I set out all the things I needed for the race the night before. Fairy tutus. Check. I filled my hydration belt with water. Ipod fully charged. My wake-up call the morning of the race was 4am. We had to be at the starting line and at our corral at 4:30am. I live close […]
Before I start the recap of the race events this past weekend, I just want to say that…I DID IT!! I am proud to say that I am now a two-time half marathon finisher!!! I had a great time running the race. It was even more special because I ran it with friends and […]
I am so excited for tomorrow. It’s race day. I have been looking forward to this weekend since September. This is not just any race weekend, it’s a DISNEY race weekend. It’s double the fun. We are heading to the race expo today at Downtown Disney. We’re picking up all our official race items (i.e. […]

I found a place in our kitchen, a little nook where I can put all the cookbooks that I often use. One of those cookbooks is the Almond Flour cookbook. When I saw it, I was reminded that I haven’t used almond flour in a long time. The cookbook was written by Elana Armsterdam, who […]
Weeknight dinners has to be quick and easy. Because my commute from work gets me home around 7pm, my dinner is either pre-made and portioned on prep Sundays…or some nights, I get to cook a quick and easy dinner. I have been craving Mexican food lately so I wanted to make Mexican Pizza or Enchiladas. […]
I re-organized my closet and put back only items that I’m currently loving. I noticed that the colors that made it back in the closet had similar color scheme. I am loving neutral colors with lots of blue, grey and stripes. A lot of the tops and bottoms all matches with each other. So even […]
This weekend, we are celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary. I still love the lyrics to our first dance, which was “Everything” by Michael Buble. A lot of it still holds true to this day, and no matter how crazy life gets, I am glad I found a partner in my husband who is there to get […]
After Christmas, I purposely did not make any plans so I can have some downtime. A much needed downtime. I’ve spent a few days like no other days during the year. Just relaxing. Relaxing like staying in my pajamas all day, eating my meals in my pajamas all day and watching movies in my pajamas all day. […]

On my days off from work, I play chauffeur to my mom and my aunt. They love to plan the places they would like to visit and tell me their to-do list. They get excited when I’m not working so that they can have their playtime outside of the house. With the rain pouring for […]
I had a lot of dessert sampling during Thanksgiving. There were some impressive spread of chocolate cakes, cookies, pies and etc. All home-made. I didn’t know this until recently, but the fiance’s family (his cousins) includes some very talented bakers. I believe one went to culinary or pastry school. I enjoyed browsing thru a ton […]
