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. […]

I am San Francisco bound this morning on my way to the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival. I’m at the airport waiting for my flight to San Francisco. My flight is delayed so might as well take advantage of the free internet 🙂 It’s another beautiful day in SoCal, sad to leave the sunshine but I’m prepared […]
It was a busy and fun filled weekend. Here are some snapshots of my weekend thru my phone. Pumpkin Pancakes every morning. Road trip down south. Comfy in my Tom’s shoes. So comfortable. Chris’s favorite spot for fries. Veggie Burgers, garlic fries {bottomless} and salads for me. We hung out in Long Beach. Spent the […]
When I think of pasta, I immediately think of Italian style dish and tomato sauce. But as I find new recipes and read new cookbooks, I find that pasta can be prepared in so many ways. This unique recipe from The Kind Diet cookbook has pasta but also includes a lot of cabbage, onions and celery. […]
I loved documenting my life (hello blog!) and what prevents me from doing it more often is the time it takes to do it. I’m always finding ways to do a shortcut, but I want to do shortcuts only if I also love the end results. This post was inspired by a post I saw […]
Instead of making New Year’s resolutions, I thought it would be a better idea to choose a word for 2014. My one word for 2014 is CHOOSE. I decided on this word because I feel that there are a lot of things that I can’t control BUT I can choose on how I react to […]
going to Home Depot’s workshop for kids. My 3 year old is a little too young for the workshop, so I helped him build the wooden crate and he did all the painting. He was very proud to receive his own apron and pin. spending time with my girlfriends after work Friday for […]
Last fall I went on a travel-spree with friends, I guess you can say, I had wanderlust. I had some vacation days, great deals on hotels and all I needed was to pick a place and go. I picked Seattle. I like organizing group trips, creating itineraries and researching places to visit and food to […]
I’m posting these mini sugar cookie cups to revive an old recipe, just in time for Labor Day this weekend. I topped these with fresh mango that were shaped into flower petals. These were refreshing and light as dessert. You can see this post for all the different ways I’ve served these cookie cups. […]
