I travelled to Portland in January and I sorted thru my pictures recently to work on my travel album. I realize I didn’t want to print every picture I took, or the album would come out too thick once finished. Then I got to thinking, I could post a ton of pictures on the blog […]
I’ve never once considered making my own bread, that is until I started dating my hubby and he made me a home made bread. He used a bread machine to make the dough and I watched how easy it was to make delicious bread at home. Ever since then, we’ve made many breads at […]
I am in love with all the spring season colors that are popping up right now. This time last year, I was in survival mode taking care of a newborn that was only a few weeks old. This year, I can appreciate my surroundings so much more. It’s amazing how better sleep and consistently working […]
I’m surrounded with so many signs of springs. New flowers and pretty blooms, burst of yellow colors everywhere like these lemons I purchased at Costco. I wish we had a lemon tree, but since we don’t, I’ll be happy purchasing them at the farmers market or Costco. Any recommendations for lemon recipes? I think I’m […]

I loved documenting my life (hello blog!) and what prevents me from doing it more often is the time it takes to do it. I’m always finding ways to do a shortcut, but I want to do shortcuts only if I also love the end results. This post was inspired by a post I saw […]
Here’s what we have been up to lately….. We had a brunch gathering on New Year’s Day at my sister’s house. We ate and chatted while watching the Rose Parade on TV. Which one was our favorite float?….DISNEY!! (of course). I loved seeing the characters walking along side the children, and the fireworks […]
The last few weeks I have enjoyed the fresh harvest of pomegranates. I was picked by POM Wonderful as 1 of 100 to host a POM Party in celebration of the pomegranate harvest season. Fresh pomegranates are available only from September to January, but the delicious, nutrient-rich juice is obtainable year-round. I have been eating, […]
completing the 12 week workout program from Sweat With Kayla app. It’s hard BUT it works and I learned that consistency is the key in order to see results. I’m starting over again with Week 1 and doing another round. This time, I feel stronger and can complete most moves without any modification. […]
With my love for all things coconut, I have to admit that using coconut flour has been a hit or miss for me. I’m trying to start collecting “hit” recipes. I have a bag of coconut flour in my pantry that I was so excited to use when I first purchased it. I once made a mistake […]
One of my favorite treats that I made this holiday season was a half cookie and half peppermint bark. I know Christmas is over but I’m not over eating peppermint yet. I’ve made these three times in a span of two weeks. I’m a little obsessed, just a little. I think I will be making […]
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes This book is about Will and Louisa. What Will doesn’t know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they’re going to change the other for all time. I loved this book. I made a […]
Passing the time….. I’ve started my maternity leave this week and the house is cleaner than ever. Chris and I have been working non-stop to clean everything and get things ready for when the baby comes. It sometimes feels like it is Christmas Eve. I will have the biggest gift and blessing right around […]
