It’s just too tempting to raid the pantry for junk food. I’m starving! I don’t know why, but I had another round of my smoked “tawilis” at about 2:00 p.m. today yet, I’m hungry again. It’s already 6:35 p.m., and I won’t have dinner til 9:00. You know, that’s the usual time for us.
My tawilis […]

It’s been 4 years ago. Yes, it’s been that long since we visited the United Kingdom, but that experience is still vividly remembered. I remember that early morning when we landed at the Gatwick Airport, I was still so groggy from that 7 hours flight from New York.

We didn’t have that much time though, as […]

Recel handed me down this award. I’m just so flattered, I don’t know what to say. This is the second time I’m getting this award, that’s why.
Being gracious, is the best response, right? Thank you, thank you very much, Recel. I know I’m not a techie, but I do try my best and work around […]

That vacation to Aruba last September, I must say, was really very relaxing. I’m saying this, because sometimes there are other destinations we visit and for some reason, we wind up needing a vacation after that vacation. My husband and I agree that we have immensely enjoyed all of the Caribbean vacations we’ve taken […]

Call me weird, but earlier today when I felt hunger pangs at about 4:00 p.m. instead of going for any usual snack treat, I went for guess what?
Rice and dried fish. Yes, that was my snack. Call it yuck but I loved it. This pack of Philippine made dried fish (frozen tawilis) has been […]

What is it about casino that people get hooked into it? Is it the excitement and the thrill of winning?
Well, as far as I’m concerned, I think it’s the thrill and anticipation of winning that keeps me going whenever I go to a casino. I know of someone though, that has been a casino lover. […]

Flounder and string beans, that is. This is what we had for dinner last night.

I was excited to dig in because, I didn’t cook for a little more than a week. Nothing beats the taste of home cooked meal. Was it delish? Sure it was. I haven’t had fish also for that long. I’m a […]

Three years ago, we moved to our new apartment. I still remember vividly in my memory, the mixed emotions of excitement , angst and frustration in between as the renovation was going on. We gutted the whole place that’s why, and dealing with the contractor wasn’t that easy. The whole re-do took about four months.
I […]

I thought I was just seeing things. I thought it was just my imagination. I couldn’t believe it, this blog is now PR 4. How and why? I don’t know. After a little more than three months of posting in this journal, I really honestly don’t know what I did to get ranked 4 from […]

In this life, there’s a lot of uncertainties. We’re fine today, the next month, but definitely we don’t know when lightning strikes.
During times of emergency, and we are in need of cash, after we already dipped into what we have available and yet we still need more, what and where do we run to? Gone […]
