I’m a huge Friends TV show fan. I own collections of DVD from that show and I even have the book that highlighted their last season. I miss that show so much. I still watch the reruns on TV whenever I catch it. If you watch that show, you know that each episode was called […]
This past summer (and this year in general) has been the best of times. Having returned from a month long travel, both for our destination wedding in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and for our honeymoon, island hopping in the Philippines…..I wanted to talk (and put into writing) about why I love to travel and why I always […]

Ever since Monday, I haven’t been feeling well. My beverage of choice has been fresh ginger tea with honey. Sometimes I make it really strong and it’s spicy, sometimes a little light and with more honey. I’ve also been craving comfort food. Chocolate gives me comfort. I have been adding chocolate shavings on top of […]
This post is a long time coming (literally almost a year old). I had good intentions in showing all the DIY projects I did for our wedding, but my schedule got busy and life moved on. The last few months, I received a few requests for the key holder templates that I posted here. It made […]
I’ve seen these fun paint and wine events for awhile now and I’ve always wanted to try it. A quick group text among my girlfriends and we made it happen. We got news that my friend E was flying down from San Francisco and she wanted to celebrate her birthday doing Paint Nite. The event […]

Overnight, I became an auntie to my baby nephew Jonah. He was born at 1am today. Happy Birthday little guy! A picture of me and my very pregnant younger sister during her baby shower a few weeks ago. I can’t believe she is a mom now. I grew up with my 3 younger sisters. Then […]
After a week of being in the hospital, my mom is back home with us. She was discharged yesterday after her tests came out negative. We are still watching her very closely. She will continue to see her doctors regularly and soon she will be wearing a heart monitor device so the doctors can keep […]
I used to be indecisive, until I had baby. When you are a new mom, there is no time for being indecisive, you just do it and hope it will be good enough. It is good enough, because it was your best at the moment. So pre-baby, I used to take weeks to decide […]
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 […]
