I have so many recipes bookmarked for this holiday season (mostly cookies and desserts) that I don’t think I’ll have time to bake and cook them all. I guess it’s ok to make holiday cookies in the Spring right? December is full of holiday parties and I am surrounded with indulgent desserts, delicious party food, […]
We’ve had beautiful weather around here. I am enjoying it while it lasts. Heard there’s a storm coming soon. Admiring the last of the ripe oranges. They are sour though 😦 And enjoying the last of the beautiful plumerias. It might be the last bloom until next season. My mother-in-law gave us a few plumeria […]
I’ve been craving chocolate lately. I’m not craving sweets, but I’m craving chocolate. I added a heaping tablespoon of dark chocolate powder in my oatmeal bowl and it turned into this black bowl of oats. Halloween color bowl? I added shredded coconut, granola and nuts to the bowl and had myself a healthier version of […]

To continue my wedding recap, here is What-I-Ate wedding day edition. I got a lot of advice from people on what to eat on my wedding day. I […]
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 […]

Hello 2017! I’m excited for what this year is in store for us. The holidays were wonderful and filled with lots of family time. We will be keeping our Christmas decor up until the last day when the Christmas tree has to be picked-up by the trash company. Putting the decorations away always makes me […]
going back to the OC Fair on its last day and having a blast visiting the animals and riding our favorite rides. We all shared deep fried Oreos, Krispy Kreme donut burgers, frozen banana dipped in chocolate and fresh fruits with tajin dancing at Zumba class. I made it 2 weeks in a row […]
For someone who loves to bake, it’s amazing that I haven’t made a lot of different kind of bake goods. My comfort zone in my kitchen and for using my oven is usually cookies, snack bars, quick breads and muffins. I want to venture out of my comfort zone. I want to try something new. […]

This post is a long time coming (literally almost a year old). I had good intentions in showing all the DIY projects I did for our wedding, but my schedule got busy and life moved on. The last few months, I received a few requests for the key holder templates that I posted here. It made […]
stocking up the freezer with healthy treats for me and for H’s school snack. We also like to bring healthy (decadent treats) for when we visit my brothers on weekend afternoons. watching our first 4D movie as a family. It was H’s first time watching movie at a theatre, he lasted about 20 […]
Well hello again, it has been awhile. I have been busy the last several days spending time with family and friends, and taking care of family matters. But the calm is here and my schedule has finally slowed down. I think this is longest time I’ve disconnected from my computer, which at times can be […]
As my friends and I have gotten older and some of us have started a family, our birthday celebrations have moved towards having day events such as hikes and brunches, instead of the late night partying events during our twenties. I actually really love this since I am a morning person, and I love spending […]
