It has been a busy March, both at work and at home. This weekend I finally feel that I can relax a little… What’s happening? I went to a concert at the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum in Boston. The theft at the museum was a big news for a long time. I went to the […][...]

Happy Chinese New Year!
I am really glad Cathy & Dennis, Sharon & Dennis, Janet & Jen made it to my place for the Chinese New Year dinner today. I was wondering if the snow storm might prevent them coming… I realized yesterday that I didn’t have a pot big enough to put in 8 cornish game hens. After [...]

Super Bowl Party and Snow Storm Nemo
Following my new tradition, I hosted a little Super Bowl party and invited a couple of friends over. Matt is the first one showed up. He was also here last year. It’s a low-key kind of party. I asked everyone to wear sweat pants and t-shirt. So we could all be comfortable, eat some good [&hell[...]

Holiday season – part II
Happy New Year! Today is the last day of my holiday break. I have been doing several random stuff around the house during the break: shoveling snow after two snow storms within a week, following the conditioning videos provided by my friends Kit and Olivia from Australia, reading in front of the fir[...]

Holiday season – part I
It was nice to have the whole week off during the Christmas holiday. I had a list of things to do, mainly errands around the house. I just went with the flow and did whatever came into my mind. I always wanted to visit the Harvard Museum of Natural History. I was told that there […][...]

Cooking beef noodle soup
It was a cold week/weekend. I got some time before I went to Matt and Jun’s holiday party in Boston last Saturday. I stopped by a Chinese grocery store and picked up the ingredients for the beef noodle soup. I figured it should be a good comfort food for the cold weather. I haven’t cooke[...]

Heading home today from Curaçao
My flight is taking off at 4:30pm today. Before I checked out at the hotel by noon, I went to the beach in the morning after I returned the rental car. Just get some more fresh and warm air. A little crab came to keep me company. The hotel is putting on Christmas decorations. A […][...]

Road trip around the island
I visited several places since I arrived in Curaçao. I decided to just drive around and stopped whenever I wanted today. After breakfast, I drove to the west and visited some more beaches. The beach in St. Michael didn’t attract too many people. I kept going west. I ran into a pond next to th[...]

Herb garden, aquarium, and beaches (again)
Today started a bit tough. My rental car wouldn’t start this morning before I left the hotel. The rental company sent a guy over. All he did was replacing the battery and the car started! It’s an easy fix but I had to wait for them to come over. I kept reminding myself the island [&helli[...]

Mountains and beaches in Curaçao
Today started with renting a car. I was picked up by the car rental company and did all the paperwork in Salinja, which is east of Willemstad. So I got this little car and a map from the rental company, and here I went! Fortunately, they drive on the right side of the road here. […][...]
