After the rain we had this week, the sun finally came out in time for the weekend. We wanted to soak up the rays before the next rain comes our way. We spent the early part of the evening in Anaheim’s Garden Walk. It’s a few blocks from Disneyland and not too far way from […]
The sun is shining and the weather is warm around here. It doesn’t feel like October, but the calendar says it is. We are having weird weather where it is still very warm during the day but it significantly cools down in the evening. Oddly, it’s still warm enough that I could have gone to […]
Happy Wednesday to you all 🙂 The weather has been cool around here so I find myself craving hot food and savory foods. Of course, I always make room for treats with a side of tea. Here goes this weeks eats… I made a batch of these Coconut {Chickpea} Waffles this past weekend and I’ve been eating […]
I created this pancake and topping combination during my run today. During my cool down, my mind started thinking about breakfast. I had a nice and short run this morning, trying to keep my legs fresh for my 10K Turkey Trot tomorrow morning. I have been eating a lot of red food lately and it […]
I am still on a pumpkin high. After incorporating pumpkin on several creations in the kitchen lately, I am still not sick of it. That’s good, because there was a big sale last week and I stocked up. The nice folks at Julian Bakery sent me a few loaves of their bread to sample. They […]

Pregnancy Babble – 3rd Trimester Now that I am well into my third trimester, I am seeing more changes in the last few weeks with my body and how I’m feeling than I did the entire pregnancy. One of the things that is happening lately is the lack of sleep. I can go to […]
We got our tree this year about 2 weeks before Christmas. Little man enjoyed helping out this year and running around all the trees. Here it is, in all it’s decorated glory! We picked a smaller this year because our little man is much more mobile and likes to climb and jump on things. […]
Even though I have my favorite holiday season dishes, I intentionally try new recipes every year. I look forward to discovering new recipes and trying new things in the kitchen. Sometimes I try something new and I find it ok, so I either go back to my favorite dish the next year or keep looking […]
My goal is to stream line the process of getting ready for work every day, and I think it would help a ton if I simplify my closet. I wear business professional clothes Mon-Fri, so majority of what’s currently hanging in my closet are work clothes. Casual/weekend clothes are folded in my dresser. I need […]
Remember the time I received pears directly from a California Farmer? and I made delicious Pear Muffins with it? Well, I am working again with California Grown, they are a nonprofit organization that works to get the word out about local, California-grown produce and flowers, to understand what is important to Californians like me. I’m helping […]
One of the things I enjoyed the most during wedding planning were the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) projects that I completed. I love doing arts and crafts, I love the creative process and I love that I can see the finish product right away. When our wedding guests arrived in Puerto Vallarta, we gave each of them […]

I’ve been looking forward to this weekend for awhile. It’s my first three day holiday weekend off since I started a new role with my work. I started the weekend being active meeting friends for a hike. Running outdoors is sooooo much better than running on the treadmill. I’ll take trail running any day. The […]
