Just by looking at this picture from a post last year, I think it’s safe to say I’m a risk taker! Wearing leopard, blogging about it, living overseas, chopping off my hair…I’ve always just gone for it. Somehow it’s become a part of my make up. I constantly take risks, I embrace experience, and IContinue reading My Five ~ How I Go For It!
Halloween Roundup
Tomorrow is Halloween! For a kid, Halloween is a pretty fantastic holiday–you get to pose as someone other than yourself, walk around and ask for candy to your heart’s content, return home exhausted but ready to organize, trade, and sample your abundance of goods. I have wonderful memories of Halloween from growing up. My momContinue reading Halloween Roundup
An Essay: The Selfie Stick Stigma
Selfies (or should I say #selfies?) are a part of our life in 2014. The act of taking a picture of oneself may fade out, but for the time being the pictures are here, and they are happening by the second. (In a twelve hour time period, the selfie hashtag in Instagram increased by 292,588Continue reading An Essay: The Selfie Stick Stigma
Mohawk Vinnie
This week is Spirit Week in the middle school for Vincent. The other night he announced that the following day was crazy hair day. What do they say about parents? That we live vicariously through our children. Oh yes, totally. Me personaly, I’ve always wanted to wear a mohawk, but of course never got theContinue reading Mohawk Vinnie
Family Date Night: Motorino in HK
The other day during our skating outing we finished off our excursion with a Family Date Night to Motorino in Wan Chai. We had been meaning to try this pizzeria for some time, and oh! We were pleased! The ambiance is super cozy–especially with the motorino oven burning right before you. It’s a small place,Continue reading Family Date Night: Motorino in HK
Gigi is 11
You’ve probably noticed from my Instagram feed and several posts here on Kremb de la Kremb (like this one) that Kevin and I have got ourselves a skater girl. Yes, Gigi rocks on the board! She’s a dare devil, she’s dedicated, and she WANTSÂ it. Her current goal right now is an ollie–and she’s so close!Continue reading Gigi is 11
Skater Wannabe
I want to be able to be a skater so badly! It’s like one of those skills that I dream about and can do perfectly in my mind, but then get me on a board, and I am so wobbly and ready to break many bones. Kevin can get on the board and cruise aContinue reading Skater Wannabe
Hong Kong Junk Trips
Something really fun happens in the beachy weather of Hong Kong: junk trips! A group of friends will typically get together and hire out a junk for the day. Jaspa’s Junks is one of the most popular companies that offers deliciously catered junks with boozie options all day. I’ve been on two junks so farContinue reading Hong Kong Junk Trips
Gazpacho: Basically a Veggie Smoothie
Yes, Labor Day has passed and hence marked the end of summer, yet the heat may still remain (luckily) for a few more blissful moments. Anything cool will help this heat–including a nice cold soup! There are tons of different versions of gazpacho. I’d venture to say they’re all very similar in taste and procedure.Continue reading Gazpacho: Basically a Veggie Smoothie
Family Date Night: 4th and Main Pizza
Last February I started a Date Night series on Kremb de la Kremb (you can read February, March, May, and June’s dates). This series really helps to get Kevin and me on a date! The kids are old enough now that we can start going on dates again–especially as they become socially busy too! FamilyContinue reading Family Date Night: 4th and Main Pizza
Summer Update
So, I’m feeling a bit stranded from this blog. We’re now out at our cabin–but without Internet. The cabin is wonderful; don’t get me wrong. It’s just an odd feeling not being able to write on my blog when I’ve posted at least three times a week all this year. I’ve got 3G on myContinue reading Summer Update
Sunsets in Stanley
We’re almost outta here for our summer! This Friday morning the kids and I fly out, and then Kevin will follow next Thursday. We have a great summer planned ahead of us: time with family in Seattle, a road trip that will take us through Portland, the Oregon Coast, the Redwood National Forest, and SanContinue reading Sunsets in Stanley
