A Day To Remember

Yesterday, a decade later…we still remember.

I spent the weekend doing what I love, with the people that I love.

Doing what we love.

Taking nothing for granted.

That’s the best way to remember is to not take anything for granted and to spend it with the people you love…. <3333

  Thanks Annette. I was thinking that how I felt on the anniverary of 9/11 should be how I feel every day, not just on a day like that. I should try harder to not take things for granted. Sunday was a good reminder of that.

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 […]

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 […]
