Hello Guest! It's been a wonderful journey with you these past couple of years. I have decided to merge this blog with my main blog (watson.online). Life has been very busy and it's only January! So rather than having guilt pangs about not being able to update, I will merge blogs instead.Unfortunately, I'm having a problem migrating to the new Blogger so until then, I won't be able to do

Once upon a time, there was a bunch of officemates who found some things in common: humor, food, clothes, food, movies, food, sports, food, games, food, and more food.

I've had Mongolian Barbecue a couple of times already but I haven't acquired the taste. It's where you get to dump all sorts of veggies onto your bowl, your choice of meat (pork, beef, chicken, or shrimp), then you are asked if you want it spicy, sweet, etc. and they put in the spice to make it so then they cook everything up. You can come back for a number of times.The first time I tried it in

Freshly-baked, yummy cinnamon bread at Star Cafe in Session Road, Baguio City. Star Cafe is one of the older establishments in the city but they transferred from acress the street in the late 90s. This coffee shop was a popular place for politicians to have coffee and talk about ... well ... politics. I'm not sure if this is still the ambience of the place though in its relatively new setting.

This is cross-referenced with an article in my other blog.As can be seen in the photo, I no longer have any space to put the toys, so they can be found anywhere: the top of cabinets, on the TV, in cabinets, in the dining area. Nevertheless I still buy some toys from fastfood meals and some items that may catch my fancy.

Hello guests! Looks like the original purpose of blah-blah-ger does not suit its purpose well. So rather than becoming a repository of miscellaneous items, I feel that it can become something greater than its former self. I am therefore converting this into a photo blog! But I will retain the name; it sounds nice overall. Good luck, blah-blah-ger!

A Soulful Relationship by Reverend Ronald McFadden If you're not married yet, share this with a friend. If you are married, share it with your spouse or other married couples and reflect on it. An African proverb states, "Before you get married, keep both eyes open, and after you marry, close one eye." Before you get involved and make a commitment to someone, don't let lust, desperation,

Where did one peso go? Three friends ate at a restaurant. Their total bill was 25 pesos, so each shelled-out 10 pesos. The change was thus 5 pesos. A peso each was returned and the remaining 2 pesos was given to the waiter as a tip. Now for the calculation: How much did each person give? 9 pesos (that's 10 pesos less 1 peso returned). 9 pesos x 3 persons = 27 pesos 27 pesos + 2 pesos for the
