{recipe} cream cheese brownies for halloween
We are 7 days from Halloween and we still haven’t decided on our costumes. Me personally, I own three costumes and will start recycling them this year. We have a high employee turnover at my work that I figured, if I wear a costume I’ve worn 3 years ago, nobody is around to remember […]
Pretzel Treats & Baby Shower Prep
To keep my workout from being boring, I am always looking for new cardio routines. I’ll try them at the gym and will repeat the ones I love. Currently,I have about four HIIT workouts that I’ve printed and keep in my gym bag. I found a few workouts from a recent Shape magazine, the one where […]
Meatless Monday: Maple Dijon Baked Tempeh
I hope everyone had a great weekend. I had a sweet tooth this weekend and enjoyed eating a few treats, including chocolate covered pretzel with toffee from Disneyland. But onto a new recipe for meatless Monday…. I first read about tempeh a few years ago when I read The Kind Diet cookbook. Tempeh is made […]
Coconut Pineapple Banana Bread
On Saturday mornings when we don’t have anything planned for the day, I come home after my workout with baking on my mind. I take my time making and eating my breakfast and then I read cooking magazines and go over recipes on my laptop that I have bookmarked during the week. I think of […]
{side dish} – zucchini & carrots
As the weather heats up, my time in the kitchen is becoming less and less. I try to make Sunday the designated cooking day, which means, it’s the hottest day in the house. But there are times where I really want to bake and can’t get myself to turn on the oven when I get […]
Pumpkin Cherry Granola
A few weeks ago I participated in Rebecca’s bake sale to raise money for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. I donated 2 jars of customizable granola for the sale. The 1st & 2nd highest bids won the granola. I am a coconut lover but I understand not everyone is fond of coconut like me. So […]
Day of Thanks
Our day of thanks was filled with time spent with family. A day filled with moments of reflection for everything we are thankful for. I am thankful for my health. I am thankful for my husband and our home. I am thankful for my friends and family. I am thankful to have a blessed life […]
California is gorgeous! I can’t wait to visit there someday.
April, there is so much to do here. You will definitely enjoy yourself. Hope you can come travel and visit my home state.
Love these pictures!! Looks like you are having a blast!!
Glad you’re having fun! The jumping picture is so cute
so much fun! i can’t wait to see more pics. loving these! 🙂
Holy bejesus you can jump HIGH! Love that pic!
Keep up the good times 🙂
When I read your comment and saw “Holy bejesus” on my phone, last Friday, you made me laugh out loud.
I played varsity volleyball throughout high school, that’s where I got the skills to jump high 🙂
I’m so in love with your clothes, you seem to have my kind of style.. or actually a style I wish I had 😀
Anne, I am a bargain shopper. That yellow top was $3 at a sample sale and the boots are from Ross or Marshall’s. You’ve got style girl, just need to rock it. Part of the reason I like traveling is to wear different style of seasonal clothes 🙂
wow, awesome pictures! the vineyard looks amazing!
Sunny, thanks. The fall colors on the winery is so beautiful. Never been to Napa when the wineries are yellow and orange colors.
Napa is so beautiful! I have only been there once, but is that first picture of the cooking school? I think I remember eating lunch there…
Gorgeous photo of you on the sidebar. You are a knockout, especially in pink!
Thank you so much Ameena. The first picture of the building that looks like a chateau is Domaine Carneros Winery, I believe they are famous for their champagne. Oh, I’m intrigue about this cooking school you speak of? What’s the name of it? There are really cheap flights from Long Beach to San Francisco this season (as low as $19) that I might be making another trip soon.
Wow it is so Beautiful over there, I just have to go that is how I picture it and more. 🙂
Hey you are funny you jumped pretty high. Love your personality I am so shy it’s only with a few that I can be silly and let my hair down. I need to loosen up it’s so much fun being like that though.
Glad to see you are enjoying yourself.
😛
Annette, yes it was beautiful. We lucked out because the weather was perfect. I don’t remember wearing short sleeves in San Francisco during any of my trips.
I played volleyball throughout high school and that’s where I learned to jump really high because I was a hitter and also a blocker. Yes, I don’t mind being silly because it’s just all fun and games. I do get a little shy when I have to be in front of a lot of people, but at the wineries, it wasn’t too crowded so it was fine.
YAY! I see Evie!
