Before I met my husband, I’ve never had fresh and live Christmas tree. I grew up using a fake tree that we re-used every year. I guess it was easier for my dad to rely on a boxed tree that he can assemble easily. Having five girls in the house, he really did not have […]
When my girlfriends and I get together during our annual holiday party, it has become a tradition to give each other small and thoughtful gifts. Instead of bringing one big gift for secret santa gift exchange, we share the love with everyone with our small gifts. After we eat and have desserts and chit chat, […]

(this is a test post from my phone. I apologize for any errors in the format) We drove 5 hours away from home and found ourselves in the middle of this. Where the snow meets water. Where I dug out my winter clothes, in the middle of summer, to pack for this trip. I’m blogging […]
The happiest of all holidays is here. This time is so special for us, we get to see our family often and be merry with them, I’m planning to document more throughout this month, so there will be more, BUT short posts in December. At the end of the month, I will compile everything in […]
working…..long hours now, getting ready for maternity leave soon. I’m going on my maternity leave in a month (when I am 38 weeks pregnant), so work has been very busy lately. I’m putting in a lot of hours, training and putting finishing touches on some projects. I am really looking forward to just resting a […]
I was in San Francisco last weekend to attend a friend’s wedding. The day of the wedding started really early. I woke up from my ice cream coma the night before feeling my sugar hangover. I was the first one up for make-up at 7am. Pastries Galore in our bridal suite. My breakfast choice. After […]

We are going on vacation and heading south of the border! Be… Right… Back… See you next week 🙂

I made these last year when I hosted Friendsgiving, it was a great touch to have a festive drink ready once the guests started trickling […]
