Projects for the nursery

I realized I never blogged these projects.

My husband and I have been busy decorating the nursery for our baby boy (coming soon!) let's face it, baby everything is expensive now days. I hate Disney or other commercialized kids items and I just don't think a nursery should cost a fortune. So here are some of the furnitures I refurbished and reupholstered. The dresser was done last year as per previous blog. Since, I have found a night stand and a chair both online for under $200 dollars total.

Oru Revisited

I haven't posted for a long time I realized. Being pregnant for 9 months now, going through the ups and downs of taste buds changing, being physically fatigue and etc made it really hard to go out. BUT, I did it.

We went to Oru (Pacific Rim Fairmont Vancouver) for dinner again two weeks ago. After a chef change and a few revamping of the menu these are what Oru has to offer now.



















Oru still has some of that Asian flavor left but with much better plating.

Maybe because I am Asian, whenever I go to high end Asian fusion restaurant I always feel they are over priced. Oru is changing, infusing some of the western cooking techniques into its menu while keeping some of the Asian flavours. On the other hand, aren't most Vancouver restaurant going that route currently?
