Insect I Hate Most

Ulk, I really hate these ANTS! These puny, irritating and overly populated colony are extremely and undeniably a nuisance and indescribably filthy!

Imagine this...ants eat dead cockroaches, dead rats, dead cats, yes..cadavers; they love spit, rotten food, soil, any unimaginably filthy things and of course they love your clean food too, and in your clothes, they can be there too.

And when you have forgotten your precious food on top of your desk, tables or in your bags or simply kept them in a safe place, well you thought it was a safe place, until, there they are..feasting on your priced desert!

Oh, com'on, yes they are being admired as the most industrious insects and they work and work for the rainy season and let's be inspired with their actions! Oh yes, I'm there..got it! So how do we keep them away and go find food somewhere else then?

So, I checked everywhere and looked for a solution, CLOVES make ants at bay. And some chemical "chalks" that can actually kill them, but be careful with these chemicals, it might harm you too and your kids.

So there, I have released my angst from these horrible insects! Bye ants!

Happy to See my Children Eat Veggies

Yes, that's right! My 3 kids eating veggies!

It has been a cliche that children will never eat veggies. I beg to disagree until I experienced it! It's so hard to feed them when they see the served food containing vegetables. It's like an automatic reaction that they're no longer hungry when in fact just 2 minutes ago, they're screaming of starvation!

So there, instead of seeing them get sick, I have been serving all meat viands. Until the moment arrived when I had no time to do grocery. What's left in my fridge were veggies. I panicked and tried to check my canned goods...no stock! huh..heart beat pounded! I stood firm and chose to feed them veggies.

I got the bean sprouts out, the carrots, cabbage, and a 1/4 kilo of ground chicken lean meat. Sauteed the meat and stir fried the veggies and tuck them in spring roll wrappers. Yes, it sounds like a typical lumpia. The TWIST - I added cheese sticks. Fried the rolls and made a great dip - mayonnaise with dried basil and parsley (though my son chose the medium hot flavored vinegar)..yumyum!

Indulge! Enjoy!

And I had a problem what to serve my husband because my 3 kids finished the 20 medium rolls.

Go ahead, try it and add to your menu this week.

So this is....a new beginning!

Here it is, my 1st post in this new blog spot...right here at blogspot.com!

So excited and nervous at the same time. I am really not a reader of books, blogs etc. or even a blogger! But I have so many accounts from friendster, facebook, twitter...name it , I think I have 'em. I have been a computer geek 2 years now, and now venturing to graphic artistry... I have so many things that I can do and I still would want to do and experience a lot more things.

So what's the point...well, I believe I need to make use of this new skill or talent and I would want to share some thoughts. May this be an outlet of who I am, how I feel, where I've been, when and what I do & like to do...basically everything...

I am a 32 year old mother of 3 and a loving wife to my so devoted and loving husband!

So here, my journey with you is now becoming a reality...
