Happy Easter friends! Whatever you are celebrating today, hope it will be a fun day for you. Just want to share a quick recap and a few pictures from my Bridal Shower last night! I will do a full post this week with all the wonderful details. My friends did a really great job with […]
My cousin got married recently and the whole family was in attendance. To avoid being interrupted during the open bar, I let my niece use my camera so that she wouldn’t tug at my dress every minute begging to play with my toy. This week, I was playing with my camera and planned to empty […]
I noticed today’s date is 1.11.11. A lot of brides try to make their wedding date a unique one, so I won’t be surprise if there are a lot of weddings happening today. Slow Things Down One of my new year’s resolution was to slow it down. Most of the time I rushed thru my […]
Accidental tasty salad. Sometimes random leftovers make great meals. The week is coming to an end, which means I am trying to eat all the leftovers before cooking a whole new batch of dishes. A mish mash of flavors that surprisingly went well together. A bed of arugula and fresh spinach, tossed in Shiitake Sesame Vinaigrette. […]
It’s so easy to get caught up in our every day routine and stress brought on by our job, school, family and etc. We often take a lot of things for granted. We should realize that a lot of the simple things in life are the ones that brings us the most joy. Lately when […]

August wrapped up most of our summer activities. We did one last hurrah of back-to-back pool party during this past Labor Day weekend, but after that, we are getting ready to say goodbye to summer. I must say, I forgot how hot it can be during the summer days in our new neighborhood. This is […]
trying out Texture magazine for the last three months. I loved it, when I found the time to use it. Since I barely logged in during the promo period, I will have to cancel the app. Maybe I’ll reactivate in the summer months, when there are more leisurely reading by the pool/beach. finishing our […]
Before I met my husband, I’ve never had fresh and live Christmas tree. I grew up using a fake tree that we re-used every year. I guess it was easier for my dad to rely on a boxed tree that he can assemble easily. Having five girls in the house, he really did not have […]
A few weeks ago, I cleaned out a ton of boxes in the garage. I’m trying to sort everything out, clean house and make a dent in organizing all the stuff I’ve kept all these years. I kept my bib from my first half marathon race in Las Vegas. Ever since I found it, I […]
I made a simple pumpkin oatmeal bake on a Sunday afternoon, with the intentions of having it for breakfast for the next 5 days until Friday. Lets just say that by Wednesday, it was all gone. This happened last year, when I was 4.5 months pregnant. The first trimester was over and I was happy […]
I am trying to clean out our pantry and incorporating at least one pantry item when I’m doing menu planning for the week. I bought these canned pink salmon from Costco because I saw a few salmon cakes recipes (Paleo & Whole 30) that I wanted to try. Well, I tried one recipe, the one […]
I have been watching the Oprah Show for a long time. Whenever I could remember to do it, I would check the ticket reservation page on her website. A few weeks ago, I entered my name during an open window for ticket reservations for the L.A taping of her show after the Oscars. A few […]
Hello friend 🙂 I hope your weekend is going well. With a newborn at home, my days and nights are starting to blur these days. I constantly look at my phone to check what day/date it is. But I do know it’s April, and this month will be a special month for me since I will […]
