We had a wonderful 3-day holiday weekend. Here are 10 things I want to remember during our 4th of July weekend. #1 – Hubby and I both had Friday off for the holiday. Since we just got back from our vacation last Monday, we only had to work 3 days during the week. Woohoo! #2 […]
We celebrated Jill’s bridal shower last week at The Grand Del Mar in San Diego. The bridal shower was a day filled with friends catching up with each other, celebration of friendships, toast to the bride-to-be, very creative and personalized decorations, beautiful location and just an all around awesome party. Oh, there was a […]
Weekend Things {1} How’s the new year treating you so far? My weekend was relaxing. I actually took it easy because I had a strained muscle on my stomach last week. – Cher and I watched the movie “This is 40”. I was entertained and the movie had some funny moments, but it just surprised […]

Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld (4/5 stars) This is a re-telling of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and has been updated for the modern times, including a reality TV show mixed in. I think I would have still enjoyed the story even if it wasn’t an adaptation. This classic gets adapted often, but this is the […]
thinking January was a loooong month. I’m ready for February and all the hearts and chocolates baking banana chocolate bread. Rainy days are our baking days, and we’ve had many rainy days in the past week going to the Zoo. It was cold and wet and we jumped thru a lot of muddy […]
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 […]
I had the opportunity to try out Winder Farms food delivery service a few weeks ago, and it couldn’t have come at a better time, as I was just returning from traveling and didn’t have time to do our weekly grocery shopping. I set-up my delivery date and their farm fresh products were delivered on […]
I didn’t have a good day yesterday. It started out really well, I woke up when it was cold and dark at 6am. I was productive and studied. Then as the hours progress, my mood just went south and I was cranky. It was a mix of a lot of things. The material I was […]
Another fun weekend spent on the hiking trails. Today, we had a bigger group that joined us on our hike. It was a lot of fun. Working those leg muscles to get on top of the hills. Thanks to my friend Irene and Amy for the pictures. I love doing fitness activities with a group […]
I had a lovely run at the park this morning. I am trying to run consistently so I can get back my running mojo. I seem to lose running steam whenever I don’t do it consistently. I have been spending time at the gym or hiking this past summer and Fall season seems to be […]
I really want to be consistent with writing on the blog, my way of documenting our summer. Before I would get myself overwhelmed with trying to post all the stuff we were doing because I didn’t have the time to sit down and draft a long post, I still don’t have the time most days, […]
