1. Here I am again talking about a kitchen item in my favorites’ list, but I beg you, if you don’t own a steaming basket*, get your hands on one. It’s so much easier to cook certain vegetables (like beans, broccoli, etc.) in a steaming basket than in water. 2. I don’t know about your…
It’s been a hot second since my last rambling post, so I thought it was time to link up again with Amanda from Running with Spoons for Thinking out Loud. (Well, to be honest, the link-up hasn’t been posted in a couple of months and I am not sure what’s going on, but I hope…
I don’t know about you, but I love a good stir-fry because you can pretty much adjust the meal completely to your liking. Use the meat you like, use the vegetables you like (or have left over in the fridge). There is not much you can do wrong when making a stir-fry. This is a recipe…
(still) USING | my bullet journal. And I realized that what I love most about bullet journaling is all the space I have to write down things other than weekly appointments or tasks (e.g. lists, brain-storming sessions, etc.) WEARING | my wishbone-necklace again. I had forgotten about it for a while and then I found…
A little while ago, my friend Kate shared a post about the things she does or does not spend (her hard-earned) money on and I am jumping on the bandwagon, because if I have learned one thing over the years while budgeting, it is that people just prioritize their spending in different ways.

I decided it was time to participate in the Tuesdays on the Run linkup again hosted by Marcia, Patty and Erika. The topic for today’s post was intriguing to me. How has running changed me? The short answer: in so many ways. The long answer: I am still a fairly new runner, if you count…
Hey, remember the road trip that I went on with my cousin B and his girlfriend in September when we visited all the National Parks? I am still catching up on the recaps! Here are parts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. After the amazing tour through Lower Antelope Canyon and a quick stop at Horseshoe Bend, we got back…
As I mentioned, my co-worker brought in a ton of zucchinis from her garden and I went home with three huge zucchinis last week. We roasted two as a side dish for dinner, but I still had one two-pound zucchini left over when the weekend came around and what better way to make use of…
A week ago, I ran the (1st) SF half marathon again. This race has become one of my favorite races (albeit an expensive one) because it combines a great race with a fun weekend in San Francisco. I was lucky that I signed up last year at the bargain price of $85 dollars. This was cheap….
