Designing my dream kitchen
This is the first time that I will be designing our kitchen – my dream kitchen. I always wanted to have a kitchen island and my dearest hubby said Yes! I think kitchen islands are great way to bring the social atmosphere back into the kitchen. They encourage your family and friends to hang out while you cook without getting in your way, or give them a space to help out. A well placed and designed kitchen island directs the flow of traffic in the kitchen, both physically and socially.
I am really excited to have my plans initiated. It’s fun to design the kitchen especially for the homemakers. I have already been looking for some more ideas and here are some that I found online:
So, why did I decide to have a kitchen island? An island provides you a significant amount of counter space to work with. In the preparation of food, this counts a lot particularly when you are working on large meals. This space can also make an excellent serving spot for a buffet-style meal, as well as a nice casual place to eat a snack or have drinks.
Now that I have finished deciding on where to the counter to put the sinks and the stove, next will be the walls. I am considering glass tile for backsplash because it is easier to clean and with the inventory I have seen on glasstiletrend.com I think I am almost sold.
The site is very pleasing to the eyes, it makes me want to browse around the whole day. If you look on the left sidebar, you will see there all the types of glass tile they offer. I particularly like the bamboo glass tile and the art pebbles glass tile. I think you can find any tile you want here, whatever your budget is. Just click the glass tiles on clearance on the sidebar to see what I mean.
Also if you have questions, you can almost find all the answer at the FAQ, if it’s not there you could easily send them your query via the contact form and they promise to respond immediately.
It’s just a pity they only ship within the US but hey if you have family in the US, you can ask them to receive it for you. For orders above $199, the shipping is free.
Johnny Depp and Me
John: Jade, don’t hang up. I want to see you. Please.
Jade: Johnny, I am married now and so are you. Stop calling me. We had a good run but now we have to move on…
John: I can’t and I won’t. You are always on my mind.
Jade: I am gonna hang up now, please move on with your life. Don’t dwell on the past.
*Jade hangs up.
* alarm clock went off * Jade wakes up.
-The end.-
if it was only true, Johnny Depp and Moi 
I’ll let you know if he bothers me in my dreams again 
================================================
Now you are wondering about the picture, right? Well let me tell you how I did it. I was organizing my files the other day and was looking through the picture folders in my laptop and realized that picture after picture that most of them seem to be so similar to each other. I want some fun looking photo so I asked my brother if he has any software to do this. He then referred me to a site where you can add photo effects online. I love this site! You can create funny photos in a jiffy. Look at what I made:
The site is super easy to navigate plus they have it in many languages as well so everybody can use it and add funny photo effect to their pictures. I tried out some of the pictures that I have here and there is no doubt that the outcome is remarkable.
I have been playing with my photos for several days now, and and another cool thing on this site is that they EVERY DAY – NEW PHOTO EFFECT. My brother loved the simplicity of the site as well and has been constantly playing around with his pictures too.
How to Salsa
My hubby loves Salsa, I enjoy the music too, I just wish I was a good dancer. Hubby have found an online salsa tutorial where they teach you how to dance. If you look at it, it does look quite simple, once you know the basics all you have to do is go with the music. Here’s a video tutorial I found, check it out and maybe we can all salsa together one of these days.
Amazing how many things we can do online nowadays, we can get a salsa lesson, buy food, get an insurance online, talk with loved ones abroad…my gosh endless!
