Blogging is for losers?

Hey guys have you read the latest buzz on yahoo about a 13 year old blogger who is also a fashion designer from the suburbs of Chicago? Reading about her story reminds me of one scene from NCIS show that we watched. One of the cheer leader girls there said that "Blogging is just for losers" it stunned me when I heard that because I don't think she really understand the concept of blogging. But anyhow, back to the topic, here is Tavi Gevinson a successful blogger.

What will be your reaction if someone told you that you are a loser because you blog?

The Mini Road Trip

Hello there folks, how's your Monday going? I apologized fro not visiting you fr a couple of days because after our mini road trip to Daegu, my dysmenorrhea was so bad. But anyhow, I am feeling better now. We did not stay very long in Daegu, we just shop a little bit after we sent the money then we ate at BK.
These photos were taken on the way to Daegu.
I love taking pictures of the rice field because it reminds me of my childhood.
Going home, my husband dropped by at the Commisary to get something. We decided to just wait for him in the car because if we do, we might see things that we don't need and might go on unplanned spending again hehehe.
Showing his orniness.
My son loved this set of sword so much that even if it is a little bit expensive we bought it for him. Dad said that he seldom ask for something so he got this one. Of course my daughter has to get one too, a barbie. Haizzzz its hard to go on a store with kids, you can be an impulsive buyer sometimes.
These are taken on the way home, the view of the city of Jinhae.
My son immediately wanted his toy assembled so Dad helped him. Can you believe this little set of toys cost 25 bucks. for me that's ridiculously expensive. But it makes our son happy so its worth it I guess.
He carry the sword everywhere he goes, even in his sleep hehehe.

Green Beans Adobo

I made adobong sitaw (green beans) yesterday. My cute helpers wanted to help me but I was in a hurry to cook so I just let them clean the dishes.

See how deligent worker they are lol..

I just wish that they would still do it when they grow up hehehe.

You might ask why the amount of the food I cook is very little, I do that so we could eat whatever I cook. I get tired of putting left over in the refrigerator hehehe. The recipe calls for string beans but since we don't have that here, i just use the regular green beans. The main method in preparing or cooking this is trough sautee. You have to sautee garlic, onion, tomatoes and meat first then put some soy sauce and a little black pepper. Then when the meat is tender, you can put the green beans. I want the beans a little crunchy so I don't over cook it.

My son said "I wan't to help Mom" so I let him stir the grean beans adobo, that's what makes it very tasty, the love and willingness to help of my lil' chef.

Tip: Put a dash of honey into your adobo to give it an interesting twist. It tasted so good and my hubsnad loved it!

Alrighty, for those left over hunters, sorry there's none lol..

Treasured Pictures

Hi there folks, it is Friday once again, another exciting entry for Mommy MOments. The theme for this week is treasured pictures. This is why I am a little bit late for my entry because I have a hard time figuring out which photos should I post. Actually all the pictures that I took is a treasure to me but unfortunately I have to pick the most meaningful ones. Here are my entries.

This is the only picture I have of my parents when they were still dating. Who do you think I look like. The folks from our place say that I look exactly like Mama.

I love this picture of hubby and Rylie, look so sweet!

Rylie's sweet bonding wit Pap Pooch!

Reading time with Mommy and Daddy

My husband is probably going to kill me with tickles (I am ticklish) when he sees this hahaha. The guy on the left side is John. I think the name of their band was Grafitti.

This is a photo of John's Dad and Mom with his sister Crystal and her daughter Jen. The ornery looking boy is my husband, now you know why EJ is very ornery lol.


I Love this photo because it is one of those moments where my husband and two lil' ones are bonding together. This was taken last year's July 4th celebration when we watched the fireworks display in KOrea.


A peaceful bonding. Now they are like cat and dog hahaha, always growling at each other.

Taken at the hospital when I gave birth to EJ.

Just having fun with Mommy's silly joke hehehe..

My first time experiencing Winter time.

Alrighty folks, thanks a lot for peeking at my entry!
