I’d never heard of Pita Pit until a trip to Mammoth Mountain a few weeks ago. It was a nice change from the usual fast-food options, pita sandwiches, custom made. So I was thrilled to see that one was opening just around the block from me here in Newport Beach, on the Balboa Peninsula. Yesterday [...]

I love Diet Coke. Like really love it, to the degree that I realized recently that many days have gone by where Diet Coke is all I have drunk. So last week, when I forgot to start my daily ritual with a Diet Coke in in the morning, I decided to press on and go a full day [...]

Mother’s Cookies is closing. If you’re not from California, you might not realize what a staple they are to many here. Seeing them go, I feel a sense of loss. Something you just depend on having, knowing will always be there, can go poof in the course of a day. I know. They’re just cookies. I [...]

Way back in June 2006, I blogged about Doing The Blogger Diet. Lots of bloggers were trying to lose weight and being public about it. I thought that would be a good motivator. For the past three days, I’ve been below my original goal weight of 11 1/2 stones, or 160 pounds. I finally get to declare success! I’m actually [...]

Soon I hope to do an update on how well my TomTom 910 GPS performed last month getting me around California. But tangentially, some donut news, one of my favorite subjects. We’re getting more Dunkin’ Donuts nationwide (the nation of the US, that is). And I’ll even make it TomTom related.

The London shop which was near Covent Garden before has now moved off the side streets and into Covent Garden proper (address here). It’s a [...]

Over the past ten years, I’ve watched my weight ever so slowly creep up over time. When I first came to the UK, I weighed about 11 1/2 stone. Now I’m practically 13 stone. Feeling inspired by Chris Pirillo and now Jeremy Zawodny both blogging about their weight loss experiences, I’m going to redouble my efforts to follow the [...]

Saturday is Reeve’s day for us here in Wiltshire. That is, our weekly visit to Reeve The Baker. While I sorely miss not being able to swing by a Taco Bell for a seven layer burrito, finding Reeve’s was an unexpected treasure when we moved here eight years ago. If you’re heading by to see [...]

I’ve mentioned my love for donuts before. The highlight of SES Toronto was being presented with a dozen Tim Hortons donuts courtesy Page Zero, which got me through my Intro To Search Marketing session. And now I’m in love. Hands down the best donuts I have ever had — and I’ve had a lot of donuts. Before catching my flight, I [...]

I never bought Oreos much when I was living at home in the US. But now that I live abroad, they are one of those things I’m always picking up to bring back to the UK. The kids, of course, love them. And my youngest loves to dunk them. Good news, son. This summer new Oreo Dunkers are [...]
