This summer has been the summer of reading. One of my current summer reads is The Help. Yes, the book that every book club lady has been talking about forever. Well, I read up to page around 300 and had to take a break. I just couldn't bear to read on. Nothing too terrible had happened to the main characters just yet. A few broken hearts and embarrassing moments here and there. The suspense is totally building. I couldn't bear to hear about awful things happening to any of them. I was telling my hubster these sentiments. He just giggled a bit. How could I be so attached to the characters? Well, that's how I know it's so well written when I'm that emotionally attached. It's such a heartfelt read. If you like The Help, I totally recommend The Color of Water.

Just Like Her

As I grew older, I thought I was becoming a totally different person than my mom. Yesterday, she reminded me that we still have so much in common. When she was my age, she loved photography and traveling (so she says). Even in her golden years, we share hobbies. We both love to garden and read.Last night, we were browsing Pinterest together. Of course, I get my best habit of all from her which is being a foodie. I guess we're not that different after all. Yay!

Panda Bread


My friend Nic was brave enough to try the panda bread recipe. For our reunion, she brought slices from her mini loaf. She thought that the panda didn't turn out too friendly, but I still think it's pretty adorable.
