I had a wonderful birthday celebration yesterday. Thank you to everyone who greeted me and sent birthday wishes my way 🙂 Normally, I would plan to travel around my birthday, but with the wedding and our trip to Mexico being a month away, we decided to stay local. It was low key, relaxing and just […]
homemade ice pops: yogurt strawberry & chunky monkey
I’ve made two batches of homemade ice pops in the last month and I’ve found many more flavors I would like to try throughout the summer. So far, the ones I’ve made are pretty healthy….healthy enough that I’m fine with my toddler eating it for breakfast. I want to make bigger batches of the […]
Pear and Walnut Muffins
Fragrant pears (California Grown) and walnuts make a very delicious combination. I loved the soft and chunky pears in the muffins. They are mildly sweet, perfect for breakfast or afternoon snack with tea. Something new that I’ve not done before in recipes, use walnuts…. …. and grind them up before adding it with the dry […]
The Holidays Are Here

I’m baking and getting ready for tomorrow while Chris just called and reserved his two pies 🙂 We have three Thanksgiving party to go to, same as last year. One for lunch and two around dinner time. It’s going […]
Black Bean Cocoa Quinoa
I was at Wholefood’s recently and while browsing the bulk bin aisle, I wanted to purchase an ingredient that I have never tried before. I saw the red quinoa and started scooping it into a bag. I’ve had quinoa before but never had the red kind. I heard it is supposed to be nuttier than […]

– We had back-to-back-to-back pool parties this past holiday weekend. It was great to invite our families and friends, and to spend time with them all day at the pool. We love having the kids over and summer is a great time in between the holiday season, for us to get together including our […]
Lemon Date Oatmeal Bar
When I first started the blog, I knew very little about designing a blog. I didn’t spend a lot of time fretting about the design because I just wanted to get started. I just wanted a medium where I can talk about the fun stuff that happens in life, a place where I can post […]
Oatmeal Raisin Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
Happy first day of April to everyone! I’m excited that it’s April because it’s my birthday month 🙂 It is hot, hot, hot in here. Yesterday our temps reached 90 degrees and it was the first time I slept with the bedroom door open and windows open. I didn’t realize our neighbors got a new […]
Healthy Coconut 
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!
