Kevin with his folks, Jane and Alex Krembs We are so lucky for all the family time in Hong Kong. With Kevin’s brother living here our kids get to have cousins right next door for the very first time. Plus, with five grandkids in Hong Kong it warrants for visits from Grammy and Babaji. (SinceContinue reading Family Time in Hong Kong
Here’s a styling of a black velvet suit from last winter. Every December there are a bunch of things I want to get done before we leave Hong Kong for our Christmas holiday. This year we will be heading to Bali on December 20th with Kevin’s folks will joining us December 26. I’m so lookingContinue reading December 2018 To-Do List
It’s rather early this month, but here we are on the last Friday of October. I have to be honest with you my readers: I’ve been looking forward to sharing what I’ve been up to all month long. There has been so much good stuff. I don’t even know when and where or what toContinue reading What I’ve Been Up To This October
It’s Monday, August 6, and I leave for back for Hong Kong in a couple of hours. With two hours left of summer, I wanted to get these Spirit Lake summer candids posted. It was great summer. They always are. Especially when we get family time out at Spirit Lake. With my sister renting theContinue reading Cabin Candids—Spirit Lake Summer 2018
Summer time is coming to an end. My sister has started a new saying though: instead of “All good things must come to an end,” she declares, “All good things are wonderful.” And this summer has been just that–WONDERFUL! We started in Seattle and did our usual things like visiting Pike Place and going toContinue reading Summer Summer Summer Summer Time
Oh Hey Vacay! Yes, it’s true: it’s been quiet over here on Kremb de la Kremb because I have been on vacation. I went to Santa Barbara with every intention of getting a post out while I was down there, but in the end…well, I enjoyed my vacation with my in-laws. We always have suchContinue reading Oh Hey Vacay!
I’m at my happy place: Spirit Lake, Idaho! Since we arrived it as been chilly, chilly, chilly–just as I predicted. Luckily, I have a wardrobe full of all my Idaho essentials like these slouchy Levi’s, my very, very old flannel shirt, and the perfectly worn in pair of flip flops. My hair has even startedContinue reading An Idaho 4th
Every summer since 1997, we spend a bit of time with Kevin’s folks in Seattle. And every summer, we always set aside one day to take a trip down to Pike Place. That means for 20 odd summers or so we’ve been visiting Pike Place every single time we go to Kevin’s home, and theContinue reading Pike Place with Babaji
This girl of mine, Gigi Krembs, well, she’s pretty awesome! Her smile is contagious and her heart is pure gold. All of her teachers can only give us compliments: like how kind she is to her classmates, what a leader she is amongst her peers, the fearlessness she exhibits with her questions. Yes, every timeContinue reading Gigi Krembs’ Celebration
There are so many mothers out there. There are so many mothers in my own life: my mom, my godmother, my mother-in-law, my sisters, sister-in-laws. There are all my aunties and girlfriends. There are the women who may or may not have children, yet they still mother. Mothering is an instinctual part of being female.Continue reading So Many Mothers
I wanted to celebrate on Monday: the 7th of May is the day I became a mom 16 years ago. Therefore, to add a little glam to my librarian look, I went for my sparkly Star Wars tee and my striped sequin mini. Granted, this skirt may be a little too short–I was constantly makingContinue reading A Librarian Look–Star Wars and Sequins
For my birthday, celebrated in Luang Prabang, Laos, we all went to cooking school. It was such fun, and of course very, very delicious. Any good cooking school starts with the local market–in which we had an extensive visit. It was so fascinating, super colorful, and full of smells, both good and bad! The actualContinue reading Cooking School in Luang Prabang
