Lessons From a Children's Book

Sugar Cookies by Amy Krouse Rosenthal is a great book that teaches kids the different values in life.  I love it also because it uses baking as a medium to impart lessons.  It is such a heart-warming book.  My favorite part of the book is...

Isn't it the sweetest?:-)

Wedding Cord

I have always wanted a simple and intimate wedding ceremony.  That wish came true late last year when I finally married my long-time boyfriend. We kept it small and personal.  I also added a lot of personal touch to our wedding details. I made my own garter, our wedding cord, the ceremony programs, all the details on our wish tree table and chocolate buffet table.

Out of all my DIY projects, my favorite is the wedding cord.  I've always been into making bead accessories so I was very excited to make the cord.  In total, it took me almost a day to finish it. 

There are two rosaries joined into one.  I used white and blue beads for the rosaries which are also our wedding colors.  We were lucky to have found a blue cross from the bead store near our place.  I am so proud of this. 

Best of all, my husband loved it!
 

Man vs Food

For his birthday, we decided to try Hash House A Go Go which was featured on Food Network's Man vs Food. Hash House is known for good food and ginormous big servings.  We didn't order the dish that was featured on the show because we knew that we wouldn't be able to finish it. Just the same, we gave up on ours.

Warm Spinach Salad

Sage Fried Chicken Linguine

One pound burger with bacon, avocado, and cheddar cheese

Each serving is good for two, that we now know.  It's a bit pricey but you definitely get your money's worth. We are already planning on going back there. My eyes are set on their pancake that seems like three times the size of my head. In the meantime, I will be working on expanding my stomach.

I Miss You

Two years and counting. I sahll see you again soon.

Sugar Rush

I can't get enough of this...

And this...

My sugar level has been going bonkers again.

The Best-Ever Book of Bread

This should keep me busy for the next few months...

I love how this book talks about the history, origin and different kinds of bread.  I can't wait to try all the recipes!

I just bought it yesterday and I already got two requests: prosciutto bread from the hubby, and cinnamon rolls from a friend.

I'm so excited it's not even funny. I think I was a baker in previous life.
