More Maroon Bells Photos – The Hike

This is the direct opposite view of the Maroon Bells.  It was probably around 7:45 am when we started hiking.  Some bushes and leaves were thinly frosted.  The areas that received the sun's ray first had dew droplets on them.  It was very magical and peaceful.

Composure

[Maple] Autumn is here and it is beginning to look nostalgically beautiful all around with the yellows, oranges, and reds in the trees and bushes.  Pumpkin muffins and apple crisps are on my mind. 🙂 Here is a totally awesome song (music) with a bittersweetness to it.  I have this on repeat when I need...

And, remember Georgio's "I... Continue Reading →

Backyard Finally Done!

Our backyard is finally done.  To see the before photos with similar views of the images above, go here. Here are more before and after: The grass does look a little funny with the two colors but it's because they were from two different harvest. One was harvested before the other.  They are the same...

Spicy Green Papaya Salad With A Twist

Recently, I've been craving papaya salad with Romaine lettuce.  The freshness and crunchiness from the lettuce combined with the sweet, sour, and spicy papaya is like heaven.  The spicy peanuts on top makes it heaven x2.  I only bought a small papaya salad so I finished it all in a day and a half.  I...
