Port Aransas is about four hours away from Austin and is one of the longest barrier islands along the Texas coast. It's now become a fishing, beach and resort village, and the weather is incredibly nice (though be prepared for extreme humidity and lots of sunscreens, or sunburns, in our case).

My mom loves to bake, and she's frequently sending me photos of her latest creations as I stay in my dorm eating ramen and mac & cheese. *cries* Anyways, this time, she made Zebra Stripe Japanese Cotton Cheesecake, which looks amazingly good, so I thought I'd share it with y'all too!
My three-week long trip (that happened a long time ago!) to Italy & Switzerland introduced me to a few dishes and snacks that I'd like to share with you. While I'm not certain I can provide you any recipes, I promise they're very good, and that if you have the chance, should definitely go try some! Hope you enjoy the photos as we reminisce of the past -- and look forward to the future!
