Tempted To Max

I've been into blog hopping this morning, and honestly I'm a little tempted to fully utilize my blog, i.e. maximize blog earnings by putting ads and be all out and active in links swaps, adgitize, entrecard, etc. Blame it on the blog post I read, where the blogger earns more than US$ 500 a month through blogging. That's quite enough to push through with Orlando vacations plans! Hahaha.

But much as I want to, I am still not fully convinced and up for it. I prefer that my blog is still a simple one, where all my thoughts, ramblings, and musings on the joys of living are, well, blogged.

Housewife

I was checking out images of housewives so that i can make a banner of my own, and was amused when the results were something like this:

Now this one is funny!

Then i see this...

Is this a more modern rendition?

Hehehehe.

I think I'm more like this...

Artistic interpretation of work at home moms...

Pierre Herme Craziness!

Ok. This is scary.

I am really getting addicted to Pierre Herme miniature collection. Bordering on obsession, really.

I saw this website, e-tradersplace, that sells the Pierre Herme miniature collection (2).

This collection consists of 5 different pastries with different themes: New Year, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Birthday, and Christmas.

Here's a picture on the items in detail:

Cost? PhP 1,700+ for the collection, PhP400+ for shipping.

This is deadly.

Pierre Herme Miniature Collection

Thanks to Chuvaness' post, I was introduced to the world of Pierre Herme miniature collection. I'm not really the type who collects anything, but this made me want to start my very own collection!

I felt so child-ish when I dropped my first few tokens in Toy Kingdom, and when the egg case came out, I was ecstatic! Hahaha, yeah I know. Super funny moment. But it was really a thrill for me (not exactly a cheap thrill because it'll cost you PhP 100 a pop).

I was a bit disappointed though because what I got were the same ones. Chuvaness however didn't have the letter B, which I had two, so we agreed to trade! She's trading letter A, which I really wanted to get, hehehe.

I was beginning to feel addiction when after I got home, I googled the collection (better than collecting Acid cigars right?). Turns out that the Gashapon was just a small part of a bigger and grander miniature collection, hahahaha!

Gash, I wish I was in another country, Japan perhaps hahaha, so that I could get hold of these. My Aunt will go to Japan as part of their cruise, and maybe she can get me some of these when she sees them... please please please!

I guess I can only satisfy my craving via Toy Kingdom, and I'm sure I'd have duplicates along the way. So for those of you who are into collecting these lovely babies and have duplicates too, let's trade! Hehehe.

Aside from the Pierre Herme website, check out 8Tokyo too. I mean, look at this picture from 8Tokyo...

L-O-V-E.

Gadgetry Cases

I gotta protect my new gadgets, you know. Can't really afford to replace them if broken or lost. Hahaha.

PS: Yes, I crashed when I came to keeping my vow. I changed my Lenten vow after the Bazaar incident when I completely forgot about it and got myself some earrings for a cheap thrill. New vow? No meat next week.

I laughed. Those were the days!

Unfortunately, I forgot the answer to this. Or was there a specific answer?

My New Reader

I've got a new fan of my blog... Who could it be?

Of course, it's my dearest husband!

He finally decided to read my blog, and then he sent me this email...

I love reading your blog. Until now, I'm still here and I haven't stopped reading.

Awwww.

But then again... it means I can no longer rant about him. Nyahahahaha! Love you too honey. Wish you would take the next step and comment on my posts. Hehehe.
