My little man turned 2 in March. Last year we threw a huge party, so to change the pace, we kept it simple this year. We invited immediate family over for a late morning brunch and cake. At 24 months, H knows that the week was a special week of celebration for him, balloons and […]
One of the easiest thing for me to make for breakfast is oatmeal. It’s even easier when it’s prepared ahead of time. I try to make a few dishes on Sundays, I call it my Sunday-prep-time, for us to eat throughout the week. Now that the temps are heating up around here, it is best […]
I made a simple pumpkin oatmeal bake on a Sunday afternoon, with the intentions of having it for breakfast for the next 5 days until Friday. Lets just say that by Wednesday, it was all gone. This happened last year, when I was 4.5 months pregnant. The first trimester was over and I was happy […]
I am so glad I took the time to cook and bake some food before the baby arrived. It has really helped me to continue to eat healthy food after we brought our new baby boy home. Sometimes food is the last thing on our minds, while we continue to learn and adjust to our […]
We’ve had beautiful weather around here. I am enjoying it while it lasts. Heard there’s a storm coming soon. Admiring the last of the ripe oranges. They are sour though 😦 And enjoying the last of the beautiful plumerias. It might be the last bloom until next season. My mother-in-law gave us a few plumeria […]

We had plenty of rain this past weekend so I took advantage of us being forced indoors to do some baking. I also had plenty of babysitters since my mom and brothers stayed over, so I went thru my list of recipes to make and picked one that looked good at the moment. I […]
This past weekend, we drove ourselves to Hollywood to spend one hot summer amongst the tourist. We had matinee tickets to watch the Cirque Du Soleil show, Iris. It is currently playing at Dolby Theatre (formerly knows as Kodak Theatre). We had great seats in the Orchestra section. No pictures were allowed but I was […]
I am San Francisco bound this morning on my way to the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival. I’m at the airport waiting for my flight to San Francisco. My flight is delayed so might as well take advantage of the free internet 🙂 It’s another beautiful day in SoCal, sad to leave the sunshine but I’m prepared […]
Happy New Year everybody! We had a mellow celebration welcoming the new year and travelled the first weekend of January. I’m so happy to start the new year doing something I love. Below is the my year in books for 2015. I really stuck to reading this past year and I’m so happy I did. […]
Being a newlywed, the most common questions you hear are? How was the wedding? How was the honeymoon? How’s married life treating you? When are you going to have a baby? I’ve had my share of conversations with friends and family with all the questions above. Sometimes I give short answers, sometimes lengthy answers, it […]
What are you looking forward to this summer? I’m torn between keeping things simple and not to plan every weekend in the summer, but I also want to take advantage of the season and want to socialize every weekend. I’m sure I’ll find the right balance. Usually when we have people over for pool […]
POM Wonderful sent me a box of pomegranates. It’s pomegranate season and I have been enjoying making different recipes that incorporate pomegranates. The holiday season is here and I welcomed it with open arms with this festive loaf. This bread is definitely different with nutty taste of pistachios, the unique tartness of the pomegranate and […]
I was excited to be outdoors again today. It has been a chilly week and I’ve been a hermit. I get cold easily so when Chris said he was feeling cold (he usually runs hot), you can bet that I was freezing. Ok, not really freezing. That’s just the drama queen coming out of me. […]
