Today, I am going to share what I bought last Friday for a black Friday shopping which I have found at Bath and Body Works store nearby. An American Grown fresh hand soap. I love its smell because it is very refreshing and it is perfect for our kitchen. It has nothing says summer like fresh-cut Meyer lemons from Florida. Sweeter than other lemons, they are plump, smooth-skinned and an unmistakable dark yellow. This is the best, as I love lemon scents. It smells just like a fresh lemon, but a tiny bit sweeter. Plus, you can only use a little bit, and it is already soapy which I like because then I can able to last it that long.

Now they were on sale at Bath and Body Works!

Favorite Fruits

>> Sunday, November 29, 2009


It's time for my Seven Sunday meme and this week's topic is: Name your seven favorite fruits.

When it comes to eating fruits, I always love to make choices. There are some certain times, when I feel like to eat fruits that I never ate before. It is just so weird, but for all time, here are my seven favorite fruits.

1. Atis ( Sugar Apple) - The atis fruit has a scaly skin. The fruit is almost round and about 10 cm wide. It is called a 'sugar apple'. The taste of the flesh of the ripe fruit is slightly sweet and soft. The many black pips are scattered through the flesh of the atis.

2. Peach - a fruit that bears an edible juicy taste.

3. Rambutan - according to wikipedia: the fruit is a round to oval drupe 3–6 cm (rarely to 8 cm) tall and 3-4 cm broad, borne in a loose pendant cluster of 10-20 together. The leathery skin is reddish (rarely orange or yellow), and covered with fleshy pliable spines, hence the name rambutan, derived from the Malay word rambut which means hairs. The fruit flesh is translucent, whitish or very pale pink, with a sweet, mildly acidic flavour.

4. Pineapple -
the common name for an edible tropical plant and also its fruit.

5. Lansones- a small bearing fruit,but it taste really sweet. It is the common name Filipinos have given to the fruit of the plant, Lansium domesticum (scientific name). This plant is cultivated in tropical climates in Southeast Asia, South America and India. Oh, I miss eating this fruit!

6. Mangoes - Who doesn't love mangoes, especially the ripe ones called Manila and Alfonso. I loved it!

7. Last but not the least, Papaya or
Tree Melon. The papaya is a short-lived, fast-growing, woody, large herb to 10 or 12 feet in height. It generally branches only when injured. All parts contain latex. The hollow green or deep purple trunk is straight and cylindrical with prominent leaf scars. Its diameter may be from 2 or 3 inches to over a foot at the base.

How to Greet?

On this week's Snackie Sunday question is: HOW DO YOU NORMALLY GREET PEOPLE?

~ Well, I usually say, “Hi, how are you?" and they just say they were good and asked back. But sometimes, they are the ones who asked me how I am doing, and then I would replied, "Doing good" and asked them the same question. Usually it happens when I go to store and the cashier would ask me.
If I am with family, I usually asked how they were doing with an embrace. My husband’s family always embraces each other or hugs each other before and after goodbyes which takes me a while to get used to it. I don’t know but I guess, it was just a part of their family culture. As for me, it was a good thing because touching someone sometimes makes a big difference.

Turkey, Lights, Change, and Invention

It's Friday and it is time for Four For Friday meme! Thank goodness I am done shopping!

Q1 - Turkey: If you had to pick the biggest business, political, or celebrity turkey of 2009, who would it be and why?

~ The biggest business turkey of 2009 would have to be cash for clunkers. This clunker of a strategy actually did nothing it was supposed to do. Foreign auto companies benefited a lot from it, and American jobs were neither saved nor created.

Q2 - Lights: If someone driving toward you has his car's high beam lights on when you feel they shouldn't be on, do you ignore it or do you flash your lights in an attempt to get him to turn them off?

~ Well, it's not easy to ignore high beams searing in my eyes, but I never flash my own lights at someone on the road. What I do when someone is coming at me with high beams is keep my eyes on the shoulder of the road so I can still see where I'm going until they pass. Especially if we're on a dark lonely country road at 1:00 AM, with no other traffic around, and high corn fields on either side of us. The last thing I would want to do in this situation is flash my lights and risk making some hick town local named Buckshot Billy angry at me.

Q3 - Change: When you pay for an item at a store and the amount due comes to something and change (e.g., $5.47), do you attempt to pay the exact amount (i.e. do you dig around in your purse or pockets to find the 47 cents), or do you simply pay with bills and pocket the change for later on? If you're not the kind to pay with exact change, how do you feel about the people in front of you who do?

~ I am the type to dig for exact change, and what's more, I get agitated when I don't have it and have to break a bill. My husband is the complete opposite. In fact, he never even carries cash, or change. He pays for everything with a card. He says it's faster. He is funny when we are together and I pay for something in exact change, and I can tell he is getting restless, wondering if we will ever leave.

Q4 - Invention: If you could invent something that hasn't been invented yet, what would you invent?

~ If I could, I would invent a car that drives itself. It would have a built in GPS, that I would just type in where to go, and the car would do the rest. I wouldn't even need a driver's license. I could just sit back, relax and talk to the other people in the car all along the way. Plus, this would eliminate the need for auto insurance companies, because if computers are driving all our cars, then accidents would be rare, because computers will follow all the rules of the road. In fact, the entire road system could be computerized, so if a car does break down or malfunction, a main server computer could be alerted by a signal from the car's computer, and in turn notify all other cars in the area of the hazard ahead.
