The NEW Year 2013

I know I'm a little late, but..............

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wooooo, it's been awhile!!

This holiday break, I really took some downtime to relax. It's been a hectic year, so it was so pleasant to shut down the computer for awhile. I know I haven't written in awhile, but trust me, I have so much new EATS for you folks out there! Of course, I couldn't end the year without recapping and reminiscing about how great 2012 has been to me.

I've been thinking quite a bit about my New Year's Resolutions. I've done a good job with this past year's declarations (see here for last year's recap): Be more punctual, check! Save more money- I've been better with that (despite my undying passion for food, clothes and shoes), so, check! And last but not least, get at least 8 hours of sleep, definitely check!

What have I thought up for this year?

1. Instead of being on time, I want to work on being 5 minutes early now. What's that quote? "If you're early, you're on time. If you're on time, you're late."

2. Better posture. Butt out, chest up, shoulders back!

3. NO texting while driving. You know you do it, and I admit I check my phone from time to time, but folks, this is definitely a no-no. 

Last but not least, I wish you all a happy, healthy, and safe 2013! It's going to be great one!

Below are some pictures of all the food I've been eating this past holiday. I was in a food coma for most of it. SO SO SO much food!!



Wait until you see what's inside this de-boned turkey!





Sticky rice with lup cheong!
