I started this blog almost two years ago as a not only a way to archive my family’s recipes, but to also explore eating health benefits of Asian cuisine and staying fit and healthy.

I don’t make enough trips to Virginia. I’m not sure if it’s because of the 6.5 hour car drive or the lack of things to do in the small town, but I only make the trip up north once a year – twice if I’m lucky. I’m never in town long enough to really slow [...]

Sometimes all you need for a good time with the family is a box of wine. Although I usually would pride myself in finding a great wine and some local cheese and organic crackers to go with, sometimes a box of wine hits the spot. It’s big, it’s cheap… and it reminds us of our [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had a Friendsgiving, followed by a Thanksgiving dinner at our house, some Black Friday shopping and then another dinner at the in-laws’ house. I’m finally starting to recuperate and catch up on work from the busyness of the long weekend, and am already looking forward to the [...]

Things have been busy over here in my neck of the woods lately, jam packed with both fun and work and everything in between. This past weekend started with an outing to the Starlight flea market, which was followed an all day cook and photo session with a friend. How have I not known about [...]

This is about the time of year when I start realizing that the year is almost over, and I realize that I haven’t reached any of the goals that I had set for myself way back in January. But, this year it’s okay because lots of things have changed for me in the past 10 [...]

When I finally got that (Facebook) invitation to my 10 year high school reunion (about a month before the event, a month!), all of those stereotypical thoughts rushed into my mind: “Are we really that old?” “Ugh. I’m not ready for this yet.” “What have I done with my life (so far)?” “Great. This is [...]

I love the ocean. Now, don’t get me wrong I do enjoy being in the mountains, but I just don’t get that simultaneous feeling of both serenity and exhilaration when I am in the mountains. We have taken two trips out West this year and I was afraid that I wouldn’t get to see my [...]
