Mc Cafe
I have spent the last 7 days eating my way through Barcelona and the French Riviera. I’ve had soups and stews, and consume, and pate, and cheeses, and baguettes, and shellfish, and desserts in every shape and form. Me and my palette have thoroughly enjoyed Europe and every flavor it had to offer. Though truth

Just Desserts
Can we have a moment for the French dessert? I mean, when you sit down at a restaurant here you’re handed the regular menu and an entirely separate novel consisting of any sweet your mind can fathom… paper thin crepe with butter and sugar, creamy gelato, creme brulee fired table side, meringue the size of a

Viva la Francés
It’s not really a question of what have I eaten since arriving in Nice two days ago… the question is, what haven’t I eaten?? All diets and thoughts of calorie counting have long since flown out the window, and with this much creamy butter mixed into everything, it’s no wonder. Our arrival here was

Salud!
When looking back over my pictures from yesterday, one thing begins to stand out… we sampled many different drinks! Whether conscious or not it seems that yesterday was the day to sample what Barcelona’s bars had to offer. Yesterday started with breakfast at our hotel’s buffet.

Viva Barcelona!!
Good morning Chic Readers, As I type this, I’m sitting in a window seat at my hotel… to my right is the marina and behind it the Mediterranean Sea. To my left is the immense, colorful checkerboard that is the city of Barcelona. Coming to Spain has literally been a lifelong dream. I imagined a

The Jet Setter
As I type this, I’m flying God-knows-how-many miles above the earth, headed for Dallas Texas, and I’m struck at how much has changed in my life since the last time I came to Dallas 4 years ago. For one thing, they didn’t have wireless internet on airplanes back then and I was cramped in a
