Inside San Diego

When you grow up somewhere, day to day life often interferes with playing tourist in your own city.  Now that San Diego is no longer my hometown I find myself continually returning to see my city favorites, and maybe becoming a little bit of a tourist myself, but with an insider's perspective.

When my Mom picks me up from the airport, we immediately head to Cedros Design District.  Just streets away from the coast in Solana Beach, Cedros is lined with boutique shops carrying home decor, furniture, fashion, and antiques.  First stop, is Orange Blossom Cafe for a morning coffee.  My favorite is the Smores--the owner is usually the one who whips one up, using a kitchen torch to melt the marshmallows and toast them to perfection!

Along with the shops, are cafes that dot the street.  I am perpetually craving the perfect caprese panini, and there are a few stops here where I can indulge in this favorite, namely, Zinc Cafe and just off Cedros on Lomas Santa Fe, Caffe La Bocca (where they also serve homemade gelato).  This time, we opted for something different: Claire's on Cedros, a green restaurant focused on sustainability, the materials used in the restaurant interiors are made out of organic materials along with their organic and seasonal menu.

I also always make sure to pop into Bixby & Ball.  This shop housed in the most adorable cottage is relatively new to Cedros, and the young owners couldn't be friendlier.  Inside you can find an array of great finds from delicious scented candles, to John Robshaw products, to furniture, artwork, and also an array of jewelry.  This time I picked up a pair of green chandelier earrings, which you may be able to spot below.

We also don't blink an eye when considering making a quick day trip to Orange County.  I lived in Orange County prior to moving to Texas, so I amassed a few favorites places here as well.  My go-to restaurant is True Food Kitchen in Fashion Island, Newport Beach.  The bright and airy ambience along with the delicious food and drinks--make sure to try the Cucumber-Kumquat Skinny Margarita--is so refreshing.   The restaurant concept is based on the famous Dr. Andrew Weil's diet, but even though it is "healthy" there is no lack of flavor.  Everything tastes fresh and divine.

Since we are at Fashion Island, of course we have to hit up a few of my favorite stores.  They make it easy as Trina Turk and Jonathan Adler sit side by side.

The Trina Turk Fashion Island store was also designed by the famed Kelly Wearstler.

I also spent a lot of time at the interior store Room Service, as they have a lot of fun, unique finds, and can also customize many of their products.

There was more family time, dinners out at Luc's Bistro (parmesan truffle fries, another favorite!), and with my girlfriends in La Jolla (on Prospect) overlooking the ocean.  I guess we were having too much fun to take pictures!

Essential Travel Items

My Paperchase Notebook (source)

I have written a bit about packing before. Last week I wrote about how to pack light. I have also written about 10 things every person should have in their pack for a long trip. For those two as well as additional travel tips, go HERE. Today I want to talk about my essential travel items.

- Wet Wipes: I use the Target brand face wipes. They come in a pack of 60 or a pack of 10. This pack of 10 just came out. Before I would buy the 60 pack and separate them into Ziplocs so I wouldn’t have to carry around 60 at a time. But now Target does it for me. Thanks Target. These are good for everything. Miss a shower, use one! Eat an orange on the bus, use one! Go pee in a questionable toilet, use one! There are so many uses for these things -- you can even use them for their intended purpose and wipe your face!

- My Paperchase Notebook: If you don’t know about this brand, you should. You can find them online or at Borders. The notebook I love the best is a travel notebook with dividers, pockets and one little Ziploc pocket in the back. There is plain paper, lined and grid. It is great for keeping track of my travel notes, budget and keeping stubs and mementos! This is the best notebook EVER.

- Earplugs: Yes, I use these A LOT. On the bus, in hostels and even sometimes when I just want to read my book and my boyfriend is watching TV (in the same room of course). They come in very handy.

- Money Belt: I don’t always wear this, but it is a handy place to keep your extra money and your passport. I do use it a lot, but even when I am not using it, I know where my important things are.

- Gold-ban Antibacterial Lotion: This moisturizes and cleans! And by golly, it doesn’t smell really chemically. It fact, it smells good! And doesn’t leave your hands all dried out like the regular Purell Antibacterial stuff.

- Shampoo: I know, you are thinking, “duh”, but really, shampoo can be used as shampoo, body wash, hand wash AND laundry soap. Really, you should always have some on you. It’s not just for hair.

- Ziploc bags: Can be used to separate laundry, to carry that shampoo I talked about so it doesn’t leak, to carry food if you buy any in bulk or to keep your camera in when you go to a place in the rainy season. Basically I usually bring half a dozen gallon sized ones and half a dozen quart sized ones. One tip, don’t buy the cheap ones. I did that, and they just all ended up splitting open anyway.

Okay, so now you have it, some essential travel items. I am sure I have probably left out several and I am sure that you guys have many more suggestions!

Let me know what I am missing. What do YOU consider an essential travel item?

This post is part of the A-Z Blogfest. E is for Essential. You can see my other “letters” HERE.

Panic Attacks and General
Anxiety Today!

The results speak for themselves:

• Not feeling connected to what is going on around you
• Overwhelming fear that the anxiety will push you over the edge?

These and other similar uncomfortable sensations are all too common but the truth is you do not have to ever suffer from another panic attack or anxiety attack again

I’ll explain why

Most of the people I deal with have been struggling with anxiety disorders for many years and have usually exhausted themselves looking for a solution in every book, course, or treatment program out there. By the time they get to me, they are very skeptical (as is natural) and have little faith in ever getting rid of their condition.

The technique I teach has been developed by me Barry McDonagh, a former sufferer of all too frequent panic attacks and GAD. I developed a completely natural approach to eliminating 100% of general anxiety and panic attacks. This may seem very hard to believe for someone who may have had this condition for some time but believe me the newinformation is now available to be free from anxiety. I will reveal the whole technique to you.

You will be amazed at how such a simple technique known as the 21-7 Technique™ could be so powerful in restoring you back to your former care free self. I am not only talking about eliminating panic attacks but also getting your general anxiety level right back down to zero without the use of any medication or alternative therapies. This technique is based on advanced psychology made simple for everyone to apply.

Your anxiety will vanish.
Your Confidence Will Soar
And The Results Last A Lifetime.

Best of all…

It does not rely on outdated anxiety techniques such as ‘deep breathing’, positive affirmations, or distraction.

It takes seconds to implement wherever you are, -at home, at work or out socializing with friends.

This technique is not NLP or hypnosis. It is an advanced cognitive technique born from traditional psychology that everyone can apply regardless of how long the anxiety has been present.

You will not be asked to follow a time consuming 30 step program that will bring only minor improvements.

After reading this information you will be able to immediately have confidence to tackle any of the big stresses you may have been putting off e.g. driving, air travel, interviews etc.

But don’t just “take my word for it”,
see what the experts think…

If you will let me I will tell you something extremely important about anxiety and panic attacks. This is crucial if you are to seriously begin on the road to full recovery

OK, here goes..

This Is The Key To Being Panic Attack Free….

You Must Learn To Break The Fear Of Having Another Panic Attack Or You Will Never Experience Complete Freedom From Anxiety

-The anticipation of a panic attack starts the wave cycle of anxiety in motion.

-The foundation of a future panic attack is laid hours before you actually experience one.

-The slightest stress trigger will then launch the full blown panic attack into motion.

-Panic manifests itself in approximately 20 minute wave like formations.

This Is Where Your Problem Lies

There is one key factor that makes the difference between those who fully eliminate panic attacks from their lives and those who do not. The key ingredient is not medication, lifestyle changes, or relaxation exercises. It is when the individual no longer fears the thought of having a panic attack..

This may seem like a simplified and obvious observation but give it careful consideration. The one thing that has you searching for a solution to anxiety and panic attacks this very moment is the fear of having another one.

The first time a person experiences a panic attack it can feel like their world is falling down around them. Nowhere feels safe as the anxiety becomes like a stalker lurking in the background.

When this happens people begin to either avoid situations that make them anxious or they medicate themselves to the point where they are numb to the fear. I am sure you will agree neither of the above is a satisfactory solution.

What my program (Panic Away ) does, and in
particular the 21-7 Technique™, is give people the ability to immediately stop fearing another panic attack. It is very simple yet amazingly effective. Here is how it works:

After a person experiences a panic attack for the first time, the experience can be so impacting that it leaves a strong imprint on the persons psyche. This mental imprint generates a cycle or loop of anxiety (see diagram) whereby the person develops an unhealthy fear of having another panic attack. People can spend anywhere from months to years caught in this repetitive cycle of anxiety.

Panic Away teaches a technique that now allows that person to break the cycle of anxiety and return to normal everyday living.

The really unique element of the technique, is that there is no need for you to regress into your past and find out why you had your initial panic attack in order to get results. All that is needed is your willingness to break out of the anxiety cycle. Are you ready to try this right now ?

In the end you must:

Break This Cycle Of Fear With A Tool That Will
Allow You To Never Fear Another Panic Attack

That Has Been The Solution For The
Thousands Of People I have Taught So Far

Catholic Civil Rights

 Catholics and other religious groups have been fighting for a long period of time over their rights. Many places around the world have tried to prohibit some basic rights to their people and some have succeeded. Some governments or groups of people have also joined these ideas and have done the same thing. As the ideas spread, people were uniting more and more to fight against these. Many groups, committees, or associations have formed to fight for their rights.One group is the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights.


 The Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights defends the rights of Catholics so they can appear in public appearances without discrimination or them being treated unjustly. They wanted to certify the religious freedom and freedom of speech for Catholics among other things. The organization was founded in 1973 by Virgil C. Blum and was president until 1989. Many people around the world started joining the organization. The last estimate of membership was made in 1999 with 350,000 members. In the counties of Nassau and Suffolk in New York around 15,000 members were claimed in 2003. They make around 0.1% of the US population.

 The Catholic League has done many protest over the years. Besides protest, they share ideas and respond to other peoples comments. The last response was made in March 31 against a Macy's commercial who offended the Catholics. We hope to keep hearing more about this group and their movements.

Cinderella

I picked this up a couple of years ago at an estate sale. I love the colorfulness!

When Walt Disney came out with Cinderella in 1950, J. C. Penney gave this flyer out free. It looks like a magazine when it is folded up. As it opens up, you are treated to a show of color!

"It's Magic!.... how much you can sew! Take this apron design... You can make it as an everyday apron or as an apron accessory to lend the Cinderella touch to a dress-up costume!"

"...in sanforized silvermoon prints! ...in sanforized needle and thread broadcloth!

...in crisp printed waffle pique!"

"Eyelet edging! Rick Rack! Bright Patches!"

The inside opens to reveal the pattern. I can't wait to make one! I love the curved edge and how it ruffles. Too bad J.C. Penney doesn't sell fabric any more..... we could use another fabric store....
