Recipe for a Fab Party!

My sister just had a fabulous 40th bday party at blue leaf last friday with over 250 guests. and it wouldnt be as fabulous if it weren't for K. cunanan catering!  if you want to pull of a great party, K. is the best person to call. because she just gives you anything you want from food to table design and the aura of the place I personally had the chance to visit her at her own home where she works most of the time for clients that  visit for food tasting. and can i tell you the food was indeed delectable. my checklist for my wedding is already 1 down. and for the cake? although we didnt get the chance to order from her ahead of time, i know for a fact that Joy San Gabriel is really good with cakes.. i guess im 2 down already haha..great party, sa uulitin :)

I want a new tattoo!!

Ive been dying to get a new tattoo and i wanna put it somewhere where i wont regret it. i have 3 tattoos and had my first one was when i was 14.. so you could just imagine how dumb the design is. it doesn't even have a meaning its just for the sake of having one. I'd like to have it on the side of my body where my arm rests.. just like where megan Fox put hers.. 


In having a tattoo, black is the best ink to use because colored tattoos fade and you have to retouch it. mine even faded and the one on my nape is already messed up. On my nape it says IXOYE which means Jesus Christ God savior son, and on my back theres an eye which means absolutely nothing. and the BDG initials of my dad and the day he died :)

  
For my 4th id like it to be 1 Corinthians 13 in full Geek language.. but i guess i wont have the chance to get a new one.. of course Ivan has to approve first, and since he doesnt, i guess i just have to stick to what i have. 

Movie: due date

If you like the movie Hang over then i think you'll like "due date" because both movies have the same director and the humor is absurd in a very hilarious way! you'll surely laugh your ass off! but the real reason why we watched it yesterday was because of Robert Downey Jr.. Ivan and i are both big fans of him and he's the reason why we named our Chow Chow "Sherlock" from the movie Sherlock Holmes.


 Robert Downey is inappropriately hot for me. he's not too good looking like a Ken doll but his over all appeal and his personality made a distinctive name in hollywood and his Sarcastic humorous deliveries while remaining completely stone faced is his trademark.. i had the biggest crush on him when i was 5 or 6 maybe when i watched the movie "chances are".. very sweet romantic movie.. i hope he makes more movies and not return to his drug addict days.. i hope he's done with that phase in his life already :)

Focaccia (fort strip)

When i crave, i crave so bad that i just have to eat that food the same time i craved it or else ill be grumpy the whole day. lucky me i have an awesome boyfriend who willingly grants my bidding. the Rolled up Pizza  at Focaccia restaurant is something i pine for once in a while. We discovered it when we were walking around Fort Strip and noticed a new restaurant beside Go Nuts Donuts. (theres also one in A-venue). because of our Love for food we decided to try it.. the paper thin pizza rolled up with Arugula and Alfalfa was the best and we left the restaurant with a satisfied tummy :)

 Arugula itself can stand on its own because of its nutty sweet flavor. im not really a big fan of leaves but Basil and Arugula are my favorite. I even planted basil at our backyard because i think you could use it on whatever Italian i think? im no Chef. im just an Eater haha and Focaccia Restaurant for me serves great Rolled up pizza, its so addicting!!! their other entrees thou are not so ok :( if you want another version of rolled up pizza, you could also try Dear Darla of Yellow cab.. but its not as good as Focaccia.

Sherlock's failed halloween Costume

Pup Culture celebrated its Halloween party last October 30, 2010.. and of course our baby Sherlock was part of the party along with his other cute little and big friends. there were games and prizes but sadly our Sherlock did not win anything. he's not to blame thou cause he's not done with his school yet.. :( all his other friend dogs are Pup Culture graduates already and they have bigger chances of winning.


another dilemma that we encountered was his Halloween costume. since he's not a small dog anymore, its difficult to find something that will fit him. all cute costumes we saw were just for tiny dogs.. sooo, Ivan thought of the Plants vs Zombies character..the flying zombie : I thought the idea was cute so i agreed. he bought a small tshirt for Sherlock and a red balloon but it didnt work out ok because the tshirt he bought was a bit big. and what added to the failed costume was his pee.. he peed on his costume so we had to take it off. but over all i think all the dogs had a great time at the party.. and sherlock? oh well, He's still cute whatever he wears :)

Movie: You Again

S o our movie for this week is "YOU AGAIN".. its a story about a young woman who realized her brother is about to marry the girl who bullied her in high school, she sets out to expose the fiancée's true colors. its a hilarious movie! its my kind of humor :)


its a funny movie but bullying in reality is never funny. although i've never experienced Bullying in High School. i think its just sad to bully someone who's not bullyable? if  theres a word.. but bullying doesnt just happen in High School. our whole life we will encounter people that will bully us if we're weak and puny. Bullies smell Fear i guess?

My favorite Salad

Salad is not something i find pleasure in eating.  but men oh men i just loovvee eating Pepper Lunch Salad. Im not kidding, i eat it like its meat.. the taste is just ooberly lip smacking! i love how they perfectly combined all the ingredients. Sarap tlaga for a salad!
 

although Pepper Lunch is not well known for its salad but for its sizzling plate (where you could cook just about whatever raw) they still managed not to disappoint people with this delightful feast. they even invented a way of mixing salad by putting it in a covered plastic cup where you just have to shake it until its all mixed up. i love it because its affordable but at the same time enjoyable :)
