Ready to go ANYTIME!!

The other day when our accountant couple came to our house, the husband asked:  "Why do I looked so dressed-up even at home?!!" 


Yes, I always do, don't I!!? ^^ 


Especially we just got home by the time we had a meeting w/ them.  I ever said that I don't have time to change since I am always on-the-go and the time I do stay home is because I have to blog or the minute before the meal time. :P


The husband:"What about the greasy, oily smell gets on the clothes??" 


Again, he must not already read my blog. :P I said, "I'd buy new clothes anyway or put them into dry-clean....... Besides, I am not a 3-year-old and my cooking skill is not lousy after all!!" hahaha...




No particular plan for us last long weekend except for booking hotels, buying air tickets for our Italy and London trip during Thanksgiving in Nov. !! DH said that we have to travel "LIGHT" this time.  I replied: "Oh, sure, I KNOW, I KNOW, of course!!" heehee... I bet you are aware of that too!!! lol


Saturday
We went to the Shoup park in Los Altos first then Half Moon Bay in the late afternoon to avoid the crowd.

The bib necklace turns out quite versatile since it can really jazz up otherwise too plain top and add depth/interest to the outfit!

We are training Niel to ride w/ two wheels.... DH and I got to run w/ him to balance him w/ that training bar so we get to exercise w/ him.

Nop, I won't be wearing YSL heels in the park. I always have a spare flip flops in the car when high fashion look is not required. ^O^

Somehow we started our little shopping for the trip to Italy which I think I am getting too excited about. Hum... no shopping till we are actually THERE!! ^^

You are unstopable, always on the go!

Love your Givenchy hobo, looks great on you!

Let me know if you need any tips regarding London.
Hi, Mona:
Ah, Please do give us some pointers regarding places, museum, flea market..... to visit in London. We are only staying 3 days total there so I know I have to really visit landmarks there. ^^

So, lay them out for me, would you!! ^^

I love the glass pumpkins @ Stanford! I bought my 1st one 3 years ago but I could not find any that I like since then, maybe I will get lucky this year :)
ha, Michelle, same here,... I got mine (first) like 2 years ago and then the second one (in my hand).

The owner told me that he made that one himself and since he can't find "IT" in the system, he had to use other tag and $4 off there~~ He also gave Abby a clear glass (I am not so sure if it is even a pumpkin) for souvenir.

You know, yours must not have "signature" engraved on the pumpkin as MINE from the past year doesn't either. The owner (Bowes?) said that he'd love to sign/engraves that pumpkin for us if we took it BACK. ^^ I think I am going to do that~
I'm crazy for those leather things...vest and jacket! How stylish!

Hi Rachel, that's good to know! The one you picked this year is very pretty, I should go check it out before all the pretty ones are gone :) Oh, I will go check if my old one has a signature. Thanks for the tip!

Make a Wish w/ Russia Babushka doll!!

My friend, Michelle asked me about my opinion of Chanel Babushka doll's necklace once and I said "Not worth getting it"!! Now I am not so sure if I would say the same thing to this adorable babushka doll clutch!! lol However, even I want to find it, this doll clutch is probably long gone by now!! I have a real Russia Babushka doll made in Russia which is a gift from 10 years ago! I couldn't find the same one in USA since this set of 15 nesting dolls are truly intricate!! This is the biggest one which has the most exquisite engraving. Total 15 of them! (2 are missing from the pic.) I heard that you can make a wish w/ these nesting dolls. If your wish comes true, you can open one until all 15 are all open!! I never made any wish w/ them, guess I was too realistic of a person myself. I don't know if each engraved temple/castle on the dolls represents something. You can't open the smallest one which is only the size of the little finger nail. I adore those golde

Birthday Gift from My Dearest Darling!! Oh, Hermes!!
