Edamame Fix!
I have a new food passion – Edamame! For someone who loves Japanese food, I didn’t even know they existed until recently, when I tried some at my cousin’s house.
It was love at first taste. (more…)Continue Reading: Edamame Fix!

How many times have you heard it? Or, for that matter, how many times have you said it? “I’m so busy that I can hardly find time in the day to do anything I really want to do.”
Well, I’m guilty – I say that all the time. “I’m so busy…I’m so busy…I’m so busy….” For goodness sake, it’s turning into my mantra! (more…)Continue Reading: Mumsie Day
Balancing Act
How funny that lately my flow of thought continues to be about balance.
This whole month of July has just swept by, filled with the illusions of life that surrounded every situation and moment. The illusions have flowed like dreams, from one scenario to another. Like a river as the water trips and falls over stones and boulders, never knowing where it is going to end up. That was my month...Continue Reading: Balancing Act
Awesome New Camera!
My husband surprised me the other day by buying me a brand new digital camera for our anniversary. I’d been bleating at him for ages about getting a “proper” camera rather than a “point-and-shoot” as I’ve always had an interest in photography but find the basic digital ones limited n what they can do. (more…)Continue Reading: Awesome New Camera!
Manners – or Lack Thereof
A few weeks ago, I read that Elizabeth Post, aka the current “Miss Manners,” had passed away at the age of 89. Elizabeth was the granddaughter-in-law of Emily Post, the original “Miss Manners,” whose book “Etiquette” was originally published in 1922 and is currently in its 17th edition.

Not A Patient Patient!
Okay, it’s official – I’m a lousy patient. Even though I was feeling so ill a couple of weeks ago that I could barely make it out of bed, I still managed to drive my poor hubby up the wall and round the bend.
First, my pillows were too hard…then too soft… Then I wasn’t comfortable because my sheets were all crumpled (the fact that I had crumpled them...Continue Reading: Not A Patient Patient!
Ocean Breezin’
Well a good beginning of getting R & R.
Why does it always seem so difficult to unwind? It must be from years of being on the go.
You would think that I could just flop down on the bed and sleep for days. Well that’s sometimes what I wish I could to do to recover from the flurry of my business and life. But no, it’s truly a very...Continue Reading: Ocean Breezin’
Time Flies When You’re Having Fun
Well, that was fast! 2009 is already coming to an end and we’re about to usher in another new year.
So I guess it’s time to reflect on everything that has happened this year - good and bad. Okay, maybe I’ll just gloss over the bad bits and focus on the good ones. (more…)Continue Reading: Time Flies When You’re Having Fun
“Enough is Enough” Says My Body
These past months have been so hectic - presenting our “Gift of Yoga” promotion, interacting with our community, working on clients’ projects, keeping a household, and bringing up a two-and-a-half-year old.
It’s been non-stop. I was totally spent. I realized this when I couldn’t even remember what I had done a few hours before, or what I needed to do next. My task list didn’t even help. I just stopped being able to...Continue Reading: “Enough is Enough” Says My Body
Yoga, Relatively Speaking!
Recently, my husband and I got together with three of my many cousins and their husbands. We don’t live in the same country so we don’t get together as often as we’d like to.
My cousins and I grew up together and spent most of our youth in each other’s company, so there’s a deep connection that many outsiders don’t understand. You know the old saying “you can’t choose your relatives but you...Continue Reading: Yoga, Relatively Speaking!
