Sandy Eats

Hindsight is always 20/20 and luckily I foresaw the future and prepped appropriately 😉If you’ve been following my Instagram stories this weekend, you know I was at Outside Lands eating all of the food (and also volunteering at a food booth). I took today off […]

Ube is having its moment right now. It’s been popular in Asian cuisine for a long time but currently trending as a popular flavor. No complaints from me since I love ube. Even Trader Joe’s has jumped on the band wagon with their ube ice […]

Growing up, I loved eating Hot Pockets for lunch. I would say I practically lived off of them during my teenage years. There was something so amazing about throwing a frozen item into the microwave in this little sleeve and something crispy and yummy came out. […]
