It’s the weekend! (The weekends are Thur/Fri here in KSA.) And so far, this one has been lots of fun and filled with tons of GREEN! I oftentimes come up with my post titles or ‘themes’ as I’m going through the pictures of the day, and today I was struck with how vibrantly green my [...]

Find Happiness Within
This past weekend I definitely found happiness within – and without! It was a bit of a whirlwind, with work, yet another trip to Bahrain, and brunch with friends, but I loved every minute of it. The weekend started with my latest assignment for the local paper, which had me attending an event that just [...]
Born to be Wild – Saudi Style
Earlier this month was the annual Harley Davidson Rally, here in Dhahran. There is actually a fairly large biker sub-culture here in KSA, and everyone was anxious to show off their bikes. There was also an antique car display, lots of food and games booths, and a wide array of other recreational groups represented – [...]
The Chocolate Peanut Butter Cure
Hi there! Anyone still out there? Considering the sporadic nature of my posts lately, I can’t imagine there are too many of you. I do know friends and family around the world keep up with the blog out of obligation a keen interest in the mundane goings on of my life. So, to all of [...]
Junk in the Trunk.
This weekend was all about the junk, and it was perfect. It didn’t start out that way, though. It actually started out pretty healthy. Divine, as always. After breakfast we trekked across the causeway to Bahrain. We have been going there a lot lately, out of necessity. Errands, meetings, and appointments galore. Our meetings took [...]
On the House.
Last week Cody and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary with a delicious meal at what is now our favorite restaurant in Bahrain – Bushido. Since that meal I have talked that place up about a dozen times with various people. It was just that good and the service was just that incredible. We actually [...]
Christmas Catch-Up!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy (almost) New Year! The past week has been packed full of fun, food, and happiness. Cody takes 2 weeks off of work for Christmas every year, so we have been enjoying each other’s company, spending lots of time out and about with the dogs and playing with Ender almost [...]
Confessions: Loving Lately
Life is so good around these parts! The weather is beyond fantastic, I finished up my second semester back in grad school (straight A’s, thank you very much!), and Cody finished with grad school entirely. I’m so proud. He’s now got his MBA! There is lots to love these days, and I wanted to share [...]
The Lazy Cook’s No-Bake Nutella Cheesecake
My love for nutella has been well chronicled on this blog (nutella ice cream, anyone?), and lately I had been trying to dream up ways to jazz it up a bit for the holidays. There was just one thing holding me back. You see, I’m lazy. Really lazy. And whenever I started thinking a nutella [...]
Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Muffins – refined sugar free!
These are my very favorite muffins. Pumpkin spice is such an amazing flavor, redolent with cinnamon and the earthy perfection of pumpkin and ginger. It’s great any time of year, but especially fitting during autumn, of course. And adding sweet chunks of dark chocolate only make these little goodies even more spectacular. While the flavor [...]
