A few fun things..


I started this blog earlier in the fall, and then neglected it as soon as school work became overwhelming- but I'm back! I plan to blog often now that I actually have time :)

This Christmas was truly wonderful. Though it was just my parents and I, my mom still cooked enough food to feed 10 (typical Asian mother move lol). I had such a great time hanging out with them, drinking egg nog by the fire, watching Christmas movies, sharing stories, and laughing. I'm incredibly lucky to have such great parents. 

 Here's a few fun things from my life over the past week:

My favorite ornament on the tree since I was little, a mini dollhouse. I look forward to unwrapping and hanging this up every year. 

Arugula salad with blackberries, mandarin oranges, & goat cheese - My contribution to Christmas dinner

Bought this pretty green wine glass for displaying dangly earrings

Vintage and oriental jewelry boxes sit stacked on my bookshelf (surrounded by books from middle school- don't judge me! :) )

My nightstand currently

A pretty tray from anthropologie holds my watches

I was so excited to find this lovely gilded dress form at pier 1! I've been on the hunt for one forever. I love it's antiqued look and it's perfect for displaying jewelry- I plan on using it at future eff.Y.bee trunk shows and events :)

My mom & I
My wonderful parents- (I love how I captured my step-dad laughing)

My darling little Brody giving me a kiss by the tree<3


Hope you all had a wonderful holiday with your families and got everything that you wished for :)
Love,
Alyssa
