Green Iced Sting Krispy Kreme

The kids were delighted with the green color with hint of bubble gum flavor and mint (white stripes) flavor inspired by the movie  “The Green Hornet” Definitely something new and kid-approved. My kids love it!

The Green Iced Sting Krispy Kreme Doughnuts are only available till February 13, 2010.

Buzz About Bloggers

The Philippine blogosphere was buzzed, still is buzzing about the recent issue hounding and pounding bloggers.

Several issues were hot during the past months and just last week, and now an issue was dropped like a bomb which made everyone scrambling to post a guess who the BBB is. BBB = Big Bad Blogger.

Everyone’s pointing a finger at others who feign ignorance and in turn gives hints on someone else besides herself/himself. I think waterproof binoculars would not be enough to see a clearer picture, especially since bloggers nowadays are treading on murky waters with regards to reputation, bad or good.

Blogging used to be fun. Well, it still is, for me and some bloggers I know. Until the commercial side of writing copy-pasting publishing stuff online got the better of some bloggers.

I for one have benefited from these in some small ways, not in monetary ways but small stuff and freebies sent my way and in exchange for my writing articles about these things.

As I’ve written in a status update in FB, why can’t we just live a passionate life and blog about it OR  blog about things like these and have world peace instead? 🙂

Late Night Movie Dates

Hubby and I have taken to viewing movies or tv series late at night. Yes, we are up till after midnight at time, watching and munching. The other night we watched The Ghost Writer munching on roasted garlic nuts, potato chips and sharing a bottle of Mountain Dew.

No movie tickets to buy, parking fees to pay and gasoline to burn. Sounds good to me.

Of course I don’t need to say that this is not going the way I want especially regarding the waist management. Diet pills that work fast, come to me! LOL

Anyway, The Ghost Writer is a good movie considering I can relate to, not with the plot but with the work. It was at first a bit confusing but as the movie progressed, the plot thickens smoothly. I do write online articles where my name doesn’t appear. Yes, it’s true. There are other articles where my name appears like this trove of wonderful articles site oh no! sadly the site has been closed. Sad, sad, day.

So while this closed, I still have other online writing tasks to finish. In fact I have a pending article right now which I will be doing in a while.
