We are 7 days from Halloween and we still haven’t decided on our costumes. Me personally, I own three costumes and will start recycling them this year. We have a high employee turnover at my work that I figured, if I wear a costume I’ve worn 3 years ago, nobody is around to remember […]
Happy Halloween from our baby crab. The picture below was taken during Baby H’s fall festival event at his day care. It was the first time having candy and boy did he love it! I loved that his day care had this evening festivity, we got a chance to meet other parents and see […]
This year’s Halloween festivities was a little different from the years past. With a growing little pumpkin inside my belly, I avoided our annual trip to haunted houses and scary mazes, and opted for a more kid friendly (more calm) environment. It was our first time attending Mickey’s Halloween Party at Disneyland and it did not […]
Since the adults already dressed up this past weekend for Halloween, it was time for the kids to be their cute alter ego. Princess Tiana from Princess and the Frog movie says hello. My niece has been waiting all month long to wear her costume. Every time I saw her, she kept reminding me that […]

There’s no place most festive around our area than Disneyland. Now that Baby H is older, we are able to spend time at disney for longer hours (currently about 4-5 hours before he poops out and needs a long nap). We braved the crowds and spent an evening at disney on a weeknight and enjoyed […]
I am a morning person. I like waking up early and getting a lot of things accomplished before I head out the door for work. There’s nothing like a hot cup of tea or coffee and a tasty breakfast plate that gets me excited to start my day. I had a great start to my […]
I love cooking dishes that are considered “one-pot meals”. I like eating from a bowl and eating all the nutritious ingredients all mixed together. Food doesn’t have to be pretty, they just have to be nutritious. I call a meal-in-a-bowl “rustic”. One of my Sunday food-prep is to cook a pot of quinoa to eat […]
I bake because I love it. Dare I say that I love baking slightly more than the finished product? I just love the process. But I also bake when I’m stressed. I bake late at night when I should be resting, because it helps me shut down my busy mind and just going thru the […]
In 98 days, I will be running the inaugural Disneyland Tinker Bell Half Marathon. My first and only half marathon race so far was in December 2009 at the inaugural Rock N Roll Las Vegas. I wanted to stay local this time around. I couldn’t be more excited to be training for a race that […]
I haven’t done my nails since summer but last week, I wanted to add a little shine and color to my nails. I chose Essie’s Shearling Darling nail polish and I think it’s the perfect holiday plum and hue. Picture taken during a date night with the hubby 🙂
Here’s how I organize my outfits for this capsule: 1.) Listing all the possible mix & match outfits on paper 2.) Using stylebook to visually create the outfits 3.) Below – put the outfits and organize in the calendar. I wanted to make sure I wear all my pieces and avoid repeats on a weekly […]
I have been wearing contact lens for almost 8 years now and I wore reading glasses a few years before that. Lately, I’ve had painful irritation everyday that started usually around late afternoon. I thought my eyes were just dry because my office job has me sitting in front of the computer all day long. […]
