Capri’s Bakery Norwalk...50 Flavors of Empanadas

They weren’t lying when they said they had 50 different types of empanadas. 

I saw their sign up last week and been wanting to go in. The menu has everything even dessert. Even breakfast empanadas which I tried their bacon egg and cheese. Was delicious. The empanadas are very light and fluffy. $2.45 each or a dozen for $25. Of course I got the dozen. Each empanada is marked with a number so you remember what is in it from the number on the menu. If you take them home they suggest you bake them at 350 degrees for 3-5 mins. 

I can’t wait to try their guava and cream cheese one. 

November 29th...Yes You Will

There’s So Much More To You Beyond Your Looks

When was the last time you were appreciated. Deep down to the core. Not because you looked a certain way but because you are unique. Different. Deep down that’s what it’s about right? 

Yeah pretty can be nice but what about having a beautiful soul. Loving people. Being kind. That to me is true beauty. 

Antler Toss Game

I saw this at CVS the other day for $4.99. I bought it for the kids to play together at Sunday Lunch. Little

did I know it’s been selling all over social media. Even the adults enjoyed it. 

Cute, fun, game for the kids and adults. 

Presence Not Presents

Image a group of pre teens all hanging around. Watching their friend open their gifts. Before she does one friend turns and says I hope you like your gift. It’s cute to see the nervousness and excitement. But from

The person giving then getting.  With hopes and anticipation that the receiver will appreciate it. 

This happened the other day when my daughter was opening her gifts. She then turned to her friend and said at 11 years old. 

“I  don’t care about the presents I care about your presence.”

My mouth hit the floor. At that exact moment I knew my job as a parent paid off. Like big time. I turned to her and said I am so proud of you for saying that. That’s extremely mature. Well it’s true she replied. 

How amazing can life be if we all felt that way. If we all made people feel that way. It’s the gift of having you here with me that matters. Nothing else. I don’t care about what comes along with it. You being here is enough. 

Beautiful. We all should make people feel like that. Myself included. It taught me a lot in a fast moment. I hope it teaches you something too. 

I Already Have All That I Need

Holidays are a time for people to come back into your life and confuse you a bit. So of course I got a random Happy Thanksgiving from someone who did super shock me. I responded and they kept it short. I was then a little mad about it but the thought it was ok. I already have all that I need in life. Anything else is extra. 

When I explain the situation to family and friends they even had the same reaction as to why they person would reach out. After kindof just slipping away. You have to be at a comfortable place in life mentally to know that situations like this will occur. You have the power to not let it affect you. 

So I replied to everyone “It’s ok I already have all that I need in life. Anything else is extra.”

And it’s true. For me and for you. Look at your life. Look at ALL the good. All of it. Every single positive thing about it.  Sure we all lack a small aspect but why let that small aspect be a focal point?!

Being at peace within means being happy with who you are and what you have and appreciating that you are getting everything you need. 

I came across this article that really was inspiring to read. 

All You Need, You Already Have
