Thanksgiving Preps...

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

....are underway here. Well, kinda. I already cleaned the bird so all that's left to do with it is put some butter on it and pop it in the roasting bag then pop it in the oven. No stuffing?? No stuffing...well, maybe an apple. I have also made the peanut butter pie that the little one loves. It's now in the freezer to set in. For the other pie, I am still debating if I should make an apple pie or a pumpkin pie. I haven't tried making apple pie so I'm a bit unsure if I should do it now or try it when there's no occasion. Pumpkin pie is the husband's favorite so I've made it a couple of times already. We'll see.

As for the sides, I am thinking of making some 'smashed potatoes' with a twist....I'm going to twist the potatoes...LOL. I make mashed potatoes on a regular basis, sometimes once a week, so I don't feel like making it for Thanksgiving. Hopefully, the husband will be able to find the baby potatoes I use to make the smashed potatoes...if not, maybe the small red potatoes will work. As for the veggies...not a clue yet. I have green beans in the fridge but I'm the only one that likes them. Maybe corn...maybe...

Elow Ate J! Hehehe... yeah somehow shutdown pah rin ako... hindi tumatakbo ang utak ko dahil sa antok. Anyway long expired nah ang Thanksgiving Day dito sa Canada. we had our thanksgiving day last October 13 kasi. So the US Thanksgiving day falls in November, I didn't know that (know I know hehehe).

Pero hindi kami nag-celebrate nang thanksgiving nung nag thanksgiving dito sa canada. Hindi kasi kami marunong magluto nang turkey hehehe. Pareho lang bah sa pagluto nang chicken? Hindi kasi sanay sa turkey, chicken lang hehehe.

Anyway, signing out muna ako sa real world and signing in to dream world... ZzZzZ...

You Belong With Me...Little One's Version

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the little one singing with the new Taylor Swift song called: You Belong with Me ... acapella She's a big TS fan right now so that's all I'm hearing around the house lately. The little one's video is far from perfect but I'm a proud Mama. She recorded this all on her own so pardon the little 'booboos/mistakes' she made while recording/singing. Enjoy! If you're not familiar with the song, here's the link to the official video .

Paid Blogging....

 ...is that still even a thing today? I stopped blogging actively several years ago...so now I'm like starting all over again.  I don't even know what to post anymore. A lot has changed since I started this blog in 2008. Yep, that's how long ago it's been. Back then I just wanted to write whatever. I was already a WAHM - Work at Home Mom when I started this blog and that's how my blog title came about. I started doing work-at-home jobs as early as 2002. I had a handful of different jobs I was juggling at that time so blogging was just really something I did during my free time. After a while I did paid blogging. I did that for a few years. I tried to do it as much as I could but my 'real' jobs had to be my priority so my blogging had to take a back seat. In retrospect, that may be the reason why I slowly lost interest in doing it. I tried going back to it every now and then, but the 'mojo' is just not there so I stopped altogether but opted to keep m...
