Oranges and Melons

Christmas is fast approaching and my bestfriend and I were going through stuff online for possible christmas gifts. We see lots of really nice stuff but we wanna go to an online store that has everything on it, especially sports items for our hubbies and toys for the kids, has a secure online payment system and convenience in terms of shipping of course.

We were talking through chat and she stumbled upon ShopWiki, the online store is not as fabolous as the other stores around but they have everything we need, the best part is if you are having a hard time choosing a gift they actually have a gift guide for you to read, What me and my bessy loves is that if you browse through the pages, you can see buying guides to help you choose the correct size, style etc. as well as best selling products that you can check out for reference.

We would definitely our spread the news especially to my parents, friends and relatives on this great shopping experience. And as for my bessy, well, she indulged and went ahead to shop online, she even bought me a cool pink sweater and 2 of my favorite books at that, and it’s not even christmas yet.

1) What book has most touched your soul?
**  Chicken Soup for the Working Mom’s Soul
2) How do you think being a teenager today is different from when you were a teenager?
** There are lots of areas of difference and are many to mention, but just to give an example…in our time a teenagers doesn’t talk back to their parents and has high respect to their parents but nowadays even a 9 year old can talk back without fear.
3) If you found out for sure there was no afterlife at all, would you change how you live your life?
** No, I would live the same way but there might be some things to change.
4) What is the biggest regret of your life so far?
** None so far
5) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.

** reminds me of nature, of being out there to explore the wonders of life.

It is almost 2009 and there could never be any perfect time to buy planners or journals than the month of November especially if you are thinking of giving it away as a gift this christmas. I was bloghopping when I saw this really nice Belle De Jour Power Planner, I even commented on a bloggers website on where to get it but unfortunately, she did not mind on replying but anyway, I was able to  manage and find it from another nice blogger that has a link from her site going to the power planners site so I checked it out and found out that it is not that expensive and the pages itself are very nice, it is packed with everything a busy woman needs, to organize her time, it has a dream board, a health checker, notepad, extra space to jot down stuff, a goals page and all that; pretty neat actually. I understand we are all on the Blackberry, P900, IPhones and what not techie age but of course not all gets to have those nifty stuff, so the basic planner is always as useful as it is. The price is just ok, it contains discount cards and other coupons as well tha you can use on some shops. So if you are still thinking on what the best gift for your bessy, sis, mom or whoever, go check out their site and get that Power Planner.

1. Between breakfast, lunch or dinner, which meal are you most likely to skip on a typical day?
*** breakfast…hubby and I are not breakfast eaters, we just have coffee and thats it, though sometimes we do eat breakfast…but we make sure our little one has his.

2. Do you prefer a hot breakfast, like oatmeal, or a cold breakfast, like cereal?
*** hot breakfast..like eggs, bacon, toast..oatmeal is ok but I’m not much of a fan, though hubby is

3. When you’re in the mood for a big breakfast, what do you typically crave?
*** bacon, home-made pancakes, sunny side up eggs…sometimes garlic bread, coffee or orange juice.

4. Take the quiz: What kind of muffin are you?
*** You Are a Blueberry Muffin

You are a nurturing, domestic, homey person.
Of all the types, you are the most likely to make your own muffins at home.You don’t like to rock the boat, and you’re most content when you’re making everyone else happy.
You are very loyal. You’ll defend your family and friends, even if you secretly disapprove of what they’re doing.

You tend to be a bit shy and withdrawn. You don’t make friends quickly or easily.
But once you do make a good friend, the chances are high that you’ll be friends for life.

5. What are you more likely to cook for yourself for breakfast if you’re alone: a stack of pancakes, a waffle, or grits?
*** Pancakes, if not home made theres those easy to cook ones, and we usually do have pancake syrup at home and some nice butter…so there.

6. What’s your favorite beverage to drink with your breakfast?
*** coffee…nothing beats coffee

Twing Bagong Taon, aming kinagisnan na maghanda ng mga pagkain na bilog kahit na yung 12 prutas na bilog. Hindi kami masyado naghahanda pag pasko, mas gusto namin na maghanda para sa media noche. Yan ang kinagisnan naming mag-asawa.

{ During New Year, we always prepare food that are round and sweet, even the 12 round fruits are has always been tradition even to other families. We don’t usually prepare much during Christmas, we usually celebrate New Year more.}
