Where Have I Been Hiding?

  I’ve been receiv­ing a lot of mes­sages ask­ing where Style­bag­gage has been lately. I igno­rantly thought I was going to be able to jug­gle my blog, while start­ing a new job. I guess I for­got I also have a hus­band, teenage son, house, friends, prob­lems and of course my beloved dog. I apol­o­gize for […]

Potato Postcards

                    On my recent trip to Idaho I wanted to send a post­card home to fam­ily. How­ever, I didn’t want to just send a bor­ing paper post­card. I came up with the idea of mail­ing an actual Idaho potato with my mes­sage writ­ten on it. My […]

Cafe Chloe, San Diego

Look­ing for a culi­nary gem in San Diego? I found one I love, Cafe’ Chloe on Ninth Ave. I recently had some time to burn while wait­ing for some­one at the air­port so I headed out to find myself a lit­tle break­fast and cof­fee. My sis­ter had told me about this place before, so I […]

A Quotation at the Right Moment is Like Bread in a Famine

When life gives me lemons, some­times I add vodka, other times I try and see my glass half full. I hope you enjoy some words of wit and wis­dom. “When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regret­fully upon the closed door that we do not see the one […]

Do You Know What Day It Is?

Almost every­one has their cal­en­dars on their com­put­ers and phones these days. I am still a tad old fash­ion and always buy a new one for my office wall or desk­top. I admit I don’t use them for the func­tion as much as for the cool fac­tor for décor and at a glance pur­poses. Here […]

Tah-Dah!

Thanks to the help of Stephanie at Con­tem­po­rary Web­decor, the new face of Style­bag­gage is done! This has def­i­nitely been a learn­ing expe­ri­ence for me. It will con­tinue to be a process as the world of tech­nol­ogy seems to change by the minute. Although the over­all look and design of my blog is com­pleted, there […]

The Bandages Are Coming Off!

    I recently posted that I was get­ting a facelift. Per­haps it’s bet­ter said that Style­bag­gage is get­ting nipped and tucked, not me per­son­ally. The day has finally arrived to take the ban­dages off! I’m so excited and hope you will come see the results for your­self in the next few days…

"There's No Crying In Cooking!"

                        The other day I was in the kitchen chop­ping onions in my nifty Vidalia Chop Wiz­ard. (this is one of my favorite kitchen gad­gets) Tears were just gush­ing down my face and it was burn­ing like crazy.  I hap­pened to glance over on […]

Things Mr. Nish Would Love

So who is Mr. Nish? He’s a pro­fes­sional pho­tog­ra­pher teach­ing at San Fran­cisco City Col­lege, who also hap­pens to be my dad. Basi­cally if he’d like it, most pho­tog­ra­phy buffs would too. Enjoy “mon­i­tor shop­ping” as I like to call it (win­dow shop­ping is like, so 1990’s!).  If any of my dad’s stu­dents out there […]
