Sa May Bentilador

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Isa na yata ang bentilador sa pinakamahalagang kasama tuwing tag-init. Masyado mahal ang kuryenteng babayaran kapag panay ang gamit ng aircon, at masakit naman sa braso kapag panay pamaypay ka buong araw. Salamat at may nag-imbento ng bentilador!
The electric fan is one of the most precious companions during the summer. Using the A/C can skyrocket [...]

Ah, the union of two big loves of mine: IKEA and The Sims 2. Perfection.
I almost jumped up and down in my seat when I saw the announcement. Okay, I did jump up and down. The excitement cannot be contained! More furniture! More decor! More style and sophistication for my virtual dollhouse!

Monday, May 5th, 2008

This won’t be a post of people caught in the act (though that would be interesting), but of objects and trinkets that are not what they seem. *insert Twilight zone music* Can you guess what these items are?

Done with your guessing?


Holy Hot Dog Toaster!

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

There are many ways to cook a hotdog: Fry it. Grill it. Spear it with a stick and roast it. Boil it. Broil it. What about go toast it?
I would love to have this Hot Dog Toaster in my kitchen. You can toast both the buns and the hot dogs at the same time. Saves [...]


Homer Simpson guards your remote

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

Who better to spend couch potato moments with than Homer Simpson? He’s got a box of donuts and Duff beer right beside him too!
This remote control holder even talks when you press your remote. One line goes, “Oh maybe TV is right, TV is always right.” Ah, Homer. You’re definitely the best guardian for our [...]


Finger-lickin’ substitute

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

One of the best parts of baking? Licking leftover batter off your finger! Yum. Have you ever dipped your finger in the bowl’s leftover batter and feast on it? It was one of my favorite moments when my Mom and Grandmother would bake for us kids. It was the highlight of the baking process (next [...]

Chopping Boards for the Organized

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

It’s best not to mix chopping boards for certain ingredients to avoid cross-contamination. These Index Chopping Boards from the MoMa Store make it so much easier for cooks then — especially overly organized ones! I love that the boards even have their own filing unit.
Best for workaholics who love to cook.

10 things to get your guests talking

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Conversation pieces don’t have to be huge paintings or unique sculptures. Traditionally, that’s what they are – a group of great artwork that triggers people to talk. Today, it can be anything interesting enough to trigger a conversation. It could be a quirky rug or an awesome entertainment center. Here are ten objects that I [...]
