Twister Game

It is summer in this part of the world.

Summer means the children are not in school so parents should think of ways to keep the children entertained, occupied and challenged.

One of the games children can play with is the Twister Game. Below is a Twister game being played with my son as one of the players.

This game not only tests their ability to listen and follow instructions but it also tests their flexibility and resistance. It also is a good way to let them think creatively on how they would make themselves more comfortable without breaking their hold on the colored circles πŸ™‚

Fine Dining Means Eating Less While Paying More

Fine dining is something we don’t usually do, especially if we are the ones who will foot the bill. Yes, its that expensive on this side of the planet. Truth is, I would rather try (very hard) cooking food fit for fine-dining and serve these at home πŸ˜€

That is how a miser I am we are (oops, nabuking).

Anyway, here is a photo of a fine dining restaurant’s table, sans the china and silverware:

‘Hence, I am leaving it all up to you to help me come up with a more accurate description.” You wrote this and to that I answer:

fine dining means eating less while paying more πŸ˜‰

So how do we eat these wee things?

Yellow Leaf

Yellow is a wonderful color. It is bright, warm and lively. Yellow is the theme for this week’s Photo Hunt.

Summer is definitely here on this side of the planet. Everyone is saying “it IS hot” and yes, it is very hot and humid.

I definitely miss the “cold” spell we experienced for a few weeks during December till February. Sure a lot of people got sick because of that and taking a bath in the morning (Filipinos take baths everyday, some even twice or thrice a day when the weather is extremely hot) is a real challenge especially to those without a water heater like us.

Yellow leaf, a sign that the weather will turn cold because some trees shed their leaves. Our own version of “autumn”.

I definitely miss the cool weather. I don’t mind if the days look sad because of overcast skies.

I am sure a lot of you out there are welcoming spring with open arms (except maybe those with allergies) so you can take a lot of flower photos πŸ™‚ Have fun!

Big Bang Theory

I love watching Big Bang Theory πŸ™‚

I can totally relate to the characters especially Sheldon because I have met and worked with a lot of (future) Sheldons at work πŸ˜‰

Of course, it may seem funny to those who are not initiated with how it is to live with these people who have issues with pragmatics and semantics

But then, I am glad that there are shows like these to enlighten people, and not ridicule and make fun of the fact that there are other people who are like Sheldon who needs understanding and patience from other people

Fresh Tomatoes

We always have fresh tomatoes at home. Tomatoes are wonderful fruits and there are many ways to use these for the different food that we like to have.

These may be omelet, pasta, ginisang ulam, eaten as side dish or as sandwich filling.

So why did I put these tomatoes instead of a photo of our (a bit cramped) kitchen? Because these are always on the kitchen counter several times a week for our food preparation πŸ™‚

In fact we just had an omelet a while ago for breakfast and you can probably guess what is in it πŸ˜€
