I love the bento box at I-Zu but I also love trying new things. The other day when visiting I-Zu, I decided to try something new and they suggested Hoidupbab so I gave it a shot.
The way I had to enter this into my [...]
Living in Dayton can make you feel pretty special sometimes and after discovering Sweet P’s the other day (I thought it was just in the market, so I was very happy!) I felt pretty special indeed because not every town has a specialty popsicle shop and ours is quite yummy.
Well it looks like the weather might actually perk up a bit this weekend so I thought it would be a perfect time to talk about Skin, an Apothecary‘s newest scent – Santorini.
Santorini is a beautiful place that looks like this:
This scent is amazing, fresh, and [...]
Having never been to the Greek Festival, I really didn’t know what to expect. Maybe some food, maybe some dancing, Greek beer? I don’t know.
What I found is that the Greek Festival = Food, and lots of it. Unfortunately, aside from the amazing pastry, pretty much everything had meat in it [...]
Before seeing The Godfather II at the Michelob Ultra Cool Film Series at the Victoria Theatre, Beth and Kayleigh decided to go out to dinner (yes, for Beth’s birthday. Don’t worry, she already knows it’s excessive). I decided to tag along and they didn’t stop [...]
I have not been shy about my love for calendars and this post is no exception. When I flipped my desk calendar at work to August a few days ago, I was greeted with this picture, which made me happy. Not just because my sister is in it and it may [...]

I am the Coffee Fairy. Give me a day off from work and I bring coffee to my loved ones, especially my husband. It’s something I also used to do for my dad when he was sick, not to mention many other under-caffeinated people throughout the years. I’m not always as thoughtful as [...]
On the last day of our staycation, my husband and I tried to make the best of a sad situation – having to go to work the next day – by spending time together and having fun.
We went on a walk in our neighborhood to Highland Park. Everything [...]
That’s the best name we could come up with.
My sister came over and we hung out for a minute while I did some tech stuff (sort of) to get my new iPhone working properly and setting up my old iPhone to give to my husband. We took a break and went [...]
Welcome!
I love Dayton, I've lived here for all of my 26 years and don't plan on settling anywhere else. I started this blog as a way to showcase the best of Dayton (as seen through my perspective) and also to share some of the things that occupy space in my mind, namely beauty, home decor, quotes, and various aspects of my life.
