Trust me, folks, it's not by choice. At the beginning of the month I ended up extremely sick for over a… Continue reading What Do You Mean No Bread?
Enough with the Sweatpants Already
"The fondest memories are made when gathered around the table with family and friends." -Anonymous Ah spring. What a beautiful time of year with the flowers in bloom, tree pollen coating our cars yellow, and noses sniffling nonstop. Add the plague to the mix and spring of 2020 is a wild one, that's for sure. Easter… Continue reading Enough with the Sweatpants Already
Take it Seriously, Folks
“You don’t want to be complacent. You always want to be ahead of the curve”-Dr. Anthony Fauci We're all going through it. Well, those of us that don't work an essential job. Quarantine.

Time to Avoid Everyone
“Go where you feel most alive.”-Anonymous I think we can all agree that 2020 sucks. From countries on fire, to the potential of World War 3, and now a plague 2020 can kiss my ass.

Read This When You’re NOT Hungry
“You can’t make everyone happy. You’re not cheese.”– Anonymous I don't see a point to live without cheese.

Seriously though, it makes things just better. Having… Continue reading Read This When You’re NOT Hungry

Life of Dyes
Hi y'all. You might have noticed the new tab on the site, might not have. I've been considering it for a bit now, but Life of Dyes will be a little more of the personal side to our lives outside of the traveling and food. Read, don't read it. It's up to you. We live… Continue reading Life of Dyes
We’re Moving!
On Saturday. A week after we signed the lease on the house. Yes, we got a house. No, we weren't originally planning to move so quickly. Yes, we are insane. A week to pack and move. I grew up in a military family. This shouldn't be too hard (I say while panicking). So, last week… Continue reading We’re Moving!

“The vacation we often need is freedom from our own mind.” -Jack Adam Weber Breaks. We all need them. So what better time to have one than right after the holidays?
