While walking through a local Target doing my “glamorous” mom life thing, I heard a vendor joking with Target workers about eating “death dogs” and I was immediately transported in time to my college days. . . I have lived in several different income brackets from wealthy to poverty levels. I will have to admitContinue reading ““Death Dogs””

Hot Chocolate
Because of a condition, I am unable to consume more caffeine that what is in a candy bar. Caffeine consumption makes my heart feel like it is beating out of rhythm and it feels like what I would imagine a heart attack might feel like – but I have no idea what that would feelContinue reading “Hot Chocolate”
Frittata Muffins!
My husband was eating a meat cheese and egg biscuit nearly every day and it has caught up to him. His last checkup was not great so he wants to try eating lighter. Since I don’t want to make him breakfast every morning I decided to make him some Frittata Muffins so he can microwaveContinue reading “Frittata Muffins!”
My Junk, Your Treasure
Have you ever had a garage/yard sale? In the US there are actually groups of people that find treasure hunting at garage sales a hobby or a passion.

Ganjang Bibim Guksu
It is too hot to cook so I tend to lean toward foods that do not have to cook for very long. Koreans have several kinds of cold noodle dishes. This one is so easy even kids can make it. I remember making it for myself often where there was no one around to cookContinue reading “Ganjang Bibim Guksu”
Our first guest post!
In our randomly continuing series about weddings, my sister has offered to share her wedding story with us. Prologue: First before I start, I am not reminiscing nor do I have any longing for my former marriage. However, I loved most of our wedding celebration and the loved ones who attended. We were living inContinue reading “Our first guest post!”
Speaking of weddings
I went to a wedding Saturday. It was for a girl I’ve known through belly dance, for about 10 years. Some weddings really make you wonder why these people are even getting married, because you know it’s not going to work. This wedding was the opposite, where the couple are such a good match, andContinue reading “Speaking of weddings”
Simpler Living
The pandemic was a huge lesson in sociology among many other things. I learned that I can live without many things and I am happier for it. I was reminded what was more important to me and my family. I was never one to try to squeeze more and more into my days to beContinue reading “Simpler Living”
