Guilty MAX drink? Naaa


If you read the label, you already know.
Yes, I like to add EXTRA something to my drink.

This time, EX Caramel.
It is IN SANENESS!
The extra caramel sauce on the ice comes down later.

JUST REMEMBER,

I ordered "TALL" size not GRANDE. ( I am so proud myself. )

Although when I order Passion Tea Lemonade ( with EXTRA lemonade, sweetened ), I do order Venti. It's a TEA, right? or should I say that's lemonade...
Anyways, I really like to taste the flavor that's why I add extra something.
If I really want good coffee, I add a shot.
See? I don't just have a sweet tooth.

It may add extra calories but I really don't calculate calories.
I always order my latte with whole milk or soy because I care "TASTE" than calories.
Chai Tea with Soy? It is very good.

No Guilt. I just enjoy my moment.

MUST WATCH

image from Amazon.com

I like Ben Stiller. I think he is FUNNY although almost every time I see him, I see his father in him.
This movie is HYSTERICAL and painful at the same time.
Have you ever watched his "Duplex"? This movie is NOT that painful though.

Jennifer Aniston, I think she is naturally beautiful.
I love her makeup. I like her taste.
She was so cute in this movie.
I liked her movie "Marley and Me" and I really loved that movie.
Q, How can she keep her body shape???

I did not expect to laugh that much but I did LAUGH so much.
This movie is one of those "MUST WATCH" "MUST OWN" movie.

I just realized... Ben stiller does have scenes in the bathroom in many of his movie.
There's something about Mary, Meet the Parents,

I don't own this movie, but I will get it soon.

Ben Stiller's "Little Fockers" will be release in Dec 2010.

Black, Knee-High

image from style.com

A Picture above is from Jill Stuart Fall 2010 Ready-to-wear collection.
A lot of brand have BLACK and KNEE-HIGH in their fall collection.

Since I love black, I should go get some more.
Knee-High boots? not a big fan. Not so wearable to play-room or park.
Although if you are really into Fashion, you may wear them to loco grocery store.
Go for it!

I still need to hold my son at times so I don't wear heals.
If I do wear them, my son will be in danger!
I'm not Angelina Jolie who holds a big boy and walks confidently.
In real life, I need flats or sneakers so I can run with my child.
In 5 years, I will be able to enjoy heels again... until then, I wull stick with flats.
So maybe black clothing and flat boots in this fall... for ME.

I'd been looking for "NAVY" nail polish for a while.
This color is not really NANY but more like dark blue. It has blue glitters in it.
Yes, I like this color.
I put 2 coats and top coat is necessary.

As other dark colors, It is not easy to apply or remove.
It stains my nails slightly so I need to use extra remover to get rid of it.

If you don't mind doing it, this is a great color.
I like it.

I'm thinking.... which color should I get next?
Green?
Dark Red?
Brown?

My nails are always short.
So pastel colors don't look so good on my nails...

Well, I'm going to start shopping now!

Pho Love


Some people HATE Cilantro.
I use to dislike it, but some how I like it now.

I love Thai Food, Vietnamese...
Pho is one of my favorite dish. I must have them once a while.
I think the soup is the key. Is it just chicken stock? It's so good.
This restaurant I go serves fresh vegetables for their Pho every time I order.
Never Dry, Never Old. The soup is always HOT.

My child likes to eat at home so I do take out.
Not much waiting time for Pho takeout. GREAT.

This restaurant doesn't use MSG, so I feel better.

I like to put everything in the soup.
Lots of Basil. MUST have LIME in it. It makes much better.
I have Thai Basil in my pot which is not growing thick... I hope they grow bigger.
I can't wait to use my Thai Basil with eggplant.
And I can put more basil in my Pho as well.

Being a Mom

Hi,

My son got fever of 102.7 today.
He has fever since yesterday and nurse call adviced me to take him to ER tomorrow...

This is the 3rd ER visit with my son. My son is almost 2 but still 2 and he has gone to ER 3times!
1st time, he got a cut on his eyebrows area.
2nd time, he got a cut in his mouth.
People may feel like he is overprotected if they see how my husband and I treat my son.
But still those things happen. I use a cart seat for him at the store, I wipe his hands, but he is still getting sick. Children are like that. As a mom, it's so sad to see my baby suffers but I can't be crying for him, I MUST fix him. Mom doesn't have much time to whine about things, hahahaha.

My son is sleeping now... so it makes me calmer.
Hope he feels better tomorrow.

Spicy Stir Fry


When I have many vegetables I want to use soon, I make stir fry.

Many people think "Stir Fry is NOT healthy.
Maybe because they ate some greasy ones.
Stir Fry can be very LIGHT and HEALTHY.
Because, I only use 1 Table Spoon of Oil. That's all.
The key is to use Teflon Pan. This Pan doesn't stick your food to your pan so you don't need to use much oil. You may want to use this pan on Mid-High heat so you don't break the coating. If you prefer WOK, you may need more oil but still, you don't need much.

< Spicy Stir Fry >

1 Red Bell Pepper
1 Onion
1 Yellow Squash
1 Carrots
2 stalks Celery
2 Green Onions

1 Table Spoon Canola Oil

3 Table Spoons Sweet Chili Sauce
2 Table Spoons Oyster Sauce
S&P

The ingredients are simple.
But sure they are tasty!
