It's a Big boys toy from xheli.com, He like the Chinook one but it's OS, and I like the honeybee but he like the one that looks like military. We check air wolf kind but OS too so he end up on Coast guard kind. He is still practising so this one suits on him and when he is already expert I can get him the chinnok or the expensive one. This one is cool it can fly 330M above and about 15" long.
Is he happy? yeah his smile is from ear to ear and he played with it right away and forgot about the dinner.

We just baked it and ate, he want something else and asked me to make a crab cake. I found a recipe online and turned out it was good. Looking forward to have another crab cakes on weekend.

We split when we reach the store cause I am looking for a new mouse and other stuff that I need. I forgot my phone at home so I look for him around at the sports section, I found him at the toy section grabbing an "Air hogs".
When he reach home he played with his "Air Hogs" right away. Before we went to bed he ask me to check online for an ultimate Heli that can fly longer than what he got. I found a site xheli.com, he said he want it for his birthday lol. I joke on him "are you in mid crisis?" Oh my big boy.

Oh look at my "Wacky Cake" lol. Since we always got pie, I decided to have a red velvet cake this time for a change. Well, the usually frosting for red velvet cake is butter cream and finely chop nuts. I made a butter bream frosting with the consistency not intended for decoration. I was experimenting on the color that end up being a "wacky cake" with color of peach pink and lilac, everything I designed has started to melt. I placed it in the fridge and this is what it looks like after.
The husband love it, he said it's good cake. I have a secret that's why lol, Box cake mix and any cake will be perfectly moist.

Last night my husband teases me, as if he forgets our wedding anniversary date. He is like playing a guessing game and telling me all the wrong month and date and he is looking at my facial reaction. I know he is just making fun of me. I do not know if there is a plan for our anniversary.
The only think I want to happen for our anniversary is having a New Jersey Vacation. One of my friends told me that there is a top New Jersey attractions. She gave me information about the Wildwood, that it is the best Jersey Shore beach Vacation.
My husband and I love the waters so much. In all our vacation overseas or interstate we make sure to include a beach vacation or water parks if possible. We love soaking on the ocean and lay on the sand.
He knows that I wanted to have a Wildwood Jersey vacation, so I am hoping that he will surprise me on our wedding anniversary. I know he love Wildwood because he keep telling me about his last vacation there, that he had so much fun and wanted to go back. Hope to see you guys at Wildwood before the first quarter of this year ends.

The forecast in the island is rainy with flash floods on certain areas. That is how we are going to welcome our new year, wet and wild New Year, ooppss "very wet new year".
Again it's me and my husband, we invited a friend but he said he can't spend it with us because he went to his parents on the other island. Some fireworks and foods and still we are waiting for the New years to come pretty soon in about 45 minutes. Hopefully the rain will subside a little bit, not as pouring as it is right now. But some say rain is a blessing so hopefully we will be more blessed on the coming 2009.

I hope that 'global crisis' will end on the coming year and ease some of our worries, I wish that everybody will be alright and economy will bounce back to its good side. 2008 is too much for most of us.
So lets put every worries behind and hope for the best to come!

One of our new year's resolutions is to eat healthy. Like less grease, less red meat more on food and vegetables, less in process foods. I think we need a gadget to help us fulfill our goal, so I have requested a healthy grilling a product of George Foreman. I want to have the Grill 360, where you can grill, bake deep dish pizza, press Panini or quesadilla or turn it as pancake maker in the morning. I love a gadget that can make my life easy and can do many tasks, not just press alone.

I am crazy about scented candles and candles of all shapes and sizes, in fact few years back, I collect different scents and shapes of candles. I love it's scent when it is not lighted, but never mined to lit it because my nightmare will start. I hate the burning wax smell plus the scent it carries, it make me nauseous and make me feel sick.
Christmas night when we have the island wide black out, we use the torch (flashlight). I did lit two scented candle for a while but decided to turn it off because I am starting to feel sick. Hubby said 'why don't we lit up the center piece candles', he is not done saying it yet, I interrupted him by saying big 'OH NO!' He knows why lol

We check out our friend yesterday. Actually he is my husband's friend he is a nice and so funny guy. But I was so surprised that he and his wife are having divorce, they have been married for almost six years, without a kid but they look in love. It's just sad to know that one of our closest friends is having divorce.
By the way when we went to the ranch where my husband friends hang out mostly I found out that his friend has bought a turbocharger for his truck. He is now staying at the ranch since he and his wife separated, the ranch is located by the mountain. I really feel sorry for them.

Aww it feels good being 'kids' once in a while. I love watching cartoons, it make me feel like a kid again lol. It's been awhile that I haven't watch my favorite cartoons on Disney channel and cartoon network even the cartoon Disney movies because the husband is teasing me.
Now that his son is old enough to demand cartoon DVD, he don't have any choice sometimes. Yesterday we watch 'Star Wars' animated and 'Kung Fu Panda' and my favorite character ever 'Tinkebell', guess what, the husband love it and went back to rent some more 'star wars' lol.

How does your acne affect your self-esteem? I never thought that adults will also suffer from acne irritations; sadly I am one of them. I am really curious why adult still suffer from acne so I research on it. I find out that 1 in 5 adults suffer from acne and the cause includes hormones, abnormal flaking of the cell inside the hair follicle.
I really feel ashamed of my acne; I badly need a remedy so I consider using acne pills. After using the pills for a week, I saw the good result of it. Now I'm back to my old self, and I have my self-esteem back.
