If my favorite reads of 2007 were food…

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

If my favorite reads of 2007 were food, they would taste this way… ~*~ Quiver by Stephanie Spinner Quiver would be a platter of olives and camembert cheese. In the beginning, you would wince at the saltiness and hate pitting the olives yourself. Gradually, the natural flavor of the olives will grow on you, and [...]


Twilight Talk: A little bit of movie news

Monday, January 21st, 2008

1. They’re shooting in Oregon. And shooting begins end-February. That’s almost a month from now! 2. They’re shooting part of the movie in Kalama High School. I thought they were going to use the actual Forks High School, the same school Bella goes to in the book. Perhaps they’ll still shoot there for establishment shots, [...]


Weekend Soiree #5: A game of comment interaction

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

The rules are easy. I will ask a question. The first person who comments will answer my question, and will leave a question for the next person to answer. This next person will answer that question, and leave a question for the next next person to answer. I am sure you get it! To make [...]


Lunching at Windows Cafe

Friday, January 18th, 2008

We had our heart set on tuna and salmon sashimi, but when we passed by a restaurant offering Corned Beef Sinigang, all the cravings for Japanese food were put aside. H & I made ourselves comfortable at Windows Cafe, enjoying the calming ambiance as we placed our orders. The menu promised many tasty dishes, and [...]


The internet thrives on generosity

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

“The internet thrives on the generosity of people,” my friend Peachy said. Interesting thought. Look at YouTube. Wikipedia. Flickr. Blogs. Photobucket. Pandora. Myspace. Facebook. b5media blogs and the like. Widget creations. Scrabulous. These sites and applications flourish because of people who are willing to share their work, their art, their thoughts, their time. While not [...]

It’s another blog called I LOVE

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

I’ve got this other blog called “The I LOVE Blog” over at Blogspot. It’s the blog I write in when some topics don’t fit here or in Happy Nest. I like to compartmentalize like that. It’s full of random stuff like how I love Bobby Lee, striped socks, berries, my Dream Glow Pooh. Stuff I [...]


Dried mangoes + Chocolates = Nancy Drew

Monday, January 14th, 2008

“The Secret of the Old Clock” from the Nancy Drew series was the first young adult book I read. This is THE that book got me hooked on reading. It was the first time I experienced not wanting to go to bed because the next chapter looked more interesting than the previous one. It was [...]


Chalk these out!

Monday, January 14th, 2008

Aren’t these Chalkboard Vases so cute? The chalkboard surface of the vase allows you to make it all your own. You can brighten up a room with flowers AND your art! How would you personalize your vase? Would you accent it with sweet nothings? Doodles of the day? I’d probably write “Water me everyday!” because [...]
