One of the reasons I love Fall is because it’s the season of many festivities. Since leaves don’t really change color in L.A., the first sign of fall for me are the colorful pumpkins. I see them being displayed at stores, then next I see the pumpkin patch locations in the neighborhood but the biggest […]
A few weeks ago I participated in Rebecca’s bake sale to raise money for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. I donated 2 jars of customizable granola for the sale. The 1st & 2nd highest bids won the granola. I am a coconut lover but I understand not everyone is fond of coconut like me. So […]

A few weeks ago, my aunt cooked a very simple okra dish. It was simple, with just a few ingredients and it was very tasty. After eating it a few days in a row, I told her “I can eat this everyday”. If I can find okra easily (frozen ones don’t taste as good), then […]
I’m not ready to say goodbye to summer yet. I feel like she is going away soon. But I hope she stays for a few more weeks. I am trying to hold on to summer but I think everyone is else is ready to move on. We had another scorching weekend. During our Disney Sunday […]
Yesterday was officially the first day of summer according to the calendar, but for me, summer around here starts Memorial Day weekend. I have a summer bucket list that I want to do this year, the list is in my head, and it’s not too long since we have the baby and are limited with […]
