For those keeping track at home, I'm still very much committed to my new healthier lifestyle. I had the option of getting a cheeseburger but I chose to have a grilled turkey sandwich (from Starbucks, no less) instead. Go me!
And speaking of healthier lifestyles, I recently discovered this recipe. Now, I made it with chicken, however, I feel if you substitute the chicken with tofu, it'll be a great
I took these pictures of Bae and Baby Bae over a week ago. I'm not a professional photographer by any means, but hey, I'm rather impressed by how they turned out!

I'm rather new to the world of face primers. I didn't know there was a science on prepping your face even more before the first touch of foundation hits it. I'm used to scrubbing, toning, moisturizing, and then the foundation.
Now I need to prime my face?
It sounds weird but it's a dope concept. Primer smoothes out your pores, minimizing them and make your face overall smoother before you put on your

On the days Bear is not in school, we do a lot of lesson plans. Okay, who am I B.S.ing? I try to sit him down long enough for a couple of minutes while I attempt to do lesson plans with him. There, that's more accurate.
Recently, Bear was given an educational gift by the author of Hello Aaaron! Where Are You? Nellie Emrani. It's actually a pretty cool book that
Not really, but it is.
Every year, I always treat the day before my birthday as a New Year's Eve and my birthday as, well, New Year's Day. You know how everyone treats January 1st as the start-over and start afresh? New year, new me, type of deal?
I do that with my birthday.
I feel every birthday is a chance of getting that glow-up on. What better way to figure out
I love NARS. I love NARS. I love NARS. I love NARS. I'm not entirely sure how it was I discovered NARS (I think a Sephora rep gave me their product to try and I was hooked, or at least that's the urban legend I put together in my head), but it doesn't matter.
I love NARS. It's very rare I find a product from them I hate. Well, hate
So, a while back, Bear and I went to visit Kidspace in our neighboring Pasadena. We've never been there before so I didn't know what to expect. I will tell you it was so much fun!
Kidspace is a science-based adventure park where kids can do science experiments, play with insects, and just get away from the tablets and video games. I highly, highly recommend it!

There's nothing like attending a music festival.
My husband and I have attended many over the years. The last one we went to was when Bear wasn't quite a year old. We went to see Parliament Funkadelic and other acts. In fact, I can say Bear's first music festival was when he was a toddler:

And well, I'm contemplating keeping this.
It's been a crazy experiment in our household. Like I've mentioned previously, we decided to go vegetarian after I've watched What The Health and was inspired to make sweeping changes to our diet and lifestyle.
As a result, I lost weight, my skin became a lot clearer, and I have more energy. My hubby can report the same. Bear has always had a plant-based diet
It's one of those purchases where I look at, think how cute it is, and then wonder, 'Okay, do I really need any more shit in the backseat of my car?'
Turns out, yes.
Bear has his own setup in the backseat. He has a container for snacks. He has a blanket. He brings his iPad with him sometimes. He has toy cars and what have you. I mean this kid's
