New chapter in my car dependent life

January 22nd, 2011 4 Comments

Say hello to Robin (Hood), my 2011 Hyundai Sonata. My first new car since 1996. My first car ever was a 1995 Acura Integra coupe. Dark green. Leather interior. 6 CD changer. All decked out.  My brother Onk who was living in Oklahoma at the time bought it for me per my dad’s order and had it shipped over to me, obviously ignoring my plea to buy something sensible since I was living in the dorm at USC at the

Woodstock for your brain

April 18th, 2010 1 Comment

Technology. Entertainment. Design.  = TED. Ideas worth spreading = Spirit of TED. TED conference is where the brightest minds came together to share their ideas.  I’ve heard of the event last year for the first time, and have been wanting to attend ever since. And I finally got to do it this past week at TEDxUSC, an independently organized event hosted by USC. In a small world, Amy G told me about her friend who were going to TED who

You’ve gotta have friends

April 5th, 2010 1 Comment

This Easter weekend brought out friends old and new. Saturday I spent the morning with my hubby cruising down to San Pedro for a feast that is breakfast at Gaffey Street Diner.  The rest of the day I spent baking, mostly. That night, the hubby set me loose to party with my Twitter crew. We threw an early birthday party for @always_blond at @fstop23′s place.  The ever gracious host didn’t call off the party when he heard that his daughter-in-law

Equal Opportunity Offender

I’m one of those fortunate enough to have and hang out with diverse groups of friends, both in real life and out here in the blogosphere and twitterverse.  All of them different shapes and sizes in colors of the rainbow with even larger variety of interests and points of view.  All have great sense of humor and never take anything too seriously. But those we pull no punches on the most are Brandon’s circle of friends.  The boys have known

Scoped, Spotted, and Splattered

August 6th, 2009 Comments Off

So you’ve wondered where I”ve been? Around, actually. Quite a little bit. I suffered a bit of an eating injury on Sunday. Yes, you read that correctly. An. Eating. Injury. Tuesday, I spent the afternoon at the Walt Disney Concert Hall and had great bonding moments with my D40. Today, my little humble food blog, HmmFoodGood, got noticed by some OC folks and nominated for “You’ve Just Been Spotted” award for food/cooking blog at Just-Spotted.com. Hop on over to either

More than meet the eyes

The conversation when I ordered the cake for Brandon’s birthday party on Saturday went a little bit like this. Me: Hi, I’d like to order a cake for 15 people, please. Great Dane Baking Company: That’ll be a nine-inch cake.  Now what would you like on it? Me: Transformers. GD: Which one? Me: Optimus Prime. GD: The red and blue one? Me: Yep. GD: Okay, what’s the name [to go on the cake]? Me: Brandon. GD: How old is he?

Women Rule

June 11th, 2009 2 Comments

Why would women want to be like men? I mean, yes, we deserve to have the same pay for our skills and all of that. But there are some who try to prove that us women can be just like the men. But we are not. And why should we be like them? I believe that women shouldn’t try to be like men  because, well, crap, we are not them.  There’s not good reason why I would want to be

Phototastic Friday: Irena & Danny

Last weekend in Florida was amazing. The weather was just like Thailand which I totally adore.  A quick change from the dry California heat, I tell ya. We didn’t have a chance to adjust to the time change so we woke up too late each day to try to do anything.  It’s pretty much Coconut Grove and the wedding.  That was it.  No South Beach here. We ate at Green Street Cafe twice. And I would seriously eat there for

Oh Happy Day

May 14th, 2009 Comments Off

Today wasn’t a happy one for me personally. First up, I had to get a couple of separators back in my teeth as they came right off on the first day of having them. My teeth have been sore all week so at this point, whatever. Then off to get my vision field test. I didn’t remember the last time my eyes were dilated, so I told my boss I’d come in after that was done. Yeah right! I had
