These fires got me all stressed and seeking comfort food. My old go-to, #pastor and #chorizo super #burrito is my warm hug. (at Taqueria El Tapatio #1) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp_NojrFVRr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13hmaikmiooh4

I was so excited to open the packages I got this morning from my good friend, @themrspowers! Thank you for the birthday presents from @kindomshop! They're made of sustainable products like organic cotton and recycled plastic bottles. The fit and feel are amazing. I'm not hip enough to wear these. Do I need to grow a beard?

I thought this year's birthday of mine was going to pass without us having dinner, but these people weren't going to allow it. I'm glad. It gave me a chance to try this place with great company. The gnocci was amazing, the lamb chops was divine and the beef cheeks were out of this world. Way to cap off another year on earth!

I had the opportunity to try this Chinese spot this week, but not just any other Chinese spot. This is a dumpling spot that has a more traditional presentation. You order similar to a dim sum restaurant with smaller, family-style dishes. I was only here for lunch, but I wanted to try every dish they had on the menu. We tried the minced pork noodles, the garlic string beans, some wontons, and the unique dumplings that has soup inside. I need to go back again...soon!

Dad, it's been 2 years today since I lost you, the most devastating day of my life. Though I think about you all the time, I realize that I can't mourn you all my life. Mourning you forces me to focus on your death, though that pales in comparison to how you lived. You had a great life. You were the most positive and fun-loving person I know. I should be remembering how you lived instead of how you died. Doing otherwise does your memory and legacy a disservice. You were so much more than your death. You loved karaoke and Zumba. You took terrible pictures. You once wrapped your Christmas gifts in Bank of America deposit envelopes. You had a great high-pitched laugh. Everyone loved you. I love you. I promise I will try my best to fill my memories of you with all the great things that consisted your life. YOU LIVED! You were always a great source of joy in my life, and there is no reason why you can't continue to do so. Where ever you are, know that I'm thinking about you today. But my thoughts are of how grateful I am to have had you in my life. Though tears well up as I type this, I will strive to laugh out loud at many of the memorable events of your life. Cheers to your life, Dad. You did it your way! (at Canoga Park, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpY1RI6HkUe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2pwx6rld1jrv

After spending my birthday in southern Virginia for a week, fishing all the local lakes, I had to catch one last bass with my bff @mario.marfori before my flight. #bass #bassfishing #bigbass #bassnation #basslife #largemouthbass #largemouth #catchandrelease #fish #lovefishing #fishinglife #fishing #ultralight #fishtacular #feeshtacular (at Sneads Spring, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpCtLCUHSa2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1t8j4ft0rmxml

If you ever find yourself in Southern Virginia, especially in the more rural areas, I wouldn't overlook the fried chicken at gas stations. Amazingly enough, because of the turnover, they are usually freshly made and taste better than any fast-food fried chicken joint. I was especially addicted to the deep fried chicken liver and gizzard at Valero (at Valero) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpBKpMqBXKf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=iy3qor1fjpdv

Got a chance to try the barbecue @ Virginia #Barbecue and Pizza. If I were only going to pick one, hands down it would be the brisket. It is so soft and flavorful, you might as well order 2 pounds right off the bat. Go directly for the brisket. #foodporn #foodie #foodgasm #food #foodtacular #eaterla #bentacular #wannafork #lafoodie #nomnom #EEEEEATS #foodstagram #eats #igfood #yum #tastespotting #instafood #foodlove #foodpics #bentacular #eater #notyelpelite #foodphotography #foodlover #foodpic #lovefood #bentacularfood (at Virginia Bbq & Pizza) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoxtoE2AHsW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=i5qk0lve612c

If haven't had the chance, you must try their fried chicken livers at Valero. #foodporn #foodie #foodgasm #food #foodtacular #eaterla #bentacular #wannafork #lafoodie #nomnom #EEEEEATS #foodstagram #eats #igfood #yum #tastespotting #instafood #foodlove #foodpics #bentacular #eater #notyelpelite #foodphotography #foodlover #foodpic #lovefood #bentacularfood (at Valero) https://www.instagram.com/p/BowR-nvHE0_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jmv06383zy9n

It's almost becoming to be a birthday tradition that me and the BFF, @mario.marfori hang out together. This year, I decided to visit him, but I didn't know he was surprising me with a cabin at a really nice fishing resort. I am in heaven! What a great birthday month so far. #birthdaymonth #october (at Massanutten Resort) https://www.instagram.com/p/BopQiQEAGIc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14f5w2996uk30
