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 […]

Last fall I went on a travel-spree with friends, I guess you can say, I had wanderlust. I had some vacation days, great deals on hotels and all I needed was to pick a place and go. I picked Seattle. I like organizing group trips, creating itineraries and researching places to visit and food to […]
What took me so long to post a salad recipe in January? I mean, are we all detoxing from the sugar rush of last year’s holiday season? I know I am. I’m still trying to kick the habit of eating sweets every afternoon, even if it’s a mini-size chocolate treat. I find that if I […]
We had a lot of weddings in our calendar this year. I was really excited for the summer weddings by the beach. In July, we drove north along the coast to Santa Barbara. This was the first beach wedding we attended since our own beach wedding last year. Lots of great memories flooded our minds […]

This weekend we celebrated my niece’s 3rd birthday. My niece Jazaleia (Jazzy for short) is my only niece and the only grandchild. She is the cutest and most adorable little girl and all her Aunties spoils her with attention. I love spending time with her. She’s at that age where you can have a […]
Hello friend 🙂 I hope your weekend is going well. With a newborn at home, my days and nights are starting to blur these days. I constantly look at my phone to check what day/date it is. But I do know it’s April, and this month will be a special month for me since I will […]
For someone who loves to bake, it’s amazing that I haven’t made a lot of different kind of bake goods. My comfort zone in my kitchen and for using my oven is usually cookies, snack bars, quick breads and muffins. I want to venture out of my comfort zone. I want to try something new. […]
I’m in the home stretch of my pregnancy. 38 weeks and counting this week. I’m still working. Tomorrow was going to be my last day, but I’m still feeling good and my doctor warned that baby might come a week late, so I’ve extended work for a few more days or so. Here are snapshots […]
