Living my best life!

Hi, I'm Laurie. Besides the constants in my life (faith, family & friends), my passions are food, travel and expanding my horizons by doing both. I hope this blog will inspire you to go out and find your superlatives!

Hope you’re having a wonderful (and safe) Memori Hope you’re having a wonderful (and safe) Memorial Day Weekend. Our Sunday routine now includes picking up our our weekly order from Galveston’s Own Farmers Market. This beautiful bounty inspired me to pull out a couple of my favorite cookbooks: friend and author Robb Walsh’s Texas Eats and Houston restauranteur extraordinaire Chris Shepherd’s Cook Like a Local. Thinking I will try Eggplant and Spaghetti one night. Then Charred Shishito Peppers with Corn and Soy also sounds amazing! I will let y’all know how it all turns out. * * * * * #livesuperlatively #whyIGOFM #farmersmarket #shoplocal #eatlocal #farmtotable #healthyfood #foodblog #foodblogger #foodgawker #foodlover #foodoftheday #tastespotting #truecooks #buzzfeast #thekitchn #eater #foodiesofinstagram #foodielife #forkyeah #onthetable #instayum #dailyfoodfeed #heresmyfood #ipreview via @preview.app

Earlier today, @culturetrip asked their followers Earlier today, @culturetrip asked their followers what was their favorite alley? My immediate thought was the alley behind my home growing up where we took many walks and played many games of “kick the can” with neighborhood friends. Since I don’t have any pictures of the alley off of Evergreen Street, I will share one from my travels: Fan Tan Alley in Victoria, BC. A gambling district filled with opium dens in its original days, it is the narrowest street in Canada. Walking through the alley, you leave the manicured Victorian buildings and streets and enter Canada’s oldest Chinatown. ⠀⠀ 📌 Victoria, BC, Canada ⠀⠀ * * * * * #fantanalley #alleys #alleyway #victoriabc #beautifulbc #imagesofcanada #culturetrip #ilovetravel #travelandlife #travelblog #travelblogger #travelwithme #exploremore #instatravel #wonderful_places #travelgram #traveltheworld #TravelLife #MyTravel #summer2019 #vacationtime #wanderlust #travelmore #lovetotravel #goexplore #justbackfrom #ipreview via @preview.app

Instead we are #jazzfestinginplace and listening to @wwoz_neworleans as they broadcast past performances. The music is great, and as we sit on our front porch in the East End of Galveston, we can almost imagine we are in the Garden District!
