The best things of the fall season

One of my most favorite seasons is actually fall.  There are so many wonderful things about it.  I made a list for you of the reasons why I think the fall season is absolutely wonderful.


In no particular order:


  • The return of my favorite television shows are back! 
  • It's sweater weather but living in Southern California, this cooler weather actually comes in the third week of October
  • Pumpkin pie, especially the ones from Sam's Club
  • Candy Corn 
  • Enjoying that extra hour of sleep
  • Christmas music on the radio
  • Start of the holiday season
  • Sales are everywhere during this time of the year
  • Cute and adorable women's boots 
  • Fall decorations of cute pumpkins, turkeys, lots of oranges and browns 
  • The best drama films come out during this time of the year
  • Baking season at my house starts in the fall.  My mom tends to cook more using the oven when the weather is much cooler
  • Fall and winter clothes are more elegant to wear
  • It rains once in a while during this time of the year
  • People are in a more giving mood therefore much nicer 
  • My birthday is in this season! 
  • Seeing the hillsides turn green.  In Southern California, the weather is so hot during the summer time that the hillsides are very dry and when the weather cools down, patches of green start to pop out
Even though the end of the calendar year is almost over, autumn is still a wonderful time of the year to embrace and cherish.

May this time of the year bring you wonderful treats, love, and warmth.

Stay warm, 

Mayra :)

New Year's Eve Hispanic Traditions

I seriously believe that every culture has some very interesting ways of welcoming the New Year.  I grew up in a Mexican household in the United States, so I got the best of both worlds. I do have to say, that we have some every fun and creative ways to welcome the New Year: 

Seeing the light

I'm sure you've heard of stories about other people having near death experiences they encounter when they find themselves in very dangerous situations.  I was watching a program as part of the Super Soul Sunday series of comedian Tracy Morgan talk about the accident that almost took his life about a year and half ago which happened on his drive home after doing a comedy show.  He talks about seeing his deceased father coming to him and telling him that he wasn't ready for him yet.  It made me think of my near death experience I had in high school. 

Unanswered Prayers: Explained

When I was younger and naive, I used to pray a lot for the things I wanted and needed in my life.  A few years ago, I met a guy from an online dating site who I was certain he was the one for me. Over the years, I never truly understood why God didn't answer my prayers -- until now. It was very apparent to me that as this guy and I both grew up and live completely different lives; I noticed an overarching theme in his life where in the end, he has no inner peace in his life.  The drama in his life is still there as it was when I first met him many years ago but appear to be present in different ways.
