Playing Catch-Up.


1| Shuhan & Max cooked us this amazing feast on Friday night!
  • Sweet-and-sour mock ribs(from Shanghai)
  • Kung Pao Chincken (from Sichuan)
  • Lion head! (yes, Lion head, actually , just large meatball.)
  • Scrambled egg with tomato(traditional Chinese comfort food).

2| After dinner, we went to Gasworks park with Shuhan and Max, we walked around the park at sunset, giving me yet another splash of summer in Seattle, and why I love this place so much! There were a ton of people there though!

3| I got quite a bit of studying done this weekend, and I feel pretty good about it.

4| I've been having some crazy fatigue and headaches lately, but I've amped up my food intake with some more protein, resting when I need to rest, and trying to drink lots of water!

5| Summer is in full swing here - I know it's only June 1st, but the sun has been shining and we've been doing lots of yard work!

6| Aquaman, Eric and I went and walked around Marvista yesterday and we did 2 miles. Aquaman was totally pooped out and was like a little rag doll afterwards!

7| We went looking for rummage sales yesterday and came up dry.

8| I've been keeping my house nice and clean since we've moved in, and I couldn't be more thrilled. It's not AS much work as I thought it was going to be if you just stay on top of it!

9| Weekends have been going nice and slow lately, and I'm thrilled about that too - I've been careful to not overbook ourselves!

10| Bring it on 1st week of June... Bring it on!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
