The Franciscan retreat

By | August 8, 2011

Went to the above place for a spiritual retreat during the weekend.  It’s all scripture base and it was very beautiful.  This place sits on a 60-acre land.  Very peaceful place for meditation and reflection.  It is run by the Franciscans. Can’t say much about the retreat but just wanted to put up some pictures, [...]

Berry picking

By | July 18, 2011

My friend, S, and I went to Northfield for picking strawberries. The weather was crazily hot and humid. It rained the whole day before and the morning before we went. The skeeters were having a good feast. When we got there, the owner of the farm told us the strawberry fields are soaking with rain [...]

What’s for dinner tonight?

By | October 15, 2010

That’s the dreadful question we would asked each other every other weekend (that’s when DB does not work). I will cook on Sunday for the week which will usually last till Thursday. And since Friday is toward the weekend, I will cook dinner on that Friday DB is working. That fella does not come home [...]

The 3-day weekend

By | September 7, 2010

The 3-day Labor Day weekend went by so fast.  I guess as usual, weekends goes by quicker than weekdays, for me at least.  We didn’t go anywhere except to run errands and went for a movie, Avatar at the neighborhood theater.  The movie is in 3D and the ticket was so much cheaper than at [...]

Weekend came and gone

By | August 23, 2010

I was looking toward the weekend.  It came and left too darn quickly.  I am thinking of working 4-10 hours which will leave me 3 days off during the weekend.  It could be a Monday or Friday.  This weekend we were cleaning and did some unpacking.  DB was tinkering around with his rust bucket truck.  I [...]

Randomness

By | August 4, 2010

It has been ages since I really posted  something non paid!  Sad isn’t it?  The only thing that is really worth posting is what I baked during the weekends.  Pretty much every weekend the oven is on.  Last weekend I must have been super hardworking, full of energy I guess.  I baked a banana bread [...]

Weekend happening

By | June 14, 2010

The boys, Cooper and Chase and I were out for our morning walk on Saturday. All was good till we made the turn on the road heading towards our house. The boys started running fast towards some thing. I was sort of day dreaming and when they both started scrambling towards the shrubs it took [...]

The Pioneer Woman book signing at the Mall of America (MOA), Nordstrom Court. I wanted to get to MOA by 11:30 but I thought the crowd won’t be that bad. So I slept in.  I thought I can go an hour later since PW signing starts at 1. Wow, holy molly, when I got there [...]

The weekend

By | April 11, 2009

The weekend is here already.  Good Friday yesterday but our market group had no day off.  Oh well, at least it was an easy day, no crazy demands from the bosses. Went to church for the Passion of the Lord service.  It was moving and finally getting meeting people I had contacted from the church.  [...]

A typical Sunday for me now

By | March 22, 2009

Sunday is now a much more relaxing day for me.  I get all the cleaning and errands done on the week day and Saturdays.  Yeah, it sure beats all the rushing I have to do on Sundays.  I’m not working part time in the restaurant anymore, so I definitely get my stuff done on Saturdays. [...]

A day at the restaurant

By | January 12, 2009

Saturday I was at Satay2Go.  It was quiet day.  Not too busy.  Folks are really tightening their belts.  Yeah, business has gone down a little.  But I’m still there every Saturday. Of course with the a slow going day, David and I (David is the owner’s kid) had a go with our “kungfu” fighting.  This [...]
