Buffalo Wings!

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Me and Polly dined at Pizza Hut for lunch. It was his treat, so I ordered Spaghetti Carbonara with softdrinks and salad. He’s ok with shake at first, but after a while he ordered another menu. So he called up the waitress and handed him the menu book.

Waitress: May I take your order sir?

Paul: Buffalo wings!

Waitress: A what sir?

Paul: Buffalo wings please.

Without any idea what he’s talking, the waitress scanned the menu and found no Buffalo wings in there. So he scanned it by himself instead.

Paul: Ah Chiken wings (hot wings)!

Watress: Smiled.Giggled.

Me: LOL!

I couldn’t stop laughing, he and the waitress laughed as well. He blushed and I really think he felt embarrassed (i just don’t know if he did). Well, I actually searched it over the net and  found out that yes, “buffalo wings” is another name for hot chicken wings. He was right in a way, it’s just that it has different name on the menu. I’m sorry Polly for laughing that hard to look at your red face!*peace* :P

And there’s another one…Hehe

I was thirsty, so I offered him a shake (zagu).

Me: Polly ano gusto mo? Strawberry akun.

Paul: Sago’t Gulaman.

Me: Huh?

Paul: Sago’t Gulaman.

Me: ????

Paul: Ah Buko Pandan gle.

Me: LOL

I don’t know what happened to him this day! He made me laugh because of his ‘out of this world’ words that are coming out of his mouth. Hay, I really love to laugh/smile. I just love those kind of friends. ;)

*PS: I actually had his permission for me to post it here, so probably, he won’t feel bad at me.

Here are some of the common food items that should not be given to your dogs, as they have been found to be either directly or indirectly “toxic” to them: (more…)

Facts about Watermelon

3 of 5 Watermelons that we bought

Few days ago my brother was craving so bad to watermelon. Just this Saturday when he was so deeply depressed to have eat watermelon. So we ended up riding on a bike and bought 5 watermelons!

We ate 3 of them while putting the rest on the fridge ’cause they are really good to be eaten when they’re cold. I not a huge fan of watermelons but i do like to eat them. Just a coincidence, i guess, that night i was reading a magazine and i stumbled on a page saying that watermelons are good source of lycopene. Lycopene which according to wikipedia is the most powerful carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen[1], being 100 times more efficient in the singlet-oxygen quenching action than Vitamin E, which in turn has 125 times the quenching action of glutathione (water soluble). 

I never knew that fact then. So i searched it over the internet and found this interesting fact about watermelons.

A one-cup serving of watermelon will provide around 48 Calories. Watermelon is an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin A, with one serving containing 14.59 mg of vitamin C and 556.32 IU of vitamin A. Watermelon also provides significant amounts of vitamin B6 and vitamin B1, as well as the minerals potassium and magnesium. Pink watermelon is also a source of the potent carotenoid antioxidant, lycopene. The amino acid citrulline was first extracted from watermelon and analysed.[5] Watermelons contain a significant amount of citrulline and after consumption of several kg an elevated concentration is measured in the blood plasma, this could be mistaken for citrullinaemia or other urea cycle disorder.

A Happy New Year

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

New year couldn’t be as happy when not shared with friends and of course with family. This year, though we are not that complete, still we manage to celebrate it as happy as it is. Foods are everywhere, i guess, that’s the reason why many people are having problem with their weights. Haha! Me? Well, I can see my tummy getting bigger… ^_^

I celebrated new year with my family beside me. We watched TV while waiting for the count down to 2008. About an hour to go, i went to the kitchen and arranged the table for foods. We didn’t have a lot of foods to share though. I think we had like 8 or 9 different kinds of foods.

When 12 mid night came, i could hear fireworks/firecrackers and been hearing them everywhere! We all have smiles on our faces as we hope for a happy, safe and prosperous new year to live. Another year, another lives for all of us!

Happy New Year everyone! ^_^

My Usual Snacks

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

I stumbled to a post on a blog of Moslemen’s entitled My Usual Snacks at McDonalds. He pictured there his french fries scattered and sure I would love to post mine. However, it’s not fries, but instead pizza! Yummy! I’m a pasta person and I am always craving for pizza. I also love carbonara, fettucini, zetti, and spaghetti. Ouch! I’m now starving.

This is Pizza hut’s pizza

Cakes Anyone?

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

I am not a huge fan of cake. But I do love to eat cake! Yum yum!

100_1649.JPGWhy do I love cake? Well, because it is sweet, comes with different flavor and of course so delicious! Chocolate flavored cake is one of my favorites, second is mocha.

Why the hell am I talking about cake? Oh dear, I miss eating it. The last time I ate was last Saturday, when we had breakfast in our favorite Bakeshop and I ordered a honey crunch cake. And now, I am craving to have some more! Geee I am hungry and I couldn’t help my starving stomach.

Anyway, I have here the pictures of cakes that I took last Saturday. I can’t wait to have some this weekend! :D
