The last few weeks haven't given me much to blog about with regards to what my blog really centers around - travel, food, etc. So, I thought I'd just put my internal conversations down and my thoughts often come off a bit bullet point-ish. Just a warning to those that actually read my stuff, things … Continue reading Internal Bullet Points
My Friend Mary
When I graduated high school my parents gave me a choice to either stay living at home and go to college or go work in my Dad's office and move into my own place. For me, the decision was easy. I was never an academic so college was not something I was looking forward to. … Continue reading My Friend Mary
Diana’s Fit Club Diary – Part 2 Entry 2
I know I have slacked off on this blog series and honestly the working out slacked off as well. We (the husband and I) were doing well until our trip to Hawaii at the beginning of the month. We even took our workout clothes and shoes thinking we'd get at least every other day in … Continue reading Diana’s Fit Club Diary – Part 2 Entry 2
This Is Paradise?
Recently, I have been hearing such amazing things about a certain place we are likely going to be moving to next. Raves about it being absolute paradise which got me thinking...what is paradise? It's rather subjective isn't it? Paradise to me is often not paradise to someone else. Just as "must see" things to one … Continue reading This Is Paradise?

Finally Fuji-San
This was not how I intended to meet Mt. Fuji. Two and a half years ago I had planned to hike to the summit of this iconic and beautiful World Heritage site at some point during our 3 years here. Last year I planned to hike it with my husband and his daughter, I was simply … Continue reading Finally Fuji-San
Autumn Plans in the Making
My first job was at Karmelkorn, you know, the flavored popcorn place in the mall food court? I was 15 and the owner was the spouse of someone my Dad worked with. It was a great job, I went after school and some weekends and was earning my own money. My parents co-signed for a … Continue reading Autumn Plans in the Making

Memories and Cravings
So recently I've been thinking about, remembering and craving my mother's ... (pause for effect) Peach Cobbler! Like this but probably better because...well ... she made it! This was not just your every day cobbler. It was EPIC! Big pan, Big slices of peaches and BIG yummy baked dough. It was often a Sunday morning … Continue reading Memories and Cravings
