Warm Winter Clothes For Fast Growing Kids: Kids Fashion with #CookiesKids
January 18, 2013 By 3 Comments

It has been so very cold here in Vegas! Being from Southern California, cold fronts this intense catch me off guard and Alina's Winter wardrobe wasn't quite prepared for so much cold for this length of time. A few weeks ago, I took to the internet to find some cute and affordable Winter kids fashion option. I was bored with my usual shopping destinations, but didn't want to overspend. I always thought of  CookiesKids.com as the online store for school uniforms, but was excited to find out that they have popular brands at amazing prices. Cookie’s Kids carries brands such as The North … [Read more...]

Family History: Baby’s First Hat

Family History: Baby’s First Hat
October 18, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Call me crazy, but I like guys in hats. They're in our family history, I guess you can say. Both my grandfathers wore hats. Even though I was young, I remember how my paternal grandfather would, with one sweeping hand, take it off to scratch his bald head, just to nestle it neatly back on. The mechanics of that movement took maybe 5 seconds flat. It was amazing. After my beloved Papi passed away, I took one of his old beanies home. It stayed in my closet, tucked in a corner, when on hard days I could press it close to my face and smell all my family history in the fabric. The smell has … [Read more...]

A Little Girl’s Summer of Dresses

A Little Girl’s Summer of Dresses
September 13, 2012 By 2 Comments

As our weather cools and winter approaches, a shift in my little girl's wardrobe is inevitable. The collection of summer dresses that has been our clothing staple will turn to sweaters, cardigans and jeans. But when the weather is hot and the hues of our world are bight, this little girl enjoys the ease and flow of a summer dress more than any other piece of clothing. Alina has a collection of summer dresses. She has her favorites, as do I, which are usually the toddler dresses that make a definitive statement while keeping true to age appropriate expectations. Although I love the sweet … [Read more...]

As It So Happens….

April 2, 2011 By 2 Comments

I forgot to order my Bountiful Basket this week. Oops! I will have to draw inspiration for this week's menu from my cookbooks and such. So in case you stopped by to swoon over delicious photos, there are none. So sorry! Instead, I'll leave you with a few of my sweet princess from yesterday. She looks so big in her jean shorts and summer top. Auntie bought her first pair of flip flop style sandals, and watching her master them this week has been a hoot. She has started to say "hands up!" and stick her arms straight up in the air... watching her learn new things has been the coolest part of my … [Read more...]

Sunglass Season!

March 30, 2011 By 2 Comments

After nearly six years of living in this land of desert, I can recognize the gradual change of seasons from "too cold for my California blood" to "too hot for anyone but crazy tourists". And that change is a happenin'. You get a week full of gloom, then a great day in the 60's. Followed by a few days of cloud coverage, with a couple days in the lower 70's. Now the forecast says temperatures will be in the mid to high 80's all week long. It's only a matter of time now. Oh ya baby, get ready for some triple digit temperatures!These few weeks are truly my favorite of the year. The flowers are … [Read more...]
