So glad Monday is over! I had a very hard time getting out of bed this morning… I almost wanted to stay in bed and continue to sleep!! However, after a nice warm bath I was more awake. My morning routine is more or less the same day after day: Wake up > bath > [...]

Yesterday’s fruit platter – Thai mangoes, Fuji apples and Korea strawberries. The strawberries weren’t that sweet. I think Korea [...]

I baked these apple muffins yesterday and took some pictures this morning (natural light is the best). These muffins are a winner and I will definitely make them again.

Yesterday we had a relaxing foot reflexology and shoulder massage, then headed to the movie store to get a movie (Paranormal Activity) so that we could watch at night. We also bought some chicken wings & sushi on our way back home. Today is pretty much staying [...]

Unlike last year, this year’s festive season was kept simple. Christmas eve: worked half day, dined at a nearby fast food restaurant and watched “The proposal” on DVD at night — funny movie. We had a good laugh. Christmas day: balinese massage. Boxing day (we don’t celebrate but I mean the day after christmas): family [...]
