Seeing The Pioneer Woman’s cookbook, and always hanging out at her blog, makes me think that maybe it’s about time I learned how to cook. See, I don’t cook. But she really makes me want to. If someone gets me her cookbook, I swear I will make all of the recipes in it at least once. Promise. I’ve already done her cinnamon rolls more than once and that turned out awesome. But first thing’s first, someone get me that cookbook! Checkout this wonderful sorta review by Bakerella on the wonderful awesome cookbook.

short lesson on Pilipino contemporary culture.Nosebleed is a term that is used to pertain to situations where one finds him/herself racking his/her brains to seek comprehension. Does that make sense? In other words, nosebleed situations are those that make you think really really hard. Also, this is used when you just can’t seem to understand something.Looking around the Internet, some people believe that it was popularized by a Pinoy movie a few years back where the lead character uses the term whenever she has to speak to someone in English.

For the past three weeks, we have been hooked on this game, and this song has become one of our favorites from the playlist: Since I started with my current account a year ago, I’ve only taken advantage of the availability of Xbox 360s on the floor a few times. I tried Halo, but that isn’t really for me. I just couldn’t shoot that well. I tried Viva Piñata too. I liked it, but didn’t get to play too much because our agents would rather borrow other games (like UFC). Then there was Guitar Hero. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. It was like the day would not be complete without   read more

have so many photos to edit, and to share, and many stories I’d like to tell. There’s also the boyfriend’s blog that also needs updating. My Photo blog, and the new photography blog that I haven’t even started cooking up. Yet today, I’ll sidetrack all of those projects to post about FERC.It would be best if you viewed the videos prepared by its members, because they own this story, and they are sharing it with everyone. Once upon a time, we were part of this congregation too, since we attended Church there while we lived in Fairview. My parents still sometimes go out there.I   read more

We’re now entering the fourth week of our own edition of The Biggest Loser at work.It started out with 10 contenders. We’re down to eight. By the end of this week (Week 5), we’ll be cutting off two more.I’m afraid that I might actually be one of the two. Haha. I didn’t weigh in at all last week, which isn’t such a big deal because it was a non-elimination week anyway, but that meant I also had no idea of whether I lost additional weight, or gained back the three pounds I lost previously.Which wouldn’t be much of a surprise really. After all, I have not done any exercise,   read more

If this was last year’s Halloween image, this year it’s this: Hanna (top right) bagged the prize for scariest makeup, but everyone was a winner.AJ kept us all laughing the entire evening.Next year’s party is going to be a lot tougher. Though the two older girls Shanti and Butchik were partying with us, they are not even in this photo because they didn’t want to dress up anymore. Jomar was out with his dad. The neighbors aren’t around because they also attended the same birthday party that Jomar went to. The kids are growing up. We don’t know if they’d still want to   read more

As I was trying to find an inspiration for a post, I decided to pay the TDD blog a visit and I wasn’t disappointed.There was a post there by Katie, the Scrapbook Lady, sharing how she does her roundups. I am already envisioning how I can do this every month. It will give me a topic for a blog post, but also a way to save info for future layouts (if I ever really get back to digiscrapbooking!).A October roundup would be my test run. I don’t think I’ll be posting much photos though, but we’ll see. I’ll do the actual roundup tomorrow, after the Halloween Party here at home. I   read more

absolutely loved this flick!Reminds me of Amelie, in the way the story was told.By the time we went to see it, I was already sooooo sleepy. Having gone straight from my 1AM shift to Makati on some business right after lunch time, and then finally to meet Vanette around 630PM at The Gateway my energy was really tapering down. But as soon as the movie started, sleeping was out of the question.The soundtrack is awesome too! And you can listen to it over here.It’s   read more
