Doctor, Doctor Am I Sick?

>> Sunday, April 17, 2011

We went to the hospital several days ago for a full-body checkup, I haven't been blogging as I am suffering from symptoms of hypertension *pouts*. I am not really fond of hospitals in general but I do admit that I love the smell of disinfectants and alcohol mixed in the air, the smell is so - clean. Seeing the hospital staff running around in their nursing scrubs makes me wonder how it feels like to be them, to be able to help and heal. Oh, I digress, yet again *grins*, my infer that I do have a high blood pressure is right, it was confirmed by our doctor and I feel gloomy just by hearing it, imagine all the food that I have to give up *lol*, seriously, I just don't like the idea of being sick.

Anyway, I'm not dying or anything, I just have to follow the doctor's orders and everything will be alright. I don't even have to visit the hospital and see my doctor in his scrub clothing that much as a healthy diet and better lifestyle is all I need, and if worse comes to worst, a maintainance drug will help me out. But, I won't let that happen, I plan on being a good patient, I love my son too much to just shrug this circumstance of. So, do expect a healthy and fit me!

I have a question though, it's weird and kind of senseless but please humor me - why are doctors and medical people not called men and women in uniform when they clearly wear uniforms as well. Scrubs are usually worn and seen in hospitals and clinic, it's like their trademark look, just like how the police and firemen have theirs. *Grins*, don't mind me, my mother's yapping behind me so my mind's not working clearly.

Have a blessed Holy Week everyone!

Hola!

>> Friday, March 25, 2011

Hola, I'm your absentee temporary blogger reporting, sorry for being MIA for a couple of weeks, I've been busy. Busy procrastinating *lol*, I kind of, sort of got hooked with another diversion, add it to my duties as a mom and you'll get zero time for blogging; don't get started with the multitasking and time management speech, of course I know that, I just don't put it into practice *grins*. Seriously, the little house we own in the province of Bulacan is undergoing some renovation so a lot of my time was spent discussing the designs with the construction group that we hire, most of the floor and design plans were done so I do breath a little better now, but I'm still thinking about their idea of a Laminate hardwood flooring, what do you think?

Anyway, I'm back and I plan to linger for a while, the owner who call herself Anya keep on nagging me that I am taking her blog for granted, so to get her off my back, I need to work harder or to stick to the routine, at least.

Have you gone swimming yet? My son's still at school, so we're still stuck at home but he did swam with his second cousins a week ago at my aunt's house. Wishing for a happy and yummy summer!

A Nifty Solution

>> Wednesday, March 9, 2011

As a blogger, I need to spend several hours of my time online, to update my blogs and to visit and comment back on those who left love on mine. Unfortunately for a mom like me, that is not easy, personally, I only have time to do my blogging chores and tasks when my kid is busy on his own, so I'm kinda always on a hurry. That being said, you wouldn't hold it against me if I told you that it bugs me to pieces when the blog I am visiting loads slower than a walking tortoise because of all the ads and widgets, right? Or are you experiencing the same and just as miff about it? Well, in my effort to find a solution to this problem, I found Adblock Plus for Google Chrome, it is an extension or plug-in that you can download onto your internet browser, it'll then block most of the ads on the websites that you visit, making the loading time of a page faster, making your net surfing better, with you seeing only the stuff and content that you are searching for. Pretty nifty eh?

Should I Try It?

>> Thursday, February 17, 2011

I have been blogging, on and off, for almost three years now, and I had signed up in a number of advertising platforms since then, some stayed, others faltered, in some I stayed, in other I run away *lol*. A few weeks ago, I received a letter, actually it is more of a note or a pamphlet from one of those advertising companies that I am currently signed with, it is a free pass to promote my blog through search engine marketing, I think it is a month's pass worth a hundred dollars or more. I didn't read it thoroughly as I have no plans in using it, as I've said a million times already, I am no whiz in this blogging business and taking risks in making it in mainstream is kinda far in my mind. I admit, I want to earn a little (who am I kidding, I wanna earn a lot) through writing and blogging but I just don't have the guts to fight with the crowd of professional bloggers that litter the net, I'll just take what I can and be glad with it, but I'm still hoping for bigger crumbs to fall though *grins*.

But I do wonder, am I just a weakling or am I being a coward? They say that opportunity only knock once so we have to grab it, in my case, I think, I have let go a hundred opportunities in this lifetime and some are haunting me, and now that another is coming my way, should I try it or just let it pass?

Love, Weddings and Get Togethers

>> Friday, February 11, 2011

Love is definitely in the air, that is what the month of February and the Day of Hearts do to people and their environment, wherever I look, whatever I watch, it is all about love, relationships, affairs and the in-betweens. The celebrations, preparations, expenses and tricks that a besotted will do to his lover, a husband to his wife, a son/daughter to their parents, among others. Love is in the air and I can't seem to breathe *grins*.

The love month is also a favorite time among couples to say their I dos and pledge their everlasting love, etc. (I'm so tainted, hahaha), and one of those lovesick fools who's taking the plunge is none other than my college bud, she's working in UK as a manager in one of those food chains, she met her soon-to-be husband there but he is a full-pledged Pinoy. She told us a few nights ago, when we meaning most of us college friends) had the chance to do a conference that everything is ready and in order and she's all jittery but excited and oh-so-happy. She was even raving about free venue search brighton which she claimed made her pre-wedding preps easier and she shocked us with the revelation that she's coming home on December and she's tying the knot yet again, with the same guy *grins*, in their province and as all of us should and would be there, it'll be a reunion of sorts for us. We're a group of 11 when we graduated, we started with 5 but our group grew through four years of college, sadly, some drifted away but most of us kept in contact and retain the friendship though we're not that close in proximity anymore, our hearts will always beat for each other. Can't wait to see everyone...

Reunions

Reunions seems to be the hype of 2010 and 2011, classmates in all levels seems to be working together to bring forth a reunion, I haven't attended one yet, ours seems to be one of those batch that's late in picking up the trend but we're on the planning stage at the moment and though I vehemently refused to be part of the forerunners, I am still in the bandwagon, elementary classmates seems to have a greater pull and power, maybe because they have seen and been with me when I am still bare, only me, no illusions of what I wanna be *grins*.

On our last meeting, one of the agenda was deciding on a theme and designing our logo, some offered to create one, others suggested that we ask people who are into and capable in logos designs to make that part of planning easier and hassle-free. We agreed to try both, the first option can save us money though the cons are several in numbers while the second will cost more dent on our budget but then a professional's work is always good choice. We'll find out the outcome on our next meeting, with all of us working together, I'm sure we'll make the best decisions and choices.

Baby Steps

>> Thursday, February 10, 2011

Life hasn't been easy on me these past year up till now, financially, emotionally, physically, it's kinda draining but as I've tried running away already resulting to a one little mess getting humongous, I have no choice but to stand and carry on, but trust me, not because I am standing proud and tall doesn't mean I am okay. People should really learn to read between the lines, I do hope that development happen soon.

Does it seems like I'm talking in gibberish, maybe I am talking in code or something *grins*.

I am looking for online work or any money-earning opportunities available online, you know, to let me have an extra bit of money that I can spend on my son and my self. I even took the plunged and signed up in ODesk, but I haven't really focus on it yet as I'm still not familiar how it works and I have no one to ask for more info. I run across a small job offering about email marketing but as I am still new in this online business, I wouldn't know what to do about it even if I wanted to apply *sigh*. I was brave enough to apply for a translation/writing job but I guess my profile being incomplete and all hinders contractors from hiring me as I received a note last night saying that I wasn't accepted because another person had the position already. Good for the said person, sucks for me... oh life!

Oh well, I'll take one baby step at a time...

I'll Let You In on a Secret

>> Sunday, January 23, 2011

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TABASCO® Original Red. All opinions are 100% mine.


In the last two years of my on and off blogging, I have been very vocal in saying that my family and I love pizza, specially my kid. If the number of posts showcasing different variants and brands of pizza available in our locale is not proof enough, I don't know what is anymore. But through all those mouth-watering entries, I may have forgotten to mention, or I may have not mention it intentionally *grins*, that a certain brand of spice is making our pizza experience go a notch higher. I am talking about TABASCO® Original Red, you may rebut that it is just your usual hot sauce, but I will have to differ then, because it is way better than that, it sorts of unlocks and enhances the flavors of the pizza, whatever kind it might be, giving you a more distinct and appetizing taste, if you haven't tried it yet, don't waste your time and do it, you won't regret it, I swear. And yeah, it works wonders on anything and everything edible, so don't limit your choices, have fun and experiment.


And because the game day is fast approaching, I suggest you visit their website and take a look at the Game-Day Party Menu, you know, to liven up the day and make watching a better experience, imagine, a good show with good food shared with great friends, an awesome combination ain't it? And while you're at it, do give the Pizza Perfected page a look, I bet you'll get tons of ideas on how to amplify your next pizza experience. It won't take much of your time and it's all worth it.

Scrub That!

>> Wednesday, January 5, 2011

Now that my due date is just a few weeks away, though I am not waiting for any popping sound or mind-warping pain or the cliche 'my water broke' tirade that will signal another astonishing moment to womanhood and another keepsake to motherhood, I can't help but reminisce my first time. I had to go through a lot at that time, all first if I may add, first time giving birth, first time having a Cesarean section, first time confinement in a hospital, it was also my first time being naked in front of a number of people, oh the shame *grins*. When I think really hard and long, and I let my self-love take a back seat, nothing mind-blowing happened when I gave birth, of course, the actual birth of my son excluded. But there were funny and memorable moments, my uncle acting like he's the one in need of medical help with his chest paining him and all, my husband acting all calm and cool but deep inside he's in a puddle mess, he was so lost, he didn't realize that my OB-GYN was paging him nonstop to take our baby's first pic, he was out of it, up until my parents came in the hospital, so no birthing pics for us, me asking in the operating/delivery room why doctors also wear nursing scrubs *lol*, and more, but I'd rather not give in all the details *grins*.

Giving birth per se, a CS section on my part, was actually a walk in the park *chuckles*, after the anesthesia took effect, everything was a blur, I'm not unconscious or anything but it felt like I was in a daze of sorts, all I can see were men and women in hospital uniforms talking and moving about, I didn't feel a thing, if being mark with a pen in my tummy counts, then be my guest as it's the only thing I can brag about, though it's not really a pen and they're not marking my tummy *grins*. Before, I knew it, my ever dearest OB-GYN was happily saying that it's a strong, cutie little boy with my son's loud cries as the background music to that melodramatic scene, it would have been if my life is a drama, thank God it isn't. Yeah, yeah, I'm all about wit and sarcasm today.

Not that all these telltales matter, it all went well, with me as a new mommy, hubby as a new daddy, my parents as the new grandparents, and my bro and his sis having a new nephew. I stayed in the hospital for 4 days, if I had known that being a mom is this hard, I would have taken my time lounging in the hospital bed with hospital personnel in scrub clothing doing everything for me, if I only knew then what I know now *grins*. I think, I'm gonna do better this time around.

Oooh, my baby just did a somersault...

The New Year and Absences

>> Saturday, December 11, 2010

Hi guys, I've been out of the circulation yet again, well, you can blame it to my hormonal imbalances *grins* and of course, to my son's most-awaited Holiday/vacation. Another thing, it's now my giving birth month, so blogging as well as moving, is kinda getting harder. I just thought of posting something before full-time motherhood calls me back, and to greet everyone a Happy and Blessed New Year!

By the way, have I told you that I'm going to have a baby girl, yes I would *doing the happy dance*, not that I love my son less, it's just that I can practice all my artistic and fashion ideas now that I'll be having my own doll and model, can you feel my excitement? I was, actually, tinkering with an editing software these past few days, as I try to come out with a logo that I can use in my baby's dedication, I want it pretty and coordinated. I want a specific logo that will work as a visual and an all around theme of the event, I think that it is pretty nifty and one of a kind. It's kinda hard to explain it in details but I swear it's awesome in my mind, you just have to trust me *chuckles*.

I wish artistry and capability in graphic design runs in my blood, life would have been so much easier but what I lack in aesthetic capacity, I can cover with maternal love *grins*, and I can always go for a Logo Designers, there are some free and crafty ones that circulate the net, when all hope is gone. I still have a lot of time in my hands though, I'm scheduled to have a CS procedure on the 4th week of January, so I can still play the DIY momma for a while *beams*.

Oh, I will try to upload and post all my stock photos to clean my laptop, so expect a blast of entries from me, well, as long as laziness doesn't kick in.

Again, sorry for being an absentee blogger, I hope you all still love me nonetheless...

Newegg This Christmas

>> Friday, December 10, 2010

A few more days to go and it's Christmas, and though I love this season the most, I also feel wariness as the highest expenses our household have is during this festive season, not to mention, my son's birthday is celebrated at the same time the world celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, so double or triple the fun and loss of money for us *lol*. Seriously though, aside from the influx of stress, traffic, parties and number of friends and acquaintances, an influx in budget deficits is also acquired at this time, with all the extra food that we have to cook, extra ingredients and groceries that we have to buy, Christmas decors and paraphernalia, new clothes for the kids and sometimes for the kids at heart, gifts, lots and lots of gifts for everyone on the yearly Christmas list, our finances tend to go disarray, I'm not a money mongrel or something but at this time and age, being a little thrifty is almost a way of life, if you care to live long, with an erratic economy, everyone should be lucid and wise.

We can't just frown and let the season pass us by though, it's the season to be happy so spending is but necessary but staying in budget or saving a few dollars won't hurt either right? In a way being techie and/or internet savvy has its perks, like finding out ways to save some moolah through Newegg coupons, imagine having the same products but in a price that is a bit more wallet-friendly. I know I would love that, in a world where material things matter, as much as we may not want to admit it, having stuff and saving some money at the same time is a great deal. Finding various Newegg promo codes is technically easy, all you have to do is surf the site and browse through the number of promos and coupons available and voila, you're one step closer to that much-wanted purchase. I know that sales, price cuts and discounts are not that rare, but I kind of think that during this season, business owners tend to cling to that season of giving hullabaloo that's why they give out more *grins*.

I still have a long way to go before I can finish my Christmas list, I don't have much time but aside from some financial incapabilities, trudging in the sweat-reeked mall and traffic-infested roads made me more distant of shopping, aaah, I think, I had become an introvert. Anyway, I still have the Newegg promo code to back me up, so all is not lost. Online shopping here I come.

And Here's My Pick

>> Saturday, November 20, 2010

*** This is a sponsored post.


Christmas is just around the corner and for housewives, like me, it is time to list down the name of stuff we want added in our kitchen, dining room or living room. We work at home, serving our family, we don't expect any 13 month pay or holiday bonus because we are not paid to work *grins* but a little courtesy from our husbands is enough to make our heart flutter and our stomach churn in excitement. In layman's term, we love gifts that we can use to make our home-making life easier aside from the personal one that you give us as Christmas presents.

And as I am waiting for this season to come for almost a year now *lol*, I already know what I want and I am prepared to do some haggling with the hubby so I can get it. As I spent most of my time lurking in the online world, I tend to search around a lot and thank heavens for that as I've found my preferred gift that way. If you're on the look out for small kitchen appliances, cookwares, baking paraphernalia, hard-to-find ingredients, I suggest you try food network, it's a one-stop online shop for housewives and cooking enthusiasts.

Curious as to what I want for myself? Hmm, shall I tell you? Well, I am not really picky so I have my eye on a really simple one, it is a set of non-stick cookware in orange, I love that color, it is lively and bright, it usually uplift my not-so-happy-mood; it is made of porcelain enamel from Rachel Ray's collection. Aren't those pots and pans lovely?

Life's Short Notice

>> Monday, September 20, 2010

I know that this is a food blog, but for a moment let me discuss one of my woes as a mom - we, both hubby and I, were fortunate to be born in a middle-class family, giving us the freedom to eat, buy, spend and have stuff that we need and sometimes, even things that are consider as luxury. We don't have a parade of cars and servants or mansions and palaces as our home but we lived a fairly decent and rich life, and as a mom, that is one of my dream for my kid. Those who have been following this blog know that I am a stay-at-home mom with nothing on my sleeves but random blogging, my husband is the sole breadwinner in our family and though he earns a good amount of money, with the debt we incurred when we chose to build our dream house plus the monthly amortization for our car and credit cards, together with the ever-ballooning amount in our utility bills, sometimes, just sometimes, his salary doesn't seem to be enough. That's why I am thinking of having a short term insurance as a precautionary measure, we can still make it work now, but I'm not really sure about the future. I may be thinking too much, but I guess, being a parent teach us to be like that.

As much as we want to control all the experiences and happenings in our life, it is inevitable that we face something out of the ordinary and something that we are not betting on, so being ahead is always a good choice, don't you think?

Lights and Blinds

For a woman who's just starting to love the art and science of cooking, a nice and efficient kitchen is necessary, going for a perfect one spells trouble, so like always, I only go for the minimal ones. My kitchen is not that big but it is spacious enough to move and work around; it is not as modern as I want it to be but I have worthy and useful appliances and gadgets; it is not as pretty as I would want it to be but it has its own charm, it's basically a kitchen that works for me.

One of the basics of a befitting kitchen in my book is one that has clear and adequate lighting as it makes cooking and other food preps easy on my semi-working eyes. Though electricity-induced lighting is okay, I still believe that lights emitted by the sun is the best thus my craving for a bigger window in our kitchen. I would love to have a glass-slide window that can light up my whole kitchen in the morning, enabling me to save on electricity and giving me that vibrant feel. I would then, put on some Cheap Roman Blinds to counter its brightness during its peak on afternoons and to silhouette the place at night. Ain't that bad for a dream, right?

If only we can snap our fingers and all our wishes can come true...

This Blogger's Dream

I just recently got back into blogging, I have been away, hiding under a huge boulder for a number of months but, I guess, blogging is already a part of my system because try as I might to stay away, the lure is just too great to decline *grins*. Before I had my hiatus and went into hiding, I was already toying with the idea of having my own domain name, imagine a kutsara at tinidor dot com, wouldn't that be great? But, as I decided to be a lazy bum, all ideas and dreams were put into a halt *sad face*. But as dreams are recurring hopes, here I am again, dreaming of windows web hosting, having one for this blog will be so cool, you can put me into cryo anytime you want *lol*.

If only I had done it when I had the money to do so, I earned a little through some online gigs and when I got the chance, I should have invested it to my domain and hosting but as I am the queen of procrastination and a shopaholic at heart, I shelved the idea and spent the money on something unnecessary, am I a lost case or what? Anyway, as I am back, this time with a little bit more of self-control and willpower, I plan to make my dream a reality. I'll work hard to earn and save some money to buy myself a dot com to my name, my target time is the first month of 2011, giving me ample time to save and do research. Fighting!

Foodie Address Book

>> Sunday, September 19, 2010

One of the perks of being a food blogger is that you have a sort of license to eat out as much as you can, of course time, health and money are all put into consideration, too *grins*. But as a blogger, I kinda have the power to decide on where and what to eat whenever we go out, it's true that I don't hold as much power as my son but at least I'm second in command and these past few months, my son's appetite and taste has been expanding, he's now in a stage where he tends to try out stuff including new and used-to-be-taboo food on his list, so, yeah, life's easy these days.

As a food blogger, I tried to be as adventurous and as up-to-date in terms of new places to dine in and new dishes and offerings on various restaurants' menus, but sometimes, though I make it a point to sample something different each time I go out or order take outs with my family, there are just days that I crave for food that I already had or recently tasted. Its during those times that I really wish for restaurant business cards on dining establishments, simple but oh-so-worthy pieces of paper that can come in handy whenever I or any member of my family crave for something to munch on or gobble up. Imagine having a stack of restaurant business cards and making an address book out of it, I bet it would be a foodie's delight.

Do all foodies think alike?

I'm Just Sayin'

>> Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Howdy! I haven't been updating this blog lately due to some health issues, nope, I'm not dying or anything, it's just that years of maltreating my body (and old age, I guess) has taken its toll, I'm kinda trying to regain my composure and, hopefully, my health before I do some routine blogging again. My eyesight hasn't been that cooperative either, I guess, that long-shelved plan to purchase a pair of eyeglasses will now come into fruition, by hook or by crook *grins*. Don't we all just wish that we are all eternally young and beautiful, oh well, I do.

Anyway, I haven't done any food photography lately, though there were opportunities, I'm just not that into it (read: enthusiastic enough) these past few days. Well, I sure will continue to eat and explore food varieties so other opportunities will inevitably come. It seems like non-blogging activity for more than a week hinder my thoughts and creative juices (as if *grins*) from flowing, uhm, what else can I tell you without dwelling on specifics? *after a very, very long pause*, Gawd, I have been staring at the monitor for hours without any success in constructing even a single sentence, I think, I'll just surrender and let it be for the moment.

Will I see you when I get back?

A Kitchen Dream

>> Thursday, February 18, 2010

I have been very vocal about my regret in not investing on kitchen and dining equipments and utensils when I was still able to, when money was ready to be spent for my every whim, when our finances was still stable, when we're still free of debts and responsibilities. How I wish I can turn back time...

One of my dream is to put up an enclume pot rack in my kitchen, I really think that it would add that homey and aesthetic appeal that I so want to achieve. I have seen classic movies with kitchen designs like that, pot hanging and clinging while an entire family is happily preparing their dinner, I even envy those restaurants that have that as part of their interior design. I wonder when I can get a hold of such and be done with one dream. Don't get me wrong though, I don't want enclume pot racks just because of the allure it will add to my kitchen, I will lie if I tell you that it's not my main and foremost reason in desiring it but aside from that I'm sure it will also aid in ridding my humble kitchen of its clutter. Just thinking about it makes me happy, I just can imagine if it's the real deal already.

Enclume potracks has this comtemporary and timeless appeal to it which will make any homemaker beam with happiness and pride, as my kitchen is on a silver/gray motiff, I decided that if and when I get the chance to buy one, I'll get the chrome-plated variety. I'm still undecided on what design and built I'll take but it will most likely depend on what hubby and I will agreed upon and its corresponding price, of course. Anyway, as money is something that we don't have a luxury of at the moment, I think I have ample of time to browse their website and pick the best one for me. Hmm, I wonder what would it be...

A Mother's Heritage

>> Wednesday, February 17, 2010

*** This is a sponsored post.


We went to hubby's ancestral house (that's where he grew up and these days, any house built in the 80s or so is considered ancestral, right?) to celebrate his mom's birthday, my mother-in-law passed away 10 years ago, back then hubby and I were just a year into our relationship, but her family never seize to celebrate her birthday. It wasn't grand or anything, we just had lunch and dinner together and some sort of pica-pica in between, sis-in-law was the one who cooked and prepared the food and she did a great job, in case you wanna know. It was just your usual Sunday family gathering until my father-in-law brought down an old attache case from the masters bedroom, it's full of old silver and gold coins plus some really old bills. My husband never told me that his mom was a coin collector, her collection won't compare to those of professional collectors but just the same, the stuff that she had left behind are really valuable. None of her children, not even my father-in-law, follow on her footsteps, I guess, none of them have the talent, resource or time to do so, or it's just not their cup of tea, altogether. But we sure had lots of fun reminiscing where and when a coin was purchased or who gave it as a gift or how their mom got to have a hold on it, those sort of things, we almost build an entire day of conversation on that coin collection alone.


Truth, my curiosity was really picked, so I look online and I found out that collecting gold, silver and other metal coins and bars is a good investment and more and more people are getting into it. But buying gold is not as easy as it sounds, a person has to have adequate knowledge about it and because a huge amount of capital is on the line, one must really be careful on how to proceed. I found a site - Goldline International, Inc. - that assists investors and collectors on their endeavors by offering a full range of precious metals like silver and gold, in your choice of coins and bars, aside from that they also offer numismatic coins which is very in demand with collectors worldwide and they have been in business since 1960, I think years of existence in the trade won't be possible if they're not trustworthy. Under them, even safe storage and delivery won't be a problem as they offer a storage program and a direct insured delivery. I think it is a positive investment opportunity, if you have the money.

Celebrate Valentines, Celebrate Life

>> Friday, February 12, 2010

Two days more and the world will celebrate the day of hearts, singles of date will reminisce their heartaches and will feel more neglected and sad, lovers on the other hand will paint the town red and will allow themselves to wear their hearts on their sleeves even for a day. I know that life isn't really fair, but who said it has to be February 14 for you to celebrate love and relationships, if you're dateless now, and you find love next month, then celebrate Valentines next month, no one will prevent you from doing so. Here's a thought, just be happy that you have the ability to see and witness the celebration, be happy that you are a celebrant of life, you may not have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, a wife or a husband, a lover, a beau, or in any other names they come because I'll bet my life that somewhere someone loves you, you may not know it yet or you're just too preoccupied to see it but I am sure somebody in this lifetime will love you for no other reason than you are you.

As for me, I don't really celebrate Valentines day with all the ruffles and shuffles, I just stay home and take it as one of those days, I guess motherhood makes a woman different. I don't expect flowers or chocolates or any gifts but if hubby obliged I would be very happy, of course! But then again I hope he won't spend a penny this coming Sunday on something unpractical or unnecessary, as we are preparing to step up and do some business, frugality is of the essence, we're thinking of plunging in option trading, I heard profits are stellar. Anyway, who need gifts when you have a good and happy life. Better than celebrating Valentines why don't we all celebrate life! Have a good one people!

I am a wife to the sweetest person on Earth and a mother to the cutest baby boy in the planet. I love reading literary books but I have an addiction in contemporary/renaissance romance novels. I am a video game aficionado in the truest sense of the word. I love to travel the world, if and only given the opportunity. I don't know how to cook (but I'm slowly learning) so there's a fascination with take-outs and dine-ins. I could go on and on but I guess you had enough *lol*.
