  • Gung Ho

    The year is brand new, and so it is quite conceivable that whatever your vows of resolutions and habits, they are all still in good form. I myself am gung ho about cooking better and healthier. This obsession is not new in itself, but the excitement has been renewed on a higher scale due to…

  • Why did the dinosaur cross the road?

    Over New Year’s Eve, I was talking to my parents who were visiting us from Charlotte about my upcoming birthday just a couple of days later.

  • Happy New Year!

    Godspeed to all as we enter 2025 with an open mind and open heart. You know, I am feeling good about this year. I feel relaxed and calm, which is unlike me because I am usually armed with a long list of things I want to do and accomplish. Cheers to taking it easy this…

  • La Notte + Gateau

    My favorite thing to watch when left to my own devices are old movies; specially black and white; preferably foreign. Yesterday, I stumbled upon the 1961 Italian film La Notte. Written and directed by Michelangelo Antonioni. Staring Marcello Mastroianni, Jeanne Moreau, and Monica Vitti. I was watching this film while baking from my favorite dessert…

  • A chance encounter with a lovely book { The Lost Words }

    I ran into this book at my local library. At first it was the size and illustrations that caught my eye. But then I flipped it around and found an even more endearing reason to read it. Heartbreaking – yes? Each of the 10 words listed in the book is accompanied by a very lovely…
