Midway at the fair...

La La La La Lola...

 MMMMMmmmmmmm! Lola's burritos are that good!

Sitting in the heart of the old Carlsbad Barrio, Lola's 7-Up Mexican market & Deli is a sweet deal for an afternoon meal!

Lola's offers a full menu of delicious selections from Chili Rellenos to burritos, as well as a market for necessities and sundries.

The original Lola's was opened in 1943 and has since maintained legacy status in town! Tourists who ask where to get a good plate of authentic Mexican food, will always be directed to Lola's.

My family has lived in Carlsbad since the 70's and Lola's has always been a tradition! Touted as "the best comida Mejicana" and voted "BEST TAKEOUT" two years in a row, Lola's will never disappoint! 

You will always be greeted with fast service and a smile no matter how busy it gets! Seating is limited and fills up quickly but lucky for you...Lola's will wrap it up and you can eat it on the go!

Eating at Lola's is a journey into a little bit of Carlsbad history and I always recommend supporting our local businesses!

Taking a meal at Lola's has been compared to having lunch made especially for you by your three Abuela's. Ah the aromas!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fair Play

The fair is here!

Today was the first day of the 2011 fair season, running through the 4th of July!

I cannot wait for pink sugar cookies from the gingerbread house! I long to eat them all year!

Here is a peek of some things you might see this year!

Don't forget your sunscreen! See you at the fair!

Gnome Better Place

 

 Near the end of one of the sweetest little streets in Carlsbad, sits one of my favorite browsing and buying spots; Vigne Antiques.

The antiques they offer are similar to antique finds you may spot at many of the quaint antique vendors around town however, it is within the garden where magic happens!

Behind Vigne's storefront is an expanse of land filled with plants and pots and decor and furniture and I am sure that faeries and gnomes dwell here!



The very next time you have a spare moment or money that is yearning to be spent on you...take a stroll through the back garden at Vigne Antiques and I assure you that you will not be disappointed you took the time to visit.
