I was planning on heading home early tonight to confront the mountain of chores I still have leftover from vacation/holiday madness, but my sisters invited me out to dinner in K-Town, and I couldn’t resist the urge to pretend I’m…
Guest Photographers: Mshel Reyna and Lia Maliwat Breakfast at Shangri-la Boracay (Photo on the left: view from the Shangri-la buffet restaurant) Our second day started out a little slow, since our lovely photographer wasn’t feeling well, and skipped breakfast. We…
Boracay is one of the many islands in the Philippine archipelago, and it has become a regular vacation destination for me. I don’t usually like to going to the same place more than once, but there are so many things…
My hubby and I alternate Thanksgivings and Christmases between his family and my family, and this year we did Thanksgiving with his family. It was one very long and relaxing weekend. I got off work at 1:30pm on Wednesday, did…

I will always have a soft spot for Astoria. This of course, for those who don’t know, is where I rented my very first apartment in NYC. It was a fun period in my life. There’s a lot of…
I’ve complained quite a bit about not being able to travel in this blog, but aside from my walks I do get somewhat mollified by going out to Connecticut (where hubby is originally from), every once in a while. Because of that…
