California Love...

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, but for the longest time I have taken advantage of the fact that Cali has so much to offer, so much to see, and a quick trip up or down the road opens your heart and mind to so much.  The hubby and I love to take quick getaways to Santa Barbara and Palm Springs.  I subscribed to C Magazine, which boast about all things California, and list so many hidden gems and great places to see.  If your a California lover, then I suggest you pick up a copy.

What I love in the most recent issues...Summer Splendor!

the OC mart mix

the oc mart mix is like the ferry building in san francisco or the oxbow market in napa.  I don't get to orange county very often, but I will have to take a special trip there real soon. 

gotta love California!
