#26 - Cooking for loved ones




I grilled chicken and artichokes the other day for my hunny. It's one of my favorite ways to show love - with a warm healthy meal.

#25 - Attention to Fine Details



Like these nicely folded napkins at a Cambodia restaurant in the city! (I was away for awhile - but it feels good to be back appreciating the little joys in life.

#24 - The Rose Cafe



I love to chill in cafes. Take in the atmosphere, people watch, read, write, research and grab a iced soy latte and maybe a morning roll. Mmm. A great cafe if ever in LA is the Rose Cafe (4749 Fountain Ave). The have amazing orange tea and orange muffins, plus a fab gift shop!

#23 - Cooking Tropical Foods



This is a tomato, avocado and shrimp salad served on brown rice I made with my bo this summer! When it is warm enough I love to cook dinner to enjoy outside on our deck. I find so much joy in the summer. Hopefully I don't end up with SAD (seasonal affective disorder) in the rainy season. I am making a list of fun things to do in the fall so that should help.

#22 - Strong Shadows



I just love it when strong rays of the sun hit interesting objects creating sharp dark shadows. It never fails to amaze me!
