Thursday Things – Costa Rica

As many of you know, I was in Miami last week. I attended the BlogHer Food conference there, on behalf of STAR Fine Foods. Getting there was a little bit crazy. I had to get up at 4am on Thursday in order to catch my flight. After a bumpy and crazy landing, the airport was…
