Endearment!!

Whenever I'd like to thank my family for their support especially hubby's taking care of kids while I had my best time with girls night out, a nice home-cooking for my family is always ensued!!

Here are examples of a quick supper which allows you endear yourself to your family! They are going to love both you and the food!

We love the creamy taste of white sauce but I always order/buy tomato cream sauce/ sun-dried tomato cream sauce for a little healthier twist! 

When saute shrimps, I also use herb infused dipping oil + extra virgin olive oil for more flavor!....try it and you'll love how much aroma it can add into your dishes!!

I call this " Fussili Melody" as Niel loves fussili pasta while Heidi and Ilona love Ravioli and add mushroom, Spinach, shrimps, then there you have a healthy and tasty hearty meal!!
Two dishes in one...easy for mom to do! ^^

This is a quick supper for hubby as he lurrrrrrrrrrves hash brown. 
A home-grilled chicken satay (store bought satay sauce for marinate and dipping) and some mini hot dogs keep his protein intake in-check!

As for me, I don't need much food for dinner but I eat 6 meals throughout the day and munch almonds all day long to keep my protein intake in-check. Then, here comes my soul food....fashion meg. lol.

 So, what I learned today is that you need to "belt" your pleat skirt to add a cool definition, buy as many sequin pieces as possible, and stock up "PINK"!!!! ^^

I was so inspired again by Ann's feather or petal-like cardigan the other night she wore to our girl's night out. So I dug out my vintage find last year....this loop wool cardigan. ....Oh, yes, if you are wondering, I am wearing fall look already. lololol...... nay, jk!

"Pink" can be girly and powerful if you pair it right!!!

The Best Mother's Day Ever...a trip to Sterling Vineyard, Napa!!

An unforgettable day to tote my {new baby} around at Sterling Vineyard on Mother's Day!! 

NOTE: new baby is my Mother's Day gift of Hermes Rubis Lindy 30!! {=^.^=} {I am super ecstatic....}

{Bought a case of 2009 Bianca sweet white wine and gifted a dessert wine from GRGICH HILLS by generous Eric (Irene's hubby) for my Mother's day gift home...how sweet, Eric! }

I am going through a RED craze since last year!! First, I bought 10A Chanel Rouge reissue 226 with distressed silver HW, then this year 11P Rouge Fonce reissue 226 with gold HW and now Hermes Rubis Lindy!! {11P Rouge Fonce reissue is going to be my Mom's after this summer I travel back...unless she doesn't want it. ... and I think I am growing OLDER for liking RED so much... grr } 



The blue wide safety pin bracelet is a gift from my designer friend, Elfi Altendorfer. 
 {I also love the green safety pin with yellow spacer on her web site..go check it out!} 



I adore the fuchsia undertone in Hermes RUBIS color. 



We are still HOT....mamas... :P

A moment with friends and their family, Priceless!!!



I drove hubby's BMW 535 manual shift home today! {I might as well change my car to manual ..Wait, what if I need to drive my gals to SF city ... geez, my legs and arms will be sore. :P}



Yes, I think Lindy 30 is a perfect little bag even for my height..... 


Have fun with your brightest little summer bag!
