the girl with the chinese lantern obsession

..because Adrian bought me my longed-for wish: chinese lanterns, i decided, it was time for a bbq..




i had some friends over on Saturday.


some photos taken the day after the BBQ...i wasnt able to whip out my big Nikons during the BBQ because it was hard being the host and taking photos too..


so i will be backtracking photos. the next entry will be photos from that BBQ night from my canon g10..=)



















dont you think they're the cutest?



***


everyone commented on them when they came in..


last night, my stepson had a meal with us, and he also commented on these beautiful lights..

theyre tiny but they're adorable.

now, i want to send some to my little house in talisay,haha.

PS. i woke up so late and feverish. and again, semi-deaf in one ear. ive been getting this ear problem lately.

im sure i have an infection, nothing that a good strong antibiotic (and freshly squeezed orange juice) cant cure.

stay healthy lovelies.

tasty at Taste of London

"how do i look?" i asked my ever adoring husband after i put the finishing touches of my make-up...

"tasty" he said with a smile.

then he added, "...like green crunchy apples".

there goes my self-eestem.





dressy day for me








dusk coloured 'moi'





'perting hiyaka', lol







love and food goes together






another love shot=)

there's no denying, my husband loves green crunchy apples...

trying again

...i have been so motivated lately to go to the gym. im on my 3rd week of doing cardio exercises , and so far, im still going.

it has not shown any results yet (and im not expecting anything until after the 3rd month--if i do get there), as its just a recent preoccupation, but if there are, its how i feel after working out.

i still get so tired, but i do enjoy the lightness i feel after a 45 minute cardio workout on the cross trainer and treadmill.

plus, i am not dieting and i dont have an plans to diet (food is too important to me and i know myself, i wont be able to manage a full-time job with minimizing my food intake...not yet at least). i just eat the same stuff i used to, with a little more healthy options.


hopefully, ill continue, as i feel alot energetic and light on the feet. all these are just psychological results so far, but this means so much to a diabetic like me, who's constantly dead tired, day in and day out.






but of course, a whole body photo...





and yes, that ID look,adrian keeps taking of me.

lets see if there are changes on the third month...=)


*that is, if this gym-love continues..i need your prayers,lol*
