How is hump day Wednesday treating you? Thanks for all the comments on the last post about Halloween at Disneyland. It’s really festive and beautiful right now at Disney. If you have the opportunity to go, I would suggest making time for it. And if you can’t go, I’ll take more pictures and share them […]
Since we have a long drive ahead of us to get to the cabin this weekend, I wanted to make these nut bars so we have healthy and filling snacks while in the car or during our long days at the lake. These are hearty bars that are filling and tasty. I made them this […]
Protein Smoothie, Protein Shakes, Jay Robb Protein Powder
I have been lacking sleep the last few days. My body is just out of whack, it’s obvious and I can totally feel it. Last Thursday night I stayed up until 2am putting finishing touches on the surprise montage I was going to show in Vegas. While in Vegas, both Friday and Saturday nights were spent […]

Christmas was sweet and simple this year (well, as simple as we can get it), just what I was hoping for. There were plenty of festive things I wanted to do that didn’t happen, but that’s ok, next year I just have to plan better. Something that I decided last minute was our holiday card […]
Our summer bucket list this year involves a lot of planned family time, with a few family road trips together and some wish list of places to visit. Visiting an aquarium was on our list and since our little hula girl/my niece had a performance at the Long Beach aquarium with her dance group, it […]
I wanted to share this cake recipe that I’ve made a few times already, in time for Valentine’s Day festivities. This is a semi-homemade recipe because it uses a cake mix, and with the addition of the right ingredients, it transforms into a dense, moist and extra chocolaty cake. It’s the ultimate chocolate […]
We took a family road trip last week, we drove seven hours north and spent the weekend at one of my favorite coastal town, Monterey, CA. The hubby and I have made a trip there almost every year (except for the year the baby was born), and it was great to share it with […]
Today had so much potential. We had plans to go hiking, stopped by the farmers market afterwards and maybe grill some fresh corn when we got home. Well, it’s not happening. After being spoiled with mid 70s temperature the last few weeks, the rain surprised us today. Instead of showing you some pictures from […]
I try to schedule a weekend once a month where my social calendar is completely clear and I am free to do whatever I want. I usually schedule this weekend for when the husband is working both Saturday and Sunday. I do things that makes me happy, like exploring a new bakery that I haven’t […]
At the beginning of the year, I told myself to try a new recipe every week. Any recipe, whether as complicated as baking bread from scratch, to dinner recipes and as simple as simple side dish or a smoothie recipe. It’s just a simple challenge that I try to do, to avoid ruts in the […]
I woke up this morning and didn’t really feel like going to the gym. Probably because it was cold outside and the covers where holding me back from getting up. Whenever I have days like these, I do some tricks to get myself motivated to workout. I put the workout clothes in the dryer to […]
