UrbanKitchen: Little Dumplings

I was at the art gallery the other day with my 13 year old son, it's something we really enjoy doing together. We had also received an invite to P.F. Chang's China Bistro on the same day. WHAT? … [Read more...]

Living Vicariously through Crazy Rich Asians

August 26, 2013 by Sonya 1 Comment

The summer months offered a few moments of indulgences. One in the form of reading! One of books I picked up before heading for a quick getaway was Kevin Kwan's debut novel, CRAZY RICH ASIANS. As soon as that sparkly gold hardcover hit the shelves it quickly positioned itself onto the bestsellers … [Read more...]
