forever young




A lot of celebrities are going through the knife nowadays just to look young because they don't want to exercise at all. Let's face it, It's hard work! But in reality, you need exercise. But let's talk about aging. Yes, that's the number one factor that everybody hates. I'm thinking if aging had an email address, It would receive billions of hate mail every single day. Anti aging creams are sold everywhere but a few are remained to be the best. A lot of expensive creams and lotions are being offered out there but doesn't live up to the expectations of the mass. But you can Check out http://www.oxis.com. Oxis a company where they research and develop new products like therapeutic nutraceutical, cosmeceutical and proprietary formulations and clinical products.

yummy


I love to cook. But I only get to cook once a week when I'm off from work. Last night, we planned on taking the lil rascal to Dave and Buster's today and maybe eat there as well. But I went to the gym this morning and after getting off I drove to Ralphs and brought some cooked frozen shrimp and vegetables. I was dismayed to find out that the shrimp that I bought was so small, I wish I bought Shrimp at Costco which are more bigger. So we cancelled Dave and Buster's and ate a home cooked meal instead.

Here's how I cook this VEGGIES AND SHRIMPS WITH PORK STEW recipe, I apologize for I don't have the exact measurements, It just depends on how big your pot is.

a bag of shrimps
a tray of pork (cubed)
onions (sliced)
garlic (minced)
potatoes (around 2 or 3)
carrots (around 2 or 3)
1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
green beans
oil
pepper
fish sauce
butter
pork and shrimp bouillon (Maggi or Knorr)

I boiled the pork until tender. On the other side, I cooked the shrimp in butter. After the pork is done boiling, I drained the broth and set it aside for the mean time. Then I put the oil, garlic and onions to sautee it for a bit. Added the shrimps, and the rest of the vegetables. Then add the broth and butter. Bring it to a boil. Add in the bouillon cubes, pepper and fish sauce.

Use your best judgment to see if It's ready. enjoy!

Charice's Pyramid




I just found out awhile ago that Charice was the one who sang Pyramid along with Iyaz, pretty awesome if you ask me. She finally has her own album. Hopefully she can go all the way, this is the only start of her dreams. When I first heard this on the radio, I thought it sounded like Jojo, maybe a new artist - didn't expect it to be Charice! Filipinos all around the world are proud of her for following and not stopping to reach her dream. :)

NEW MOON IS HERE!


So we bought the New moon DVD today at Wal-mart. I am quite happy, because It's part of my collection, now I have the second one. :) I'm so happy too because my hubby is a die hard fan of the twilight saga, and He was the one who insisted that we buy it right away today. It's so funny... young girls, moms, elderly people, gays, you name it had a copy in their hands as well as their carts. WOW! The first display was emptied right away and people are working their way on the second display hehehe. We just finished watching the special features, so awesome!

Shutter Island


I totally loved it! 10 stars! Martin Scorsese did a good job with it, he was always one of my favorite directors. :) And for Leo Dicaprio himself, bravo! performance well done! I saw it a few days ago and It was such a breathtaking movie. I think It gave me a splitting headache because it left me thinking at the end. No spoilers here, sorry. I suggest you go out and watch it for yourself. I've never read the book, I almost bought it at Wal-mart, too but I told myself It's best if I watched it. I usually read the books before watching the movies, but It's OK - I didn't care anymore. These are the kinds of movies I enjoy watching. I'm still wondering what movie to watch next. Any suggestions?
