I love collecting post cards. Be it as international views, local or anywhere as it is friendly and heartily given to me or I bought it are sure thing special. I also love to give (of course) as vice versa to those folks gave, and also to friends and relatives. I just wish they would love what I got for I give it with my heart and smile altogether. :-) For some reason, it is already some kind of hard to get some post cards nowadays especially if the store is located far from where I stay or where one's place of vacation interest. Good thing, we already have now choices of where to buy, not just only in store field as traditional way but online services like postcard printing service, which are just in a click of our computer mouse. Don't you think computer helps us in our day to day living as such like this? Ooh yeah, again, we have now choices. Aside from postcard, I can then too have some mailing services should I like to have my mail look more beautiful. With only printing, we just only have to select where we can find the high quality ones should we like to get those. Now, I can get on those without chasing where I can buy those. Thanks to technology, thanks to computer, I have now a choice. :-)

This was what I planned to cook lately. It was apparently a food trip. I craved for it, then I got it! *wink* Okay, the title speaks for itself, the name of my dish lately. Actually, I cooked for two meals so I still have one for dinner with hubby's outside order tilapia fish later. It was an intention to have a "soupy" one though usually folks cook it otherwise unless it is intended for soup purposes. It is my choice since I like to eat with soup on it even it is a sauteed type.

Yours truly had the fun cooking at it. It turned out what I wanted to, not half-cook or overcooked but in between. A fully cooked one though I did something in the sink as I simmer it, thankfully it did not turned overcooked. I put beef flavor bouillon (this time the one on the bottle not the usual bar type, it is of the same taste though) on it. Bouillon is my cooking close ingredient when I do not like to cut any meat. Ha! :-) Though bouillon has already the ingredients needed, I still brown garlic, onion and two colors of bell peppers with vegetable oil.

For some reason, several people like rustic furniture and bedroom furniture is not excluded with that. I, myself saw different style and colors aside from its shapes and I love to have it! I have to give credit to wood craft for that. Stores like Scenic Furniture which sells and maintain its quality should have to be mentioned too for without it, it would not known to many, and folks and eventually have a reliable store to choose from like selling a bedroom furniture. As what I have seen in Scenic Furniture store, there are array of choices they have. And it has inexpensive ones too for your kids which is available from just less than 300 bucks, should you like there is also a very nice-looking wood queen long bed and top sized bed to pamper you while doing your snoring. ;-)
As I said you have a lot of choices from inexpensive ones to the very high quality ones. One thing I do not like about wooden beds if the crafting seems crowded to my senses. On the other hand, they did a great job for their selections which you can see are top-of-the-edge ones. What I like more with wooden stuffs, it brings coolness on the surroundings and you have choices of cool designs.

A person who wish or already own a car and wish to drive it, should have a car insurance. In general term (especially to those civilized or concerned places or countries), car insurance is a must. Hence, car insurance is in demand especially here in United States of A. It is a must or else you are in trouble even if you haven't gone into car accident, one cannot drive without it. It is a need, not a want though some countries, it is just fine. As I said, not common as long as a person has a driver's license and it is already up to the driver to get it if they want it but that is no good. Car accident is uncertain so one should have to think in advance the "what-ifs" and be prepared. And car insurance is an answer for that. Think about it aside from an insurance of a car is a basic need of a driver. It would ease the bulk amount if accident happen (God forbid!).

One fine afternoon, I was with my friend. We talked, ate, laughed, giggled and all the fun wan do, we did. She is a very good friend of mine and we can talk anything under the roof without any doubt one will be hurt. In short, we enjoy each other company and we love each other as a friend. Many said, we are like close relative, a sister that is. I hope we are. Anyway, and the talk continued. For some reason we bumped into slimming conversation. We talked about the past. Reminiscing the good and the bad. Let go of the bad and continue the great ones. Since we talk about slimming idea, she said her ex-sister-in-law (ex because her close family circle and her were already divorced) is already slim and she hoped in some way to be like what the lady has now. I just then browsed after I got home and told her the next day if she like to visit  and see what she can come up since she is planning to have some slimming pills as long as she can see the pros and cons then she can compare it with others she knew with her other friends. And then the journey continue. I hope her all the best and what is good with her body is taking slimming pills is okay with her. May she get what she wanted, not directly but she deserves to have as what had told. :-) She deserves the best!

These baby shrimps in a jar below which produced as known as "shrimps paste" is light in color unlike as what I used to have ever since. I bought this in 168 Supermarket (yes, supermarket as grocery goods). One woman blogger friend told me that in her place, the 168 Supermarket is a dry goods store but in my place where I am now it is a grocery store. Ooh well, perhaps the same store name or owner name but he/she just let it manage but other person and decided to let it be a dry goods in her place. One name of two or more different goods sold.
There you go. You can see the picture without flash (the first and second picture) and with flash (the third one). I bought this more than two weeks ago and put in refrigerator but I was super loaded and my bitter melon (or "ampalaya") did not last for long (normally) so I have to wait for days or a week so I can open it and saute it with it. Or I can fry it alone with tomatoes, onion and garlic. Mm. ;-) It is good as appetizer or with rice with any drinks should you choose other than water. By the way, you can enlarge images by clicking it should you like it larger. :-) Have a great day!

Basically, most women handle the shopping job. Either we like it or not we have to! Well, doing shopping is stressful but nevertheless, the end thing is we are happy and contented when our family has enough foods to eat and needed in the kitchen. We are also happy when we have good clothing. Well basic ones are the most important--not so particular with a lot of designs or "in" thing but what comfortable to wear, well bonus points to those who work a lot or can afford to buy those--they deserve it. For some women having a good lingerie is not important but lo and behold because that is the most important piece a person should need to have, for me. What do you think? Can you afford to have a good comfortable dress but deep inside there's something wrong or in the middle of special occasion you are uneasy because of it? How do you feel with that? ;-) Do you think it's fair? I hope you all the best. Oops! I love shopping especially if it is on-sale (or discounts and alike)! ~hugs&kisses~

You may not like it but it is more than I like, as in I love eating vegetables! Am not a vegetarian since I also eat meat. It is just that I was brought up eating vegetables, it is his/her (blind item to protect the person) taste, or whatever which trigger his/her something when eating such. Just like mixed vegetables with coconut milk "ginataang-gulay" cuisine. Some told as vegetables are just only for cows, carabao or any other animal eating grass. As I heard someone said it (actually close relative but was not brought-up eating vegetables), it hurt at first but then I heads up! Yes, I just said unto myself "I don't care!". Ha ha ha! Well, folks are different that is why we are unique in our own way. Though it is taught in the school that eating this would make us healthy but still some folks won't like it. Hem. Whatever! Kiver (expression)! Ha ha ha.
Usual foods together with this cuisine is salty foods as in fried, dried and salted fishes, or any kind of meat. With what I ate last week was with dried fish. I broiled it so no oil as coconut milk has oil with it, naturally from coconut. Sometimes folks I also like eating it with fried dried fish. Then paired with juice drink or any soft drinks like sprite, seven-up, coke or alike.

It's eating time!

There are many folks (if not all) who are overweight tend to go for diet pills as aid. They maybe frustrated for not getting their desired weight of just exercise as a way. And so they go to the next process to which as I said, planning to take diet pills, aside from the fact that they want to lose weight in no time. Do you think weight-loss pills may help you with that? You may not know it, should you try and give your best, maybe. Sometimes we have this urge of getting what we like directly, no more waiting as we could afford it and gathered the facts which would not affect our body generally. There are many folks there had their honest reviews (or someone close you know) garnered what they wanted, their super wish body figure. Check it out, should you like. I hope you all the best and on your journey of losing weight. Good luck and God bless.

Step daughter Racky (her nickname) gave her Daddy and I a humble wonderful gifts and it arrived days ago. It is just now that I managed to put it in here. Diary, keep it in memory. I guess she does not know I am managing three blogs but then I presume it won't matter with her. Even so, it is no biggie deal. Speaking of the main attraction here, well, her wonderful gifts, she gave me girl stuffs from "bath and body works" which comprises of fragrant cherry blossoms lotion, body wash and anti-bacterial deep cleansing hand gel. Her dad got from her a electronic shave and a set of body spray. That is sweet of her.

I guess such present is an advance Christmas gifts sine her greeting card is "Merry Christmas" , well, if that so, it is also a perfect timing for Donald and I's anniversary on this month. On her greeting card, she puts her new address in there. I have marked it black as it is classified. 

That is her in the picture above. She now resides in New York to continue her schooling for nursing for third year and soon enough she will be on her fourth year. She is a smart one. She was crowned as Miss Jamaica-Florida and sent us her pics from the pageant. Thank you Racky!

Okay, this pictures was more than two weeks already in my inbox. Well, it is for whenever I crave of it. Ha ha ha! Oops yep, kidding aside but seriously. Sweet potato tops are not common in our favorite (with DH, actually it's DH favorite then later on it became my fave then too). So in short, it is hard for me to get this just as usual. Not until I found out there is in our farmer's market which opens every morning up to one o'lock "post meridian" (until 1:00 p.m.). That was just only weeks ago I found it. And so the "veges-whore" of me then bought and make it a salad. Images below are my sweet potato salad (left) and its, sweet potato vinaigrette.
sweet potato saladpotato salad vinaigrette
What I did was that I (1) get the leaves of the sweet potato after it were washed. Then (2) boil a water, once it boiled I put the fresh raw sweet potato leaves. I then (3) put it on its vinaigrette. Yum-mm! And done. Oops how to make its vinaigrette? I just put the spices, namely: tomato, scallions, onion, bell pepper (in lieu of ginger, I was out of ginger so I put fresh bell pepper instead of it). Then have a dash of salt and vinegar. That's it! As easy as 1-2-3! Yum-mm!

Would you like being an opposite of younger-looking you? Of course not, right? But let us face the fact that once age growing high, the possibility is we tend to have wrinkles and that is not bad because that is the process or evolution. It will just turn into physically mature-looking one, physically old. And it is unpleasing personality, you bet. You can see it at your surroundings as you are the witness. Would you bet people who are wrinkle-free uses wrinkle creams? Hem-mm. That is not impossible because many folks already uses it. It is just a matter of financial ability and belief. Either way would ease the problem of the solution you ever want. So why not try if you like as long as you gathered all the facts and possibilities, right? Should you like, it would make you a younger-looking one. Get the best! I hope you all what you wanted. Good luck and have a good one. :-)

Just leaving something before I am heading off to church for a Sunday five o'clock afternoon mass for today. As I can remember, Sunday eleven morning mass is my favorite time hearing the words of God through the bible. Though I was not used to go an 11 a.m. mass as while I was still back in country home but surprisingly I easily adopted it here. And now, for two times in a row, I like more attending this afternoon (going night time) mass. Why? It was because there is a pretty young girl's voice band. Nope, I am not in church just for that but it brings more great ambiance. Yep, not because of the four-seasons banana cake below which is my favorite. ;-) It just feels like a sort of. :)

I bought that yummy foodies above so I do not know how to make it but surely it is yum-o! Signing-off now. I leave that sweet deliciously cook foodies above. I have to prepare myself for such an important and great Sunday celebration -- bonding with God and great folks. Ciao for that banana cakes! ;-) Happy Sunday (or Monday to other parts of the globe) all! :-) ~hugs&kisses~

That maybe hard but not difficult that difficult as you may think because there are many solutions out there just like RV loans, refinancing your RV and many more. Name it and you can have it but being just sure one has something to pay for its obligations, right? But anyway, just saying. I know you will not get a loan without any running income to pay in the future. One can tell of why you are having such RV and just have some financial problems for the meantime but good enough to pay it right. Talking about that, you may now have an option or go directly to where it is if you feel like it. See for yourself and quit worrying about your-about-to-postponed road trip. Happy trip then, enjoy and have an extra are! ;-)

Okay, I heard you. You are right a bag to use for travel is called "traveling bag". Haha! Isn't it that awesome when we have a bag suits to what we want? I mean, who do not want a convertible rolling briefcase like that below? Alright I leave that to you what your answer with that, but for sure one want to have a rolling stuff when there will a hike to be done just like in an airport walking distance going to give the ticket or travel documents to the service crew for clearing, isn't it? How much more if it is made up of genuine leather one. Yes, it is surely expensive but the quality would last for years. Ooh well, the traveler's life is definitely fun.
Keep going, just remember that "a journey of thousand miles begins with a single step". Get the best travel bag which suits of what you feel comfortable and feel good while you are traveling. I hope you all the best. ;-)

(Guest post compliments of Amy Miller)
My son Andrew is now three years old. The internet has been an invaluable tool that has aided in his reading skills and language development. Andrew was slow to speak, but he is beginning to pronounce most of his words correctly.

We have Hughes net internet in bozeman mo, and I bought Andrew a computer last Christmas when he was two years old. I started by introducing him to family-friendly TV shows that I enjoyed when I was a kid. He watches those old shows on via his computer. The word games that Andrew plays on websites like WordWorld have aroused his interest in words and reading. He also enjoys watching kids' videos and sing-along videos on YouTube. He laughs and sings along with the videos and even tries to repeat new words he's learned online.

The computer I bought for him is called a net-book, and it was only $300. It is his new favorite toy. I monitor what he watches using satellite internet Montana, of course. I feel that he's getting a jump start on learning. He already knows the alphabet and how to spell basic words by sight reading them. I recommend that any parent invest in a computer as a learning tool for their child.

Hi folks, how are you today? I bet everything's doing well and that is great! Just get into the happy journey albeit of the trials we experience every now and then. The sufferings are just spices in life so we would know how to appreciate what we have. Just like this sweet potato pie below. It needs to bake it good and mix well. Its ingredients should all gathered together prior to preparing or putting it in a pan. It should have to be like that or else you cannot taste the sweet potato pie you wanted to.

Oops! Am I serious enough? Just currently wanted to eat some sweet potato pie and then off to go to the post office. I have something to mail, return that is. Ah.. sweet potato, I want you now badly. Wanted! ;-) How do you like your taste bud to try something you do not like or you crave for? How do you spoil your craving? Err... I have to go now. See yah later potato pie. :)

You must be kidding me but most (if not all) overweight folks wants that. But how to get into it? Would it be quick weight lose program is the answer to that problem? Perhaps it could or it might not. All you have to do is listen to experts and on your own body activity, movement and how it responds to the past just like to what its ingredients have. I am no expert regarding this but it might help you in general. Oops, it is easy to gain weight but it is hard to loss if gone overweight. It might be unfair but just like what life is sometimes and we just have to embrace it, get the best quick weight loss and alike. As it has been said that life runs pretty fast, if do not stop and glance once in a while we could miss the whole thing. So be sure you will not miss the big advantage or opportunity once it is already at the tip on your hand. ;-) Imagine the possibility. ;-)

Boohoo! It was just a minute ago which Netherlands and Spain FIFA teams were having championship game ended. The game had its overtime and extra time. Normally, a game only lasted for 45+45 minutes equals to 90 minutes and when no team scores it would have its overtime for 30 minutes which would turn the game to 120 minutes. If no team scores that time, penalty kicks would do the scoring but lo and behold Spain scored of approximately116 minutes! And so the game continued. It has its extra time of two minutes and then crowd cheering already, yes Spain team was proclaimed as 2010 FIFA Champion! How cool is that? It was a tough game because the score is only one which is apparently Spain got it at the neck of time. So how are you feeling there? ;-) You have got the feel the magic or should I say the intensity and the skills of the players with its technique as well as its luck. Oops, can you say it is luck? It is their skill, isn't it? *wink* Have you seen one Netherlands player got mad at the referee? Bouncing the ball and cursing? Ah! It must be disappointment, frustration or something like that. You know what you thought at watching it. Hem-mm. There must be many crying over it? Whatever it is, I would just like to congratulate the winning team. Congratulation Spain for grabbing the title! The winners must take it all. Ha! ;-)
