Velvet Apple

Mabolo or Velvet apple seems to be a rare fruit these days.

Mabolo tastes like apple, only softer and fleshier.I remember eating this as a child because our neighbor had a tree and under it was a bench where we (my neighbor friends and I) could sit and eat mabolo.

Beauty or Brains?

Like the beauty pageant question that gets asked all the time:  “Would you rather be beautiful or smart?” I think most would rather answer they’d rather be smart than beautiful. Not only is this the logical choice for the shot of winning the title but this is what is expected as the answer.

Of course, when you are smart and you get to earn a lot, you can have your physical beauty enhanced, harharhar. And those unsightly bulges, hair here and there, chest acne and other ewwwness can now be removed without a trace.

For the Record, I’m Not…

I was asked last night if I am pregnant. Ugh. For the record. I am NOT.

It is as if I could hear a chant saying: fat burners! fat burners!

Am I hurt? Of course I am but then again, if I have been more conscious not only about my looks but also about how much I eat (not too much really) and WHAT I eat then I wouldn’t be asked that question.

It doesn’t help that I eat when I am a bit stressed. And watching something. And reading a book. 😀

Google Driverless Car

Google’s driverless car has gotten a lot of attention the world over. I for one would like to see it, with James Bond in my mind, wheee!

Who wouldn’t get excited to see this? Ok, some people are wondering out loud if this car is “legal” enough to drive (Q: who’s driving, it IS driverless) on the road or if it even merit a car insurance quote.

Would flying cars be next like the ones in The Jetsons?
