I loved reading about your ideal vacation! Sounds like we all have different (and similar) ideas about what a perfect vacation should be like. But I had to laugh out loud at what Heavenly Housewife said here: “My idea of my ideal vacation would be if i could go back to New York and stay [...]

The Beginning to The End of Good Things

July 6, 2010 eating out

Wow. I feel like I’m back in Singapore again. The heat here in Northern Virginia is unbearable. I just read that the temperature is over a 100 degrees and I’m just about to melt! I foresee many, many McDonald’s soft cones in the future. As you can see, I’m back in the States and while [...]

Blown Away. But Still Here.

May 12, 2010 Uncategorized

Yummy Firsts

February 18, 2010 eating disorders
