I’m really trying to be grateful this Thankful Thursday as I stress at the wintry weather we are having.  The temps do NOT make me happy and neither do the icy forecasts. 1.  Not much has happened since my last Thankful Thursday post.  I have only made it to half way being ready for Christmas.  […]

Good morning!  It’s Thankful Thursday again already.  And we still have the Indian Summer days.  I can never have too much of the temperatures being in the 70s. #itisperfect 1.  I finished my part-time job in two days this month.  Woohoo!   The second day went pretty smoothly and it’s a good thing.  My mentor was […]

Today is my first Thankful Thursday post of a new month.  I can’t believe we’ll be into the fall season in a few weeks 🙁  I know some people welcome the fall colors and the cooler temps, but I don’t.  I appreciate fall but to me it just means winter is coming.  And ya’ll know […]

My Thankful Thursday post is not weekly once more… one last time hopefully.  I’m sure I will get back on track soon…just not today.  I’m not having many highlights so this isn’t hurting matters too much lol It’s taken a little bit of an adjustment, but we are making a new routine on work days.  […]

I don’t have a heck of a lot of highlights this Thankful Thursday.  It’s been quite a ho hum week actually.  I’ve just been working on getting my taxes done and decluttering and packing where I can here and there. 1.  Altho I’m not quite done with the task of my taxes, we hadn’t been […]

Hello Thankful Thursday post readers 🙂 It’s a beautiful sunny spring day…the temps are still a bit cool but I hear it’ll be in the 60s next week.  Woohoo!  It’s been a busy week so far…so much I’ve had to catch up on and so much still to catch up on. 1.  I’m feeling pretty […]

I just ate my third sweet, juicy mango this week.  This sets the stage for a wonderful Thankful Thursday post this day.  #gratefulforlifeandhealth The sun is shining and being alive feels so wonderful – even if I have to work tomorrow and Monday – this long Fourth of July holiday weekend  🙂 1.  I had […]

Here’s another food post for Asian cuisine lovers like moi involving my favorite – noodles 😀  I’ve always made Pad Thai from the box – where you get the rice noodles, the liquid sauce and then you add your meat, vegetables and nuts.  I decided to go one step further and make it from scratch […]

  The other day a Twitter friend said he was having this healthy dish for dinner.  He called it Broccoli & Shiitake Stir Fry with Black Bean Sauce.  As much as stir fry is one of my (many) favorite dishes, I thought it sounded great and figured I could throw those 3 ingredients together, add […]

How often do we read suggestions to eat lean meat?  Pretty often I’d say. One of the leanest, therefore healthiest meat I know of that I am fortunate enough to be able to incorporate into our healthy lifestyle is rabbit.  No, not the wild stuff you see in cowboy movies or cartoons lol but I’m […]

I think Asian food equals stir fry.  I am Asian.  I love Asian food.  One of the easiest dishes to make is stir fry.  It has protein, carbs and oils in it.  Perfect simple healthy dish.  I am not one to use measuring devices when it comes to cooking meals.  Yes, if I’m making something […]
