I made healthy cookies. They are made without added sugar, the sweetness comes from banana and shredded coconut. I made these to enjoy with my afternoon tea at work and also to bring during my recent trip to Portland. I’m planning to make another batch to stock up my freezer stash 🙂 The first […]
My pantry is filled with large size mason jars, I buy them in 12 packs at Target. I have slowly replaced our plastic storage containers with the glass mason jars to store our grains, beans, nuts and homemade granola I bake and stock up on the weekend. I have been making granola in big batches […]
Thank you for your sweet comments on the blog’s new design. I remember when I was little, and I would get excited when I have a fresh new notebook to write on. I would draw colorful and bright flowers on it and would wear out my colored pens. I feel the same way with the new […]
On Saturday mornings when we don’t have anything planned for the day, I come home after my workout with baking on my mind. I take my time making and eating my breakfast and then I read cooking magazines and go over recipes on my laptop that I have bookmarked during the week. I think of […]
I know a lot of people say that we don’t really notice the change of seasons here in Southern California. But I disagree. I think that if you pay close enough attention to your surroundings, you can see the change in the seasons. I found a pumpkin patch that our farmer’s market had set-up. You […]

Ever since the food marathon that is called Foodbuzz Festival this past weekend, I have been craving a lot of fruits and vegetables. Well, more so than usual. I have been really busy since coming back from the trip, catching up on work and study. I still don’t feel like I’m caught up with my […]
I mentioned last week that I was doing something very exciting this past weekend that was wedding related. I was very excited to shop for my wedding dress. My mom, my aunt and my girlfriend Sarah came with me to try on dresses. I should mention ahead of time that I will not be showing […]
On my post this week, I mentioned about eating colorful foods and mentioned that I was having stuffed bell peppers for dinner. You can read more about it here. I have been wanting to make this recipe ever since my trip to Costco where I had an early surprise and saw Santa. Here is the […]
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 […]
Not technically Wordless Wednesday. I gotta say something, always 🙂 These are pictures from the island of Boracay in the Philippines. The island is very small, I think it’s only a few miles wide. One of the best beaches I’ve ever been to. I’ve been to Mexico and Caribbean beaches. When I went for a […]
