my Wong life

Happy Friday!  Here are some of my latest finds that have brought me joy!  Hope they’ll bring you some joy too! Kodiak Power Cakes Flapjack and Waffle Mix ($4.99 at Target) – These are protein pancakes, but they actually taste good–like regular pancakes.  I use […]

On Sunday, we drove to Brentwood to Airaya U-Pick Farms to pick white peaches. This was our first time picking peaches and also our first time to Airaya U-Pick Farms. We had a wonderful experience. Masks are mandatory but I took it off briefly to […]

Tiered Cami Maxi Dress ($49.00)- I ordered this in Tango Red and immediately had buyer’s remorse.  Although our shelter-in-place has ended, we’re still mainly at home, so where am I going to wear this to?  I was really hoping not to love it when it […]

Since we’re still sheltering in place,  I’ve been trying to read more and have been watching a lot of Chinese Dramas.   I usually have to watch it with English subtitles to fully understand the intricate plots of crime and thriller shows, but for light romances, […]

It’s amazing how food brings back memories! I remember when I was in middle school, the home economics teacher had her students bake gigantic chocolate chip cookies and she would sell the cookies for $1 each as a fundraiser for the school.  I remember the […]

I can’t believe Mother’s Day is almost here. For some reason, I thought it was at the end of the month. I’ve compiled a list of all the things I would love to receive or have received in the past and have loved. Classic Comfy […]
