Tags is a 4-year old Japanese Spitz/ Dalmatian mixed dog who is very picky.
Here, I took his picture as my husband was holding up his paws so that he could stand up.
He is a very kind dog who never gets mad.

I love noodle dishes. The other night, I cooked an egg noodle dish. I cooked the whole pack of noodles that I bought which in my estimate almost a half kilo. Other ingredients are pork slices, carrots, dried shrimps called "hibe"...

Joanna Truscott I just can not seem to get round to cooking. Omelettes, yes fine, perhaps pasta -not from scratch. I am a convenience food lover because often I just do not want to take ages to prepare something. when I am hungry i find something that is going to be quick to...

In a few days, restaurants will be open for dine in. Right now, some restaurants are open for take out and drive-through only. But do they think that people will go there to dine? I myself admit that I am scared to do that because...

Joanna Truscott This is why you should never go hiking alone, and yeah, what a mistake for the hiker to make in his judgement.

Hey friends..
I am touching 30 this year and my family is killing me to get married.
Sometime I think I should settle down and then again I feel like No..Not now.
I am very confused. Is it really a good idea to get married...

Joanna Truscott Your gut instinct is the right answer on this one. I believe that marriage is only something you should do when you are 100% sure that is no one else for you and that life without that person wouldn't be worth living. Not being in a relationship, that makes it...

Joanna Truscott HI Laurel,
I find it hard in the mornings not to be emotional about going to work whilst this pandemic is still going on. I work in a super market I wear a mask and gloves. Not every one does. To make working a more calming experience take some calming teas...
