Wet !!!

-


That NOT our driveway [I wish it is![ but that's how it looks like outside. It's been raining non-stop today. It was raining yesterday as well but not continuously like today.

The local newscasters say rain is in the forecast tomorrow so there's a good chance it's going to be a wet Thanksgiving Day as well. Thankfully we're staying at home tomorrow just like the past few years. The little one has been planning non-stop on what we should make for TD so I have to draw a line on some things. She wants us to bake both pumpkin and apple pie but I made her choose only one. She also wants some other sweet stuff but we agreed in only baking brownies.

We still have to decide on the side dishes but guess what???? Our "bird" is already done... finished...baked...cooked....ready to be served! Yep, hubby wants it roasted a day in advance. He 'thinks' it tastes a lot better if it's a day 'old' so I gave in to his wishes. This is the first time we're trying it that way so I don't really know. It's now cooling on the counter. Once it has cooled already, I'm going to wrap it up and refrigerate it. Then we'll carve it tomorrow for our TD 'feast. Nice, eh?

Anyway, for those who are on this part of the globe....

yahoo!!! pwede bang makikain?

right here, believe it or not, I'm not in the mood to go anywhere, thus, all invites were turned down, and I'm not keen on playing the hostess as well. I'm not even making anything because I'm 'OFF' all week haha. kidding aside though, wala talaga akong gana at gloomy ang feeling ko. F and I will have dinner at a Chinese buffet and we have made sure this resto is open tomorrow. Italian kami tonight kaya pwede nang Chinese bukas.

enjoy your baking venture with E. it will be more leisurely na for you kasi tapos na ang bird.

Ain't that baked "bird" too big for the three of you? How about sending part of it here. Ha ha ha!...
Happy Thanksgiving Day to all on that side of the globe!

Malls here are starting to adopt that American tradition. There are big banners about Thanksgiving celebrations everywhere here. I guess trying to bring it up for its commercial value eh.

how was your Thanksgiving day? Hope you three had a blast.

just came home from dining out at a Chinese buffet. There's not much resto operating today. It's good that we found this one.

o di nairaos din ang TD kahit sa bahay lang kami. never mind that the MIL is not happy with it hahaha. we had a sinful dinner at the Chinese buffet na bukas.

it's very windy here, aabot nga daw ng 50+++mph overnight into tomorrow morning. we just got home from our spa appointment.

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 .

My Life as WAHM....

Welcome to my blog. This is my first try to do this so please bear with me as I try to figure out how this thing called “blogging” works. I am a Filipina or a “Pinay” working at home or from home for the last 4 ½ years and loving every minute of it. I am married to an American and we have a 5-year old little girl. I’ve been living in the US for 6 years and I still don’t know how to drive…LOL. That’s probably the primary reason why I am working from home, well, aside from wanting to personally take care of our little one. Here’s a rundown of my online jobs. I hope it inspires anybody to believe that we, Pinays, can also land online jobs. So read on… Online Tutoring I am a teacher by profession so the first thing I looked for when I was searching for an online job is something related to teaching. I have not set foot in a classroom setting for the last 6 yrs, well, so yeah, since I got here. But technically, it’s only been 4 yrs since I have stopped teaching. The reason? My first work...
