– It is still unusually warm in Southern California, it’s supposed to be 90 degrees this weekend. I hope our Halloween candies don’t melt. Because of the weather, we have been going to pumpkin patches in our sandals, shorts and linen shirts. At least we have stopped using the A/C at night and […]
Nutella and pumpkin, my trusty old friends that I seem to only see during Fall season. I have been making this pumpkin nutella bread for years, I bake it for friends and family and also make it whenever I do fundraising in a form of a bake sale. I’ve adapted it to my […]
I took a break from going to my Mom’s book club this summer, the schedule just didn’t work out, but I’m back. All The Light We Cannot See was the selection for the month, although I didn’t finish the book in time, I still had fun meeting with mommy friends, eating pizza and getting […]
After coming home from a weekend trip to San Francisco and indulging in the delicious food and eating my way thru the Ferry Building/Farmers Market, I came home with a happy heart and happy belly. I came home excited to cook again, but usually after each of my travels, I come home with a low […]
I know it’s Fall season now, but it still feels like summer in our neck of the woods. No complaints from me though. Today was the first day I baked in months. I can only turn on the oven when it is the coolest in the house, which is first thing in the morning. […]

America the beautiful. Beautiful day. Beautiful evening. Beautiful weather. Just beauty everywhere. Our 4th of July festivities this year was a family affair. We had a barbecue, swam in the pool and watched the fireworks in the evening. My nephew Jonah says hi. He is growing every minute and accumulated some chubbiness while we were […]
I made it to the gym early this morning and took Body Pump class. It was my first time doing the new release, which was launched at my gym two weekends ago. I like the new release because there’s a lot of variety. I actually finished the bicep track, when normally, I would have to […]
I woke up bright and early today excited to run at the park. The mornings have cooled down a little so it is actually nice to run outside without the scorching heat that I had to battle during the summer months. 4 Mile run = 3 mile jog and 1 mile alternating (1 min walk/1 […]

Oh, there was a […]
We have arrived at our road trip destination. Viva Las Vegas!! I am the designated driver for this trip so no pictures during the drive, but I did take a snapshot during a quick stop. Pretty much from L.A. to Las Vegas, it is 5 hours of driving with this scenery. Mountains and deserts. Last […]
I am on a mission to hang things on our walls. Besides printing pictures, I have been collecting print arts that I’ve found online these past few months. I am inspired to build a gallery wall, and have been pinning ideas on how I want it to be arranged. These are the print arts that […]
