happy.

as much as rye and i bicker, i love him.

i'm so excited to grocery shop with him tonight. wtf is wrong with me?

anyways, my mom is going to china and korea tomorrow for three weeks.

so freaking long! i've been a busy bee learning all the 

tasks i will be handling while she's away. also,

she is going to miss mother's day for the first time since rye and i got married

so we decided to throw her a little mother's day brunch before she left.

i woke up at 5:30 and made a spread.

scrambled eggs with garlic and parsley

turkey sausage with mushrooms and sauteed kale

grilled asparagus with lemon, garlic and EVOO

freshly baked garlic onion bread

bacon and soy bacon.

i picked up some fresh flowers (ranunculus and kale for most of them)

and added them for some color on the table. we had the

brunch at work since we are so so busy and i really enjoyed 

the time we had with my mom on her last day here before her trip.

i also brought infused mint milk and 

homemade OJ (with a hint of pineapple juice)

i love the jars i used that i got from heath but you can get them

from crate and barrel too! they are cheap, chic and great for

sauces, juices that you can store at home. the brand

is WECK and they come in all different shapes and sizes.

i also made my own version of a coffee mint mojito 

(inspired by PHILZ!)

happy mothers day mom. you rool.

cold mondays.

for some reason, it's been chilly here in LA

and it has 1- given me a chance to wear all my winter/fall 

clothes for the last time before i bust out my 

cut offs and tanks. its kind of a happy/sad

feeling to see the gloomy san fransisco-esque

mornings when I wake up and make my coffee.

i've been religiously using the CHEMEX i bought us

and i've been trying to become

the coffee expertist i was born to be. which.. really isn't 

doing well at all. I feel like i should you-tube a pro

at making my fresh coffee or at least research some more...

i guess its the effort that counts. will update

more on my coffee roasting skillZ soon.. when i really am a pro :)

we stopped by philz this past wkend on our road trip.. so happy

to get some fresh beans from philz! and of course

we got our mint mojito coffees togo!!

so last week, i really bundled up for the weather. 

so many layers of knits. 

the shirt is by GAP, the cardigan sweater is 

a men's line called shades of grey and my scarf is rag and bone.

i'm wearing some tights with my black booties.

this is one of my favorite cardigans and works with so many

of my outfits. it has probably been my staple for the last

1-2 years... and can you believe its a men's line?

i got it at their sample sale they had in 2011 and 

got it with some other coats/jackets i got for rye. SCORE! 

happy monDAZE.

bloated. justkidding, just fat.

so for some reason, 

ever since i've gotten married- my LB has been

cuhrazy.  i guess its due to stress and other "Events"

but especially after coachella.. 

my fatass has gained a SOLID five pounds.

with that being said, i'm on a pretty strict

diet of lots of fruits and veggies.

today's lunch consists of a grapefruit, apple and

mango. all my favorites. I'm planning on

grilled fish with kale and spinach tonight. 

its surprisingly easy.. as i'm not hungry AT ALL 

which just shows how much i drank and ate

this weekend HAHA :) losing weight

pretty much means being healthy so 

its not too hard or stressful.... =)

i get super depressed though, when i look at my wardrobe.

i don't dare to put on my jeans right now as

it will most likely stress me out. 

with that being said, im dressing like MC hammer this week.

you likey? 

comme de garcon sneakers,

james perse low crotch sweats, 

current elliot leopard print chambray 

black nameless tanktop.

happy fatday!

xo

pak

omg.

i feel like music is my boyfriend

i kind of broke up with a while ago. i'm 

so back and jammin out to oldies like the faint and bayside.

so so happy to be home but coachella

was such an amazing experience. i'm

so glad i got to share it with my best frand and hubby.

will post more pics later for a recap of the weekend!

xoxo

tewz.dei.

stressed.

depressed.

but dressed well.

(a little OP to make you...and me feel better. or ugly.
pick your poison)

indeed.

i stopped by brandymelville

for the first time. i know, i'm a little late but

i'm really intrigued by their marketing

and production. the price points are low

but the quality.. is obviously what you pay for. they mix

their house brand with hudson jeans and one teaspoon

which is interesting seeing that all their dresses

tops and sweaters are all under 30$ it seems. i guess

buying your shitty ass tank top for 8$ is best when you

buy your booty shorts for 130$ from one teaspoon? 

mixing your merchandise and customer is dangerous. 

they seem to be doing well though. the salesgirl

stopped me to compliment my scarf and she asked

where i got it- i said it was rag and bone. she said

"what's that? "

so i left.

xo 

pak.

i feel 100% dumber. more dumb. dumbest.

one of my fav couples are h+c

they're an adorable couple

that i met through my best friend jeni. hanna is 

jeni's little sister and carly is her wife.

i attended their AMAZING wedding last year

and its been so fun getting to know both of them

separately and together as a couple. i think any couple

would be blessed to have even half the love that they have in their marriage.

they are def one our favorites for double dates and dinner parties.

anyways, i'm writing about them bc

carly just emailed me and i happened to notice she has 

a blog as well.

http://cjansengisprojects.blogspot.com/

what the fuck. mind you, they both go to ucla

and carly is seriously scary smart.

i don't even think this blog is in english. 

or is it?

wait? if this is about maps, why doesn't it have restaurants and shops

on them? or where is siri to tell you to go left or right?

she boggles my mind.

hehe 

happy almost friday!

pak

missing....

i miss the sun

the sand

the laughs 

the drinks

the water.

i need a vacation.

yes, again. 

1 month is too long ha!

hawaii is nothing compared to the west indie islands, carib...

but its close.. and will do for my 

day dreaming..

xo

camo.

camo is obv the new black right now

and boys AND girls are rocking it hard.

Rustic Dime came out with some rip stop and cotton

printed camos. they're looking really great-

check out my hubby in the cotton stretch ones.

he's wearing his ben sherman sweater with 

elbow patches with his rustic dime camos.

so kewt.

^_^

pak

seriously??

never a fan of the 

Canadian tuxedo but i guess if i were 

to pull it off...

how is she so perfect??

olivia p... u are amazeballs.

pak

flying.

is it just me or is time

FUCKING FLYING? i feel like

everyday, just flies. it doesn't even matter

if i'm really busy at work or home.. 

it just FLIES.

anyways, our last session for our premarital classes was

yesterday and i am so happy! it was really

interesting to be in that class.. i feel like

it opened our eyes to everything and anything in our

relationship. Pastor john is (obviously) amazing

and really helps us all realize what it means

to be married in a modern time today. 

i am blessed to have a loving husband who is so

giving, and sincere. he is a good man and i am

so proud to say he is mine. 

he is genuine and not a selfish man. 

i love falling asleep next to him, always finding

each others hands as we dream together. 

he is the reason why i wake up

and want to be a better person, wife and daughter.

love you babyboo, my silly goosey. 

you're nekkoya!

:o)

love,

your wife. 

let's dream together,

forever.

almost tres years!!

xo

almost tres months!!

fuhriDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

toatz happeh that its friday.

YAY! 

i've had it with retarded fucking

SAN PEDRO clients who don't pay so i've decided

to vent here.. where no one will know.. kind of.

i mean, this industry is filled with these

shady ass korean companies who 

make labels with us and seem to be DGAF about 

paying. its been 15 days, 30 days, 45 days. 

how am i still asking for 2012 invoices? 

retarded. if you can't even fucking

pay for the PENNIES that labels cost,

how the FUCK are you going to manufacture garments?

pathetic.

anyways, yesterday-MUCH to my surprise

my husband (mr ryan pak *kisses* HEEHEE) requested

NON korean food. WHAT?! have i been cooking THAT

much korean food? yes, 5 days straight. thank you

very much. i'm very proud too

but i guess he's getting sick of it. 

with that, i decided to cook him the lobster ravioli 

i bought last week at trader joes. i've decided at the

beginning of the year, that i would try and stop 

shopping at large chain super markets to help the economy 

and local farmers markets grow. with that being said,

i'm usually either at the downtown farmers markets 

on sundays or/and trader joes from time to time.

i sauteed spinach, onions and garlic first and created

a little bed for the ravioli to sit on. inbetween 

the ravioli- i heated up a little 

light alfredo sauce for flavor and sauce. 

i'm really happy about the way this came out, it was sooo

good and i loved it because he didn't have red meat

which is what i aim to do for most his meals..(high cholesterol much?)

most/all ingredients are from 

local farmers markets and trader joes. 

it really was so yummy, i would def buy it again!

have a great weekend ya'll!!

organic nips.

i kind of love a good organic nipple.

it makes me realize

how conservative society is

and how beautiful a woman's body is.

as long as you don't have some kind of

pepperoni sausage nipple, 

it looks so beautiful.. natural. 

i love it. 

one of my favorite blogs, borntobewild

just posted a recent entry of so much

nipple that i can't stop looking at it.

lesbian much? crossing over to the other side?

maybe. 

enjoy! almost friday!!

please, no banana titties. 

her tits are so great. #titenvy.

pak

sickies.

being a girl sucks.

most of my friends know how

terrible i have it with my "girl problems".

UGH.

anyways, i'm bearing the pain at work

dreaming of my coachella outfits.

denimblog came up with some cute ones!

 i'm impressed! 

i can see myself wearing every single outfit! 

or my own version at least. the 

one that stands out is the ones with the nikes,

so modern and trendy. i love it. maybe with

a DIME PIECE LA crop top?

xo

grumpy pak
