This week is Spirit Week in the middle school for Vincent. The other night he announced that the following day was crazy hair day. What do they say about parents? That we live vicariously through our children. Oh yes, totally. Me personaly, I’ve always wanted to wear a mohawk, but of course never got theContinue reading Mohawk Vinnie
This Balinese beach we are on is just perfect. During the day, we grab our snorkel gear and head out amongst the coral reef to see all the colorful fish. There’s a bigger resort pool or we can bathe in the intimacy of our own personal little pool at our villa. I’ve decided to getContinue reading Balinese Snake
Cross the little bridge and enter into our villa at Amertha Bali Villa. Here we are in gorgeous Bali, and Kevin has definitely out done himself with this booking. Many years ago when we met my parents in Thailand, Kevin had planned such a wonderful trip that my parents started referring to him as KevStar Travels.Continue reading KevStar Travel Tips
We are so lucky to have family in Asia! We’ve got two sets of Krembs in Hong Kong–us and Cork and Sally. Then, my sister Mary is in Shanghai. Plus we’ve got another set of Krembs–Brian and Jen, in Jakarta. For the past weekend we’ve been visiting the Jakarta Krembs, and we’ve had such anContinue reading Jakarta Krembs
The other day during our skating outing we finished off our excursion with a Family Date Night to Motorino in Wan Chai. We had been meaning to try this pizzeria for some time, and oh! We were pleased! The ambiance is super cozy–especially with the motorino oven burning right before you. It’s a small place,Continue reading Family Date Night: Motorino in HK
Mary is in Shanghai! I feel so lucky that I was able to zip up and spend some fast yet furious time with her. I had a really neat time catching up with Mary; I’m very happy for her to be living in such a vibrant city, and she is settling in well. In fact,Continue reading ShangMarLa
You’ve probably noticed from my Instagram feed and several posts here on Kremb de la Kremb (like this one) that Kevin and I have got ourselves a skater girl. Yes, Gigi rocks on the board! She’s a dare devil, she’s dedicated, and she WANTS it. Her current goal right now is an ollie–and she’s so close!Continue reading Gigi is 11
I want to be able to be a skater so badly! It’s like one of those skills that I dream about and can do perfectly in my mind, but then get me on a board, and I am so wobbly and ready to break many bones. Kevin can get on the board and cruise aContinue reading Skater Wannabe
Yes, Labor Day has passed and hence marked the end of summer, yet the heat may still remain (luckily) for a few more blissful moments. Anything cool will help this heat–including a nice cold soup! There are tons of different versions of gazpacho. I’d venture to say they’re all very similar in taste and procedure.Continue reading Gazpacho: Basically a Veggie Smoothie
Well, this is the last set of Cabin Candids from Summer 2014. (Here’s The 4th, Cousins and Camp, Rusty and Ted, and Nicholas and Amy.) It’s fitting that this compilation of pictures is one of our summer highlights. It’s been two summers in a row now where at the end of packing up and closingContinue reading Cabin Candis: CdA {Coeur d’Alene}
From left to right: Julie, Adrian, Annie, Mary, and Nicholas All my pics from the summer out at Spirit Lake are drawing to an end.

My brother Nicholas and sister-in-law Amy were able to visit us a couple of times out at Spirit Lake: once over the 4th and another time while Rusty and Ted were there. It’d been a while since we’d been able to spend time with these two, so we felt lucky to hang out with NicholasContinue reading Cabin Candids: Nicholas and Amy
