My new favorite acronym for 2018 is NOSH (Natural, Organic, Specialty, and Healthy foods) and has been floating around in my head for the last couple weeks. I know it’s cliche to talk about eating healthier and being more financially responsible to start a new year, but I can’t help but feel
There were two days growing up that I looked forward to more than anything. First, obviously is Christmas morning (especially since Santa didn’t wrap gifts at my house so I would clothesline myself turning the corner to our living room with the explosion of toys, race tracks and XTREME skate gear. Second,
I have to admit, I have always been the antithesis of a regularly scheduled, daily routined individual. I spent half a decade touring the world and playing music – waking up in a new city every day, no real plans or commitments unless it was on our daily schedule sheet or booked
I feel like Halloween always brings out my guilty pleasures. As it should. Halloween encompasses all that is dark and spooky, but most important is the level of enthusiasm that spools up throughout the entire month of October. This time is filled with pipe dreams of that perfectly brilliant costume, invites to
It’s been hot in Los Angeles. And not, like, “I just don’t want to go outside” hot. It’s been a hot that feels like the core of the earth is slowly eating through the surface and melting us from the inside. This “heat wave” just so happened to coincide with my commitment

We are lucky enough to live in an environment that sustains growing practically all types of fruit and vegetables. Our last home’s yard had pomelos, tangerines and limes, while our new home has lemons and peaches. Both trees also help with much needed shade in the Los Angeles heat. We have started
Everyone knows that the best Japanese food in the country is in California. From fresh nigiri and hand rolls, to the classic cut rolls and miso soup, there’s nothing better than a Los Angeles summer and sushi. That is, if you don’t forget to order the Sapporo to wash it down with.
I’m still getting used to this whole “being a father” thing. So much so that I almost have a sense of “imposter syndrome” when it comes to Father’s Day. My son is only two so all of the gifts he’s gotten me thus far are insanely adorable projects brought to life by
If any of my articles over the last year show something about me, it’s that there are two things that I truly love: candy and gadgets. This obviously pertains to the former and is crucial if you have a similar taste (or even occasional cravings for delicious snacks. First, we all know that
I’ve never been big on New Year’s resolutions. And in keeping with my consistency, I entered 2017 without any formal resolution of any kind. Now I have plenty of faults and weaknesses, but by the time the new year rolls around, the last thing on my mind is altering the way I
If you didn’t notice from my last article regarding Papa John’s pizza, I’m a bit of a fanatic when it comes to the delicious hand-held meal-in-a-box. It wasn’t until I was touring in a band full time that I really expanded my palette for various foods and geographical variations in affordable and
