Vanilla ice cream on a Tollhouse cookie with lots of hot fudge — heaven!!! Just reliving sweet memories of my favorite dessert from Long Beach’s Parker Lighthouse.
In other news:
– I am putting together the If Books Were Food round-up. Life has been crazy, but you’ll see it in a bit.
– I am serious about losing weight. I just have to find the perfect gym. Fitness First just doesn’t cut it with me anymore — too many people. *shivers* I used to work out at this little gym once upon a time but it no longer stands. Oh well. I will be on the lookout for something like that.
– But when I saw the dinuguan and puto at my grandma’s party yesterday, I couldn’t resist. All plans of eating healthily go away when a bowl of delicious Filipino merienda is presented to you.
– Some relatives came home from the U.S. and they brought me Swiffer refills. W00t!
– Did you know that scientists invented an onion that doesn’t make you tear up? Read it on Yahoo news. I don’t like the idea. Don’t mess with my onions!
– I’m hungry. If you’re eating right now, as in right now while you’re reading this, are you willing to share what you’re feasting on?

Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,

at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

I’m eating muesli with fresh strawberries and low-fat milk now. Boring but healthy.
