I am enjoying making and eating all sorts of different dishes while on Whole30. I went into this with the attitude that I am willing to try and make effort to try new food, or it can get boring really fast. I don’t remember the last time I bought purple cabbage, maybe years? This week, […]
I mentioned on this post how my sugar consumption had become a daily habit. It first started around Halloween last year and lasted until early January this year. It was just so hard to stop. I have no problems with enjoying sugar on special occasion but eating it daily had wreck havoc on my moods, […]
I had a rare 3 day weekend this past week. I love my job but I hate that the holidays we have off from work are the major holidays only. I can count in one hand our work holidays, sigh! I was already in celebration mood on Friday, we stopped by the donut shop to […]
I love attending our mommy and me events but I especially love it when we have it outdoors and visit a place we have never been before. We recently met-up at an arboretum and wandered around the place, letting the little ones play, while us moms caught up with each other. I’m kind of embarrassed […]

It’s February and I am surrounded by love and romance. Amy’s bridal shower was this past weekend and the celebration was beautiful. What made it extra special was the reunion among all my closest high school friends, a few travelled from San Francisco and Hawaii. Reunited and it felt so good. We’ve all known each […]
Happy weekend everyone! I love trying new things, especially new food and new workouts. Here are some of the new things I’ve tried lately. Kettle ball workouts. I love these workouts because it combines cardio and muscle toning in the same workout. It’s a fun change to my workout routine. It also left me sore […]
The last few days I have been enjoying my oatmeal with a side of Chocolate Bread Pudding. May I say that these tasted even better the day after? I thought it couldn’t get better the first time around. Old fashion oats, vanilla protein powder, Trader Joe’s Chunky Apple Sauce and fresh blueberries. I mix my […]
Wow, what a great trip we had at Mammoth Lakes this weekend. I will be recapping the trip soon including plenty of pictures.
