Every Day is an Adventure

We should all have a little child or little children in our lives, to remind us to have a sense of wonder and to delight in the simple and mundane :)

Peekaboo!

I'm not in the habit of Selfies, but I don't want my little boy to look back on all the family photos and wonder, "Where are all the photos of me and Mommy?"

Love Gift

Look what the sweet boy made me a while back :)

Cinnamon Buns

I've been baking a lot more and *gasp* making my own pastry dough.

But for these cinnamon buns, I used a can of Pizza Dough.

Hurray for baking hacks

Ooo, and then there was the time I made mini pot pies... :)

Home School

Let's just say I'm doing a bunch of Spring Cleaning and Sorting and Organizing.

However, I don't want to miss a bunch of school either.

So, you just gotta do school where you gotta do school.

Stop to smell the Roses.

When you stop at the Coffee Aisle at HEB for a bit to inhale all the amazing aromas that linger there, you could just find some pretty cool sounding names.

Chinese New Year 2017 Part 2

The second CNY event we went to was the Lantern Festival organized by the Chinese Scholars and Students' Association.

There was quite a healthy number of people there, as usual,

along with the usual suspects, and us. :)

We were fortunate enough to find seats at the same table as Prof. Gao and his delightful family.

The evening actuallly went on pretty well.  We were shown a video clip of how The Lantern Festical was celebrated in China

The food from Little Panda was good, and they even made "Tang Yuan", and a curry dish, but I still wish the organizers had catered from Sunrise.

After dinner, random ticket numbers were called out and OURS got picked!  We had to answer a couple of riddles,

and won ourselves a pretty fan!

There was also time for some craftiness,

before we left the auditorium and started to do a little After Party roaming and exploring :)
