Eggplants, garlic, onions and tomatoes cooked in a little olive oil for my spaghetti noodles. A little less sodium oyster sauce to add flavor.

The kids ate this, in fact they even enjoyed it because they had clean plates after a few minutes.

I don’t think I’d be needing a quick weight loss program if I eat like this. But if I reach for that chocolate bar for dessert…

Happy weekend!

The much anticipated Bench Uncut Denim and Underwear Show caused quite a lot of excitement among those who keep up-to-date with the fashion world, be they people with real fashion sense or just wanna-be fashionistas who try hard to be like those in the first group. There are also those boy-girls who scream their hearts out when they see guys wearing clothes and walking ala-Incredible Hulk. Heh.

Anyway, try Googling Bench+Uncut and you get hundreds of thousands of posts. Some photos here.

I could not imagine how many hours these guys spend at the gym, sweating it up, pumping iron, eating protein-rich food to have those washboard and six pack abs. What? vigrx? Can’t say for sure though since they look well, errr… look full dressed only in their undergarments.

Bench Uncut. There are those who say it means, well, uncut, whatever it is 😀

A small mocha cake, some ready made cake decorations and a little patience and creativity and you’ve got Goldilocks Decorate Your Cake. Woohoo!

This is a wonderful summer activity for the youngsters and the young-at-heart. I totally forgot about this and should have done this with the children during summer vacation.

Warning: not to be done when sitting on outdoor chaise lounges especially when the heat is scorching. You wouldn’t want your Goldilocks Decorate Your Cake to melt under the sun would you?

Tiny apartment with 24 rooms? Impossible you say, but not for Architect Gary Chang who transformed this 344 sq ft apartment into 24 rooms. Watch this closely:

This video is amazing!

For would-be homeowners who are currently having their homes built and painstakingly design (or work with interior designers) the rooms in the house, they can take inspiration from this video before they canvass door knobs, fabrics, tiles and even industrial handles.

Building structures nowadays does not only mean relying on face value. Building structures is now more about having a design that will maximize space and natural lighting among others as well as lessen carbon footprint.

Is your home one that can be considered as such?

The summer heat is so oppressive that eating has not been fun at all. Yeah, I think appetite suppressants will not really work since one’s appetite is lessened during these days.

I am one of those who do not delight in staying in the kitchen to cook. I am not even excited to eat yummy food. I should lose the unwanted weight, right? Wrong. I drink lots of ice-cold sugar-laden fruit juices and soda to quench my thirst. Argh! And now that I’m writing about this, I want halo-halo 😀

Do you give importance to your online profile pictures?

Putting an online profile picture in your favorite social networking site is a must for your friends to “see” you.

Some put photos of themselves which during their teen years and so their friends during that time are able to recognize them pronto.

Some put their best current picture (of course, NOT the one with adult acne, lol).

Some put their blogs or website’s logo which is a good way to promote site traffic.

Online profile pictures are important because these represent who you are.

There are those who wish to remain a “shadow” or mysterious and don’t upload their photos. Their choice of course.

Watch and listen here to know about the importance of your profile pic.
