I’ve been thinking about this lately… Do I love traveling so I can take fun pictures? a LOT of pictures? Do I love traveling so I can try different food? Do I love traveling to learn more about myself and at the same time learn about new cultures? Yes, yes, yes to all of the […]
Today is the last full day remaining in our travels. Chris and I had the greatest time traveling all over the Philippines in the last 2.5 weeks. We tried exotic foods and other foods we don’t normally eat at home. I did activities outside my comfort zone and did it all without regrets. It was […]

I used to be indecisive, until I had baby. When you are a new mom, there is no time for being indecisive, you just do it and hope it will be good enough. It is good enough, because it was your best at the moment. So pre-baby, I used to take weeks to decide […]
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 […]

POM Wonderful sent me a box of pomegranates. It’s pomegranate season and I have been enjoying making different recipes that incorporate pomegranates. The holiday season is here and I welcomed it with open arms with this festive loaf. This bread is definitely different with nutty taste of pistachios, the unique tartness of the pomegranate and […]
I don’t know exactly when something becomes a tradition, but we have been making pizzas in our house quite often recently and it has become our Friday night tradition.
