In-TARO-pting the feed to refresh my intro!
I'm Lariza, born and raised in Italy, of Filipino origin, and have been in the US for a while now.
I started The Sleepy Foodie to document my adventures and encourage people to get out of their comfort zones. My main creative outlets through music, food puns, and dance.
Currently, my reason for being sleepy is being a mom of two ๐ถ๐ป๐ง๐ป
If youโre new here, nice to meet ya! If youโve been following me for a while, hello again!
Thank you all for following! Say hi in the comments if you read all the way through โค๏ธ
THANK YOU FOR AN EXCITING SEASON! ๐
What a thrill itโs been to see the city covered in purple! Even if Iโm not a big sports person, I canโt deny Iโve been entertained and rooting for our cityโs team.
Canโt wait to see the beam in the sky again, but for now, weโll drink purple drinks!

Southgate Plaza] is a definite stop for when I get cravings for boba, need Asian groceries, have an itch for shopping, or Iโm getting hangry.
And Iโve recently added to my list! For about $30 you can eat as much as you want from veggies, to seafood, to prime aged lamb, natural spring lamb, soft-serve ice-cream, and premium American Kobe beef!

Lessons learned for 2022: Some businesses may be inadvertently closed due to holidays, short staffing, health concerns and so forth. You can feel disappointed but accept those redirections with grace and patience.

Apple Hill may be open 365 days a year but double check that the specific farm youโre going to is actually open when you go. This was stop #3 ๐๐๐ฝ

I co-could not pass on coconut. Iโve been dreaming of drinking and eating one right from its shell, so I was super excited to drive by this farm stand on the way to Akaka Falls.

Pros: paper straws, they open the coconuts so you can enjoy the meat
Cons: I drank and ate it too fast. I had to share with lil sleepy foodie (๐)

Hi ๐
๐จ๐จ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ! I recently started a new job that would refocus my career and combine my interests, but Motherhood and working full-time means Iโm running on coffee and naps 24/7 (but not really, since Iโm still nursing ๐คฑ๐ป). It also means I have taken time to rest and focus on being present and not on social media so much.โฃ
โขโฃ
In light of the recent news of taking ownership of her health and taking a step back, I am so happy to see weโre in a new era where rest and mental health is becoming a priority even in the professional world! โฃ
โขโฃ
So what Iโm saying is.. donโt feel guilty if you take a break or slow down. Go ahead and chill! ๐๐ฝ
๐ต Let me serenade the streets of L.A. From Oakland to Sac-town, the Bay Area and back down ๐ถ
โข
After I graduated from UCLA, the thought of moving back to Sacramento bothered me. I liked LA, its food scene, the attractions, and the museums! Years later, Sacramento has grown, and I have too.
โข
I witnessed the food and events scene flourish, and I became an active member of it!
Where would I even be if I didnโt make Sacramento my home?
โข
Whatโs your Sacramento story? Which area are you from?
IRON go out to eat as often but when I do..
โข
One thing thatโs hard to do as a parent to a newborn is to enjoy time alone from them! It seriously takes planning..and enough patience to allow for flexibility. Thank goodness we have grandparents who love to babysit! ๐

Letโs (Tik) TOK about New Yearโs Resolutions! _________ Hi Food Lovers! If you didnโt know, I took a break last month to take care of family and spend more time with them. Taking a break when youโre overwhelmed is ABSOLUTELY OK. Your time is precious and shouldnโt be dictated by others. Whether you need a cup of coffee on your own or a whole week to yourself. You do you! ________ But now Iโm back, reenergized, a year older (it was my birthday recently) and with lots of creative energy to spill out!! Letโs do this thing! HAPPY 2020!
Happy Dancegiving! __________ Hereโs one way to burn off all those calories! _________ #unameitchallenge #jabbawockeez

Hi, ciao, hola, I am Lariza aka TheSleepyFoodie! Thank you for being part of my journey. My goal is to use food as a medium to bring people together and connect over similarities and differences. I was born and raised in Milan, Italy and coming to Sacramento was a huge cultural shock for me. I knew almost no one and knew nothing but thanks to people inviting me into their lives and introducing me to the American culture (guess what my favorite thing to explore was? Ha! Food.), Iโve learned to appreciate Sacramento and the United States. I created this account to encourage others to be involved with the local food scene and to show that there ARE so many things to do wherever you might be.
I value genuine interactions and curiosity. My passion is dancing, exploring, and learning cultures. I like food puns too. This is more than a passion project, itโs now part of my lifestyle, and Iโm going to explore ways to blend all my areas of interests together.
Whether you need a food or event companion, or help boosting your personal or business social media presence, LETโS CONNECT, CREATE, and COLLABORATE!
