Ever since I asked you all for Q&A ideas, my inbox has been flooded with your questions.   Wow.  I am loving answering them, and I’m hardly even half way through! For now, here is my answer to the easiest (and most popular) question of all (you guys are such romantics!). The story of how/where me and my beau met. Quite simply, Kyle and I met at our on-campus job at UCLA.  Not that I’m advocating inter-personnel relations, but dipping my pen in the company ink proved to be quite effective in my case 😉 He… Read more >

So I’ve been thinking. At first I was going to maybe update my “about me” section, but it’s hard to write about yourself out of the blue without any prompts.  So then I figured why not just ask you guys what you want to know.  I’m fairly open about my life on my blog, but who doesn’t like a good Q&A sesh, right?  Feel free to hit me up with questions and I’ll compose a post with the answers in a few days when I get back to normal after my West Coast holiday.  It’ll… Read more >

Ok, since a bunch of you have been asking how I get my java all foamy, I decided it was about time for a tutorial.  As you can see, it’s a pretty integral part of my AM coffee routine.  Being a coffee connoisseur caffeine dependent, I am willing to spend nearly any price to get my fix the EXACT way I like it.  The good news: this tool doesn’t cost anywhere near as much as some fancy shmancy espresso machine. Introducing the Caffé Froth by BonJour… It’s such a simple tool to use, and yet,… Read more >

Tuesday marked my return to work.  I didn’t miss it, but I like my job, so I wasn’t too bummed about getting back into it. However, by 8 am, I was ready to take that all back.  HA! My pre-packed work eats included: protein pretz, dried mango, dried papaya, salad, tea, apple, Mocha-walla Odwalla bar, Spiced Pumpkin Pie Clif bar, and dark chocolate covered cocoa roasted almonds. This salad wasn’t one of my finest creations considering all the prep I had done the day before.  The chickpeas and BN squash were great, but I forgot… Read more >
