My Not-so-Secret Wish

I got me a not-so-secret wish to have a new camera. I’m in no hurry to get one because:

a. my P&S cameras are working out fine and I’m thinking that if I wish hard enough one of them might not function full well, like the newer one that is not taking good photos these days 🙁

b. I got me no budget for newer and more expensive one

As it is, one of the two cameras is not functioning well right now in terms of taking good quality photos and it is being used just for taking video much like camcorders. It’s frustrating of course, knowing I can’t take those super zoomed photos for now.

But I am patient. I believe I am so I will wait for the right opportunity to have one, when I can afford to.

Ho-Ho-Holiday with Krispy Kreme

We love Krispy Kreme!

Though the original glazed doughnut is STILL the favorite, we love to have those fancy seasonal doughnuts.

Krispy Kreme

With Christmas just a few weeks from now, we are excited to have Krispy Kreme snowman back on our plates and palate. But wait there’s more! Two special Krispy Kreme doughnuts are now available to share with family and friends: vanilla-frosted square-shaped doughnuts decked with green and red icing ribbons and classic Krispy Kreme ring doughnuts topped with red and green candy sprinkles.

Of course, Snowman is making a comeback and I’m sure many missed him 🙂

Alkaline Water

Alkaline water is said to help flush away the body’s toxins.

I’m not entirely sure if this is the same as colon cleansing diet or those holiday binging inspired 5 or 7 Day cleansing diets.

We have been drinking alkaline water for months now and I must say that, gross it may be, our pee has increased and smells real bad. If these are toxins being flushed out, then I certainly don’t mind the smell at all if this will help keep us healthy.

Ah, Men

Virility and machismo are two big words that men take to heart. There are still those who think these are reduced when they are seen doing house chores like doing the dishes and cleaning the house, never mind if their wives are dead tired like them or is on about to give birth.

Some would, at the slightest problems, readily have natural male enhancement pills without the benefit of a doctor’s advice because knowing what’s wrong is not an alternative even if they have not been feeling well.

What are some of the characteristics of men which make them “brothers” aside from the real and/or imagined virility and machismo thoughts?

  • They would hem and haw if they are asked to see a doctor.
  • They refused to wear pastel colored clothes.
  • They think crying in public makes them less a man.
  • They would laugh at (married) men doing house chores because they are “under the saya

These are just some of the men characteristics that women find either amusing or annoying, depending on what their relationship is with them.
