“Breakfast” Cottonwood, 2024

Today was a long travel day, starting in Sedona, Arizona, and ending in Torrance, California. We kicked things off with a yummy breakfast at the Old Town Red Rooster Café in Cottonwood before hitting the road. Bay took the wheel for the first leg, and I drove the California stretch.

“Driver” Arizona, 2024

After a full day of driving, dinner at CoCo Ichibanya hit the spot. I usually go for level 10 spiciness, but this location now offers levels 15 and 20! Naturally, I had to try level 15. It was spicy, though I feel like their old level 10 from years back packed more heat. Either way, I’m definitely trying level 20 next time!

“Snow Crab” Hollywood, 2024

I’m in Hollywood, Florida, for a few days on a work trip, and as far as work destinations go, this one’s pretty great! Today was mostly a travel day, but Mariko came along, and we kicked things off with an early anniversary lunch at Billy’s Stone Crab. The seafood was absolutely delicious!

Afterward, we strolled back to our hotel, where I hopped on the Wi-Fi to catch up on work. Even though this is a work trip, I have a feeling it’s going to be a lot of fun!
