When I first moved here a few years ago I had an idea where to eat based on some family recommendations. It is also the central coast so there is always so much food and wine to try. But here a few places I fell in love in the village and bring more friends and family to. From a range of different food menus, to different activities happening at the establishment there is a little bit for everyone here.
I have my everyday essentials stocked up here, and nothing fancy exists in my fridge or pantry. Just basic stuff. But I can assure you that they are healthy.

Some people meal prep. I… assemble random items in my pantry and fridge to consume. Whether it’s ‘girl dinner,’ a midnight snack, or a fridge-cleanout charcuterie moment, these are the staples I keep stocked. They’re versatile, snackable, and sometimes questionable — but they always come through when I can’t be bothered to cook (which I already don't enjoy doing lol) 🥖🧀🍫
Sips I Swear By ☕️✨ If there’s one thing about me—it’s that the very first thing I do when I wake up is head straight to my Nespresso machine. I’ve tested more pods than I can count, and these are the machines and flavors I swear by, time and time again. Consider this your shortcut to the perfect cup. 🤍
My family of 3 and 6 fur babies are regulars at Sam's. Not much has ever disappointed me here and it is almost always more cost effective for my family. In the past we only would do the reg membership but we upgraded the last year for the bonus of shipping. (free shipping for orders over $50) Since most items are quite heavy, shipping costs are insane. If you frequently prefer to ship items to your door, I would go for the plus membership. If you prefer to shop in store, I would do the regular membership. Also, in my area gas is almost always significantly cheaper here. The lines are long if you go at peak times, but I often wait anyways because saving money where I can is helpful. I have linked some of my most repurchased items, and I hope it helps you and your family.

Sometimes a glass of really good wine makes all the difference after a tough day (within reason of course!). As I'm in Canada, most of my favorites are more of the local wines here in my region (mainly Pinot Grigio or Gris, with some Rose/White Zinfandel mixed in). Unfortunately, I'm NOT a red wine fan, so I'm not able to truly recommend any good reds I'm afraid! But I will include a few other wines from other areas as well, that I have tried and liked. All my wine recs here are affordable wines (on average, under $15/bottle) and taste great (in my opinion) for the price. I've also included a section for some cool wine accessories/gift ideas for you or the other wine lovers in your life also :)
