We’ve been traveling through California for almost a week. It has been fun but also exhausting! Our first stop was Sonoma for our friend and fellow blogger Mandy’s wedding at Kunde Estate. It was a gorgeous ceremony, and meant a lot to us because Mandy is responsible for Ron and I meeting. Her ceremony was also very close to where we had originally planned to get married.

After the wedding, our destination was to visit my parents and friends in Los Angeles. We broke up the drive south by staying at the Cypress Inn in Carmel-by-the-Sea for an evening. The next day we hit the road again, going south to Big Sur for lunch and continued along the coast to the South Bay. Here are some photos from our journey.

While in California, we will be cooking and eating and sharing these recipes in days to come, with a lot more photos! Thanks for your concerned emails about our lack of posting, but don’t worry: we’ll be making up for it with restaurant reviews, original recipes, great photos, and more!
