allowed to groan when you hear this, but the drink of the day would be: Orange Juice glad the world didn’t end? If you are reading this the end of the world hasn’t taken place.  Of cour...

It started inland on San Diego’s Shelter island and ended up along the big bay in San Diego. It was a beautiful sunny fall day, with just a few wispy clouds in the sky. The race was point to point, ending up at Humphreys by the Bay for a Champagne brunch to finish up the event. I started near the front of the pack, and started at a reasonably fast clip. As the race thinned out, I found some runners that seemed to have a comfortable clip and stayed with them. The first mile was easy, and my time through the one mile checkpoint was great. As we turned the corner the sun was rising and you could see the masts of sail boats and the bay in the distance. It was truly an incredible day. I stayed with my running partners who were a little ahea...

Thankfully, the weekend is upon us. Here’s what we want to do: Drink a mimosa. Skipping coffee isn’t normally something we look forward to, but if it means slowing down our immunity to the benefits of caffeine, we’re willing to take a short break. Thank god for mimosas; without it our brunches would get ugly. Eat an ice cream cone. …Instead of a high-calorie, ice cream man diet-buster. Not that we don’t love ice cream sandwiches, but the nutrition facts have convinced us that we only need a small swirly cone. Bike in the park. By now, you should know that we have a real thing for bikes. But the good news is that pretty soon you could even charge you...

It's light, refreshing, and the wheat germ gives it an almost sweet and nutty crunch. The Greek-style yogurt is more rich and creamy than regular yogurt giving it an almost sinful decadence- except there's nothing sinful about it!

Remembering who they were before they went beyond our reach; imagining what they would say to us now if they were within hugging distance, is bittersweet. My Mom died eight years ago. It still doesn’t seem possible. The death of a mother is like nothing else. The bond we have to her is like nothing else. We can be three or eighty when we lose our Moms it doesn’t matter.
