I often find the hubby and our little man swimming in the pool when I get home from work. I’ll chat and play with them for a bit and then I head over to the garden patch and check on the tomato plants. I check on the plants a few times a week and harvest […]
Summer is here! It’s welcoming us with a heatwave this week, it hit 108 degrees yesterday in our neighborhood. We spend most of our summer weekends having family and friends over to swim in our backyard. Personally, if I’m spending the day at the pool, I like to graze all day long and make recipes […]
Wow, it’s already Nov 11, can’t believe it. The first week of every month is always a blur for me, it’s the busiest time at work every month, so the whole week just passes by really quickly. So now it’s the second week and I’m coming up for fresh air and have some time […]

I travelled to Portland a few weeks ago. The purpose of the travel was for pure exploration and to be adventurers. To go to a city where we didn’t know anyone, sightsee and explore a new place and check out the food scene. See, my high school friends and I all love to travel and […]
I loved October. It felt balanced and all around good vibes. Fall décor at the house. Loving the white small pumpkins. We did the Breast Cancer Walk, my brothers and sisters joined me and the weather was great. I’m thinking of framing that palm tree picture I took below. I wore pink shoes, pink jacket […]
