Not so little chicken

I usually hate movies about animals and avoid them like the plague, no Benjie or Lassie's for me!! So guess how shocked I was that I really really liked the new Disney animation Chicken Little. I had an appointment at the Intercon at 2:30 which was pushed to 3:30 at the last minute, so I decided to take in a movie since the weather was icky with rain, didn't feel like much shopping at all. I had wanted to see Reese Witherspoons new movie but unfortunately it was gonna end past 4pm, so I had no choice but to watch Chicken Little. Oh my goodness, the movie was hilarious, so funny, editing was very tight, didn't have too many dragging scenes like singing and stuff which I really really hate! This is really a MUST SEE movie!!!

Hamming it Up

This was the sight that greeted me when I decided to drop by Excelente on Palanca street, as you can see it is very famous for it's cured hams. With only 3 people at home, I usually just buy a fourth of a kilo.

To Pho or not to pho

I have been cutting back on my carb intake for the past 2 weeks to try to bring down my triglyceride levels so says my doctor. But I guess with a ton load of projects that I've been working on at the same time, I kinda went ballistic when I saw this new restaurant "Pho Saigon" on Banawe st., I love Vietnamese noodles and haven't had one in a long long time, so I was pretty excited to try out their Pho. I don't know if I was just hungry or what but everything was so good, the noodles, the coffee, the spring rolls, it was all so heavenly!!!

A Visit to the Big House

This is probably the most famous house in the entire archipelago, the house of BIG BROTHER. Despite not having watched a single episode, I still couldn't resist seeing it when I went to pick up my paycheck at FOOD magazine.

Switching to JD

Just saw the video for the new INXS song "Pretty Vegas" and it looks and sounds awesome. Their new album SWITCH will be released on November 29, and I'm looking forward to seeing how well their new vocalist JD Fortune gels with the band, being that Pretty Vegas was something he wrote on his own. But I must say that he looks super hot on the video! Hopefully he will be a worthy replacement for the late, great Michael Hutchence.

I'm seeing Red!

Thanksgiving Feast

Here is the thanksgiving feast that I had been slaving over since 9am. I made 2 turkeys, 2 pecan pies, & the mashed potatoes w/ parmesan cheese, the clam chowder soup was made by the cook while my aunt Judy made her own wholewheat french bread which we spread with garlic butter. Everything was all GOOD!!!
