Karaoke Singing
Dec 30th 2009greenbucksAround the Metro
I have written about how to go about reunions and keeping the conversation going with relatives to avoid being in an awkward position or have a conversation lull.
This goes the same with elementary and high school reunions, if I may say so. Yes, you and your classmates can’t possibly talk about how fat you were when you were in third grade or how someone else looked awkward wearing his/her Christmas program costume, much as you can’t possibly talk endlessly about your children or insurance quotes or your golf handicap unless they seem genuinely interested.
What do you do then? Sing. Yes, sing and have fun bashing the karaoke 😀
(Just make sure you don’t disturb the neighbors too much though)

Indoor Fitness Program
Dec 23rd 2009greenbucksThoughts & Urban Living & Visualizations
Hubby said one time that perhaps we might be needing a treadmill (or other fitness equipment like a rowing machine) at home just in case the weather doesn’t permit me to go out and have my morning share of on-again and off-again fitness regimen. He might be right and the presence of one would not excuse me even if I woke up late 😀
I so need to go back to my early morning routine because the cool days haven’t been kind to me and my resolve to be fit: walking up late and doing a bit of tasting those baked goodies I have been baking does not make me a thinner person 🙁
Oh well, after the Christmas season, as we all say. Sigh.

Last month, I blogged about Kraft Eden cheese and the goal to cook 5,000 dishes to top India for the Guinness world record for the most number of dishes cooked.
And they did! 5,845 dishes cooked with cheese, woohoo! So we show the world that we Filipinos are cheesy, huh?
Check the Kraft Eden YUMM Sarap ng Buhay site for some cooking ideas and if you want to contribute a recipe. Mine is the cheesy turon 🙂
Now I am off to read about NC health insurance as a favor for a friend 😉
Oh by the way, do we have FF next Friday?
Tuna Steak

Tuna steak marinated in soy sauce, ground pepper, lemon juice, dried rosemary and oyster sauce, served with fried egg over steaming rice.
Perfect for a late night breakfast dinner.
A combo of these things with a variation with the tuna steak is something I prepare for hubby whenever he gets home late from work.
I am not fond nights when he gets home late because I fear for his safety. Plus I have to think of ways to get rid of dark circles under my eyes the next day 😀
