Richmond Hill. May 2014
For this photo challenge, I originally wanted to find a photo that showed a weed growing out of the sidewalks or roads. We’ve all seen that little sprig of greenery pop out of nowhere on the concrete roads knowing that there was probably insufficient soil or nutrients for it to grow properly but yet there you see it popping out and thriving too.

Golden Griddle located at 146 Laird Drive in Toronto
Before heading to the Science Centre for a day of fun, we enjoyed breakfast at the Golden Griddle at their Leaside location. It was a quiet spot for breakfast on a snowy winter day. Since it was the 29th of December, many people might have either been at work or off for the holidays so we didn’t see too many people inside at this homey restaurant. Continue reading

Novita Italian Cuisine located at 25 Cochrane Dr in Markham
After a week of being sick and completing last-minute transcript orders before the holidays, I was finally able to emerge and enjoy food at a brand new restaurant! 😀 I had been wanting to try this restaurant with two friends for a holiday dinner but due to me being sick, I wasn’t able to visit Novita Italian Cuisine until later on the weekend at which time Ken and I had a full day of food adventures before arriving at Novita Italian at 7:30 p.m for dinner.

Sept 24. 2016 – Jade Garden at Tai Po Plaza (太和翠園).
This marked one of the first and many family dinners that we had in Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong. I’m not going to really comment about the food or service in particular unless there was something really outstanding so this post is mostly of photos of the food…. Continue reading

An emotional journey
Written in July 2016:
I’ve been thinking and brainstorming about how to go about writing this. This is a very personal post and reflects my own experience and perspective of what I went through in the last two and a half years of being in a network marketing company. I’ll start with the very beginning and include all and any details that I can think of. Thanks in advance for reading. Continue reading
Shiretoko National Park, Hokkaido, Japan. October 2016
This was the picturesque view while walking along the path at Shiretoko National Park in Hokkaido, Japan in October this year. It was autumn time and the air was so crisp and fresh while strolling along this boardwalk. I really enjoyed it. 🙂
In other news, this year was definitely an interesting path to walk. More details to come in the post tonight (:p) and on the last day of 2016. 🙂
Emack & Bolio’s located at 26 Cochrane St, Central in Hong Kong
After our lunch at BEP, we walked around and stopped at Emack & Bolio’s in Central for some dessert. Walking into Emack & Bolio’s, there were a lot of people here already and their display of premade ice cream cones behind the glass counter was so impressive and super photogenic. (They also sold smoothies, milkshakes, and chocolates but for the purpose of this post, I am going to talk all about their ice cream.) There were so many ice cream cones displayed upside down (with the pointy cone facing up) that were covered with Fruit Loops! I had definitely seen anything like this before. Continue reading
