Thoughts, inspiration, balance… and randomness
In my former blogging-life, I had a dating blog about all my dating adventures in L.A.

I understand that, and embrace it in those areas of my life that require it. But in my extracurricular world... I have found that spontaneity yields the most interesting stories, best … Continue reading Spontaneity

One of the days in Ko Samui, we took a three-hour cooking class and learned four native Thai dishes from scratch. I will save your eyeballs (and your appetites) and not post them all at once, but sprinkle them throughout my posts the next few weeks. Today's recipe is for Phad Thai Koong Sod, or … Continue reading iPhad
The first time I read The Secret Garden by Francis Hodgson Burnett, I was in elementary school. I was a voracious reader, mainly sticking to the likes of The Babysitter's Club or Sweet Valley High (Sweet Valley Twins I also read, but they were a bit thin).
