Endless Mimosas
Mixers hosts a Sunday Brunch! Every Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. We serve up a unique blend of breakfast favorites. Now, the idea of a breakfast menu only one day a week can make some people a bit skeptical, but I am here to say, if I knew our brunch was going to turn out so phenomenal, I might have considered opening a breakfast joint instead. Call it “Scramblers” instead of “Mixers”!
Piccola Trattoria–From Sicily to Santa Clarita
For someone who loves food as much as I do, the perfect vacation includes a walk through the streets of Palermo, Sicily. This August I was lucky enough to spend some time at the famous Markets of Palermo—La Vucciria, Ballaro’, Capo and Borgo Vecchio. I started my trip off at La Vucciria, an open-air market that, being true to its name (Confusion in Sicilian), is riddled with the commotion of buyers and sellers making exchanges in loud, boisterous voices.

A Guy’s Take On Being Single in Santa Clarita
I would like to apologize to everyone who emailed me last month, wondering what happened to my column. I went on a one month sabbatical, and I had some time to think about dating in general. I also went on a few dates that, unfortunately, did not work out.
One day I just started reminiscing about the simpler times in my life. You know back in our twenties and thirties. It was nice thinking about the girls, and girlfriends I dated back then. That was such an easy going time, going on dates that the girl had pretty much one criteria for dating.

The Skinny on the Skinny Margarita
If you have been anywhere near cocktail service in the past few months you will hear at least one person inquire if the bartender can make a “Skinny Margarita”. No one re-invented the wheel, bars have just replaced “diet” with “skinny” to indicate a reduced calorie option. So what does that mean, really?
All Aboard for Fun!
Many Southern California residents take day-trips and are now seeking ways to contain it to one tank of gas. Rick Romero, popular newscaster with Los Angeles ABC Channel 7 featured Fillmore and Santa Paula recently in his One-Tank Getaways.

A Cupcake Stand Will Change the Whole Face of Your Next Party
Have you ever made cupcakes for a party or event and had really no place to put those delicious little cakes of heaven? Most people place them on normal plate or serving platter and set them on the table amongst all the other treats; but there’s one problem with that ... you can only fit so many on a plate, which means constant replenishment; and they don’t really stand out.
Fondue Anyone?
On my last trip overseas I stopped off in the small town of Interlaken on our way north through Switzerland. This beautiful mountain settlement is nestled between two massive lakes just south of Zurich. Our reason for this unscheduled detour… canyoning and fondue.

You Are What You Eat – Fresh or Frozen/Pre-Processed?
You take your spouse, date, family or friends out to dinner, order your food, and you get… television dinners? Certainly this is not what you expect from a restaurant, but did you know that most major restaurant chains use central processing kitchens to pre-make many menu items, freeze them in plastic bags, and ship it out to all their restaurants? This is how they control food cost, labor expense, and try to make sure of consistent taste in each restaurant. When you order, they thaw the pre-cooked food in microwaves or water, cut the bags open and put them on the grill or in a pan for a quick heat up to make it seem like it was made fresh.

An Ambassador’s Suggestions Bettering our City with some Seattle Wisdom
My hometown, Seattle, is a green haven where Seasonal Affective Disorder is a formidable plague and plaid flannel is layered under Northface fleece as a necessary precaution against frigid rain. It’s generally regarded as a pale caffeine addict’s paradise. There are no gang-dominated neighborhoods, but we do have Microsoft Country, which is equally dangerous because of the large concentration of overworked and slightly depressed software geniuses lurking about.
Unsurprisingly, my family’s impending move to Southern California aroused an inkling of trepidation.
