Living in Santa Barbara has been such a treat. I love the ability to travel from beach to  mountains in less than an hour and to enjoy the feeling that you are really getting away – not that being here to begin with isn’t already “away!”

This past holiday weekend went up to Solvang to do a bit of wine tasting at Demetria Estate and of course – have a fabulous tiffin picnic spread. I love taking the Square Tiffin. It’s so industrial and can hold gobs more than my friends and i could possibly enjoy in the span of a few hours.

Oh yeah… and then LL Cool J stopped by to help take photos and enjoy the sunshine. Love that!
