The heat of summer is officially here. I come home from work and the first thing I do is open all the windows and screen doors. I like to air out the house and make sure the cold air flows in and out. I do this even before I put my purse down. It’s a […]
I have several vegetarian recipes on dinner rotation and few handful go-to recipes for whenever I want to cook Meatless on Mondays. But I have bookmarked so many recipes that I really should start trying making new ones. This new recipe I wanted to try intimidated me at first because I’ve never tasted the “real […]
I was excited to be outdoors again today. It has been a chilly week and I’ve been a hermit. I get cold easily so when Chris said he was feeling cold (he usually runs hot), you can bet that I was freezing. Ok, not really freezing. That’s just the drama queen coming out of me. […]
I found a huge bag of brown rice in our pantry recently. I usually mark large packages of food items (usually items bought from Costco) with the purchase date on the front. It’s for my own curiosity and some sort of tracking on how long it takes us to finish a container. Well, the bag […]
Thank you for your sweet comments on the blog’s new design. I remember when I was little, and I would get excited when I have a fresh new notebook to write on. I would draw colorful and bright flowers on it and would wear out my colored pens. I feel the same way with the new […]

I woke up bright and early today excited to run at the park. The mornings have cooled down a little so it is actually nice to run outside without the scorching heat that I had to battle during the summer months. 4 Mile run = 3 mile jog and 1 mile alternating (1 min walk/1 […]
I created this pancake and topping combination during my run today. During my cool down, my mind started thinking about breakfast. I had a nice and short run this morning, trying to keep my legs fresh for my 10K Turkey Trot tomorrow morning. I have been eating a lot of red food lately and it […]
One of my favorite treats that I made this holiday season was a half cookie and half peppermint bark. I know Christmas is over but I’m not over eating peppermint yet. I’ve made these three times in a span of two weeks. I’m a little obsessed, just a little. I think I will be making […]
Hawke first had a glance at Santa at Disneyland. Santa was approaching Main St. with all his elves and there was a big crowd in front of us that we couldn’t really get close to the parade, but we could still see him approaching our area. Chris lifted Hawke so he can see better. […]
Most of the time, I am the one that cooks our meals. I enjoy looking thru cookbooks, magazines and especially blogs for recipe inspiration. I find it fun to plan ahead our meals for the week and I especially enjoy going grocery shopping. I just love to be around food, period. But the husband also […]

It was a scorcher today and I wished I could have eaten ice cream for all my meals, but alas, I need nutrition so ice cream will have to wait, maybe for dessert later. Lets get straight to it…these are my eats for today. I had a soupy oat bowl today, I was a little […]
I’m always on the lookout for food that are toddler friendly, meaning they are bite size, so my little man’s tiny chubby hands can pick up the food and feed himself. He doesn’t like us to help him with food, my Mr. Little Independent. I also try to convert our adult food into bite size, […]
