MOST DAYS WE DID OUR COOKING AT HOME.... As my BIL used to say, "we are in the land of aplenty"...everything is easily accesible over here in the grocery stalls. A good thing for me too cos I am all for Chinese food, I would miss my homecooked dishes very badly, they called me a "rice pot" (farn...

ONE OF THE MANY HOTELS I LAS VEGAS Which we managed to find time to go is Caesar's Palace. Each of the hotels there have their own theme and attractions especially during the nighfall. They are indeed very intriguing and amazing.....At one of the entrances leading to Caesar....The stars who have...
IT WAS A VERY QUIET MORNING when we drove in to Kingsburg, a Swedish-American town also known as "Little Sweden"... the name given by the community.

The evening before the summer Luaus hula hula started, I took plenty of pictures......But since I am using the ipad now, I couldn't post them up all at one go...
