Beauty of Maine

I should have wrote about this much sooner, but I simply don’t have enough time. But then again, how soon could that have been? I only started blogging a week ago. Anyway, we flew to Maine last month for a week. We chose Maine as our first destination this year because we both love to […]

The T-shirt

We went to the supermarket today, and Frank wore this shirt that was given to him by my brother-in-law(my sister’s husband). It reminds me of the days during the first year of our marriage, when we fought because of his obsession with his “teams” while playing. Not one game on TV would he miss , […]

Gloomy Saturday

This morning we woke up to a cloudy sky. Thank God, the sunshine came mid morning and it turned out to be another summery day- the temperature soaring to the 90’s. The humidity was high too. On a day like today, I’m thankful we live near the ocean, 15 minutes walk to the boardwalk. We […]

Summer heat

New York is really heating up. On a day like today, you must really make sure you are well hydrated and smell good. Why do I say smell good? It’s because a lot of people have offensive smell, and they probably aren’t aware. Good hygiene is very important but some people just don’t care. I […]

It delivers its purpose and doesn’t disintegrate quick. Before first use it looks like this.When wet, it gets to […]

Yum!

Inspired as I was with the result of my ultrasound yesterday, I whipped out a quick but delish(according to Frank) meal for dinner last night. I sauteed shrimp with hoisin sauce, tons of garlic and cilantro. Accompanied with blanched green beans and dressed with Italian red wine vinegar,olive oil, mustard, salt and pepper. I tell […]

Cushy and comfy Arizona

Yesterday, I had a doctor’s appointment. Usually when I visit this doctor, I take the subway reason being, I don’t want to be bothered by parking. I took the F and switched to the N train. This involves a lot of climbing on the subway staircase to get to the platform and of course walking […]

How do I encourage Frank to go to the mall?

He doesn’t know…. Finally, I found the trick. I really believe that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Know what it is? Ruby Tuesday!!!! Yes, it’s the restaurant. And no, it’s not located inside a mall, but it’s close to the mall. And we have to drive about 30 miles and […]
