This is the downside for working in a Chinese company. They do not understand the essence of Christmas season. As of today, I am going to teach online until midnight. I will still work despite the special day today. Being...

Raine38 Merry early Christmas to you! I used to work for a Chinese-owned company in the Philippines, and it is hard to progress in terms of career. The highest spot will always be given to someone they know, or someone they are related to. So I promised myself to...

I finished listening to Cabin at the End of the World by Paul G. Tremblay. There is a movie by M.Night Shalaman that is based on the book. It's called Knock at the Cabin. Yes, I watched it. Big Warning: there is lots of violence...

Raine38 I am intrigued by this book - oftentimes the book is better than the movies. And no, I am selfish that way - I cannot sacrifice the people I care and love, I would rather give up my own life.

I got inspired by this hotel that we stayed in when I visited a client's site. Normally, typical hotel breakfast is not all that good. But this time, I was pleasantly surprised that they have a really good oatmeal bar! Freshly...

Raine38 Thanks, you should give it a try as it definitely levels up your oatmeal. If you want, you can also make savory toppings for your oatmeal.

I love all those cute boards and platters they have on Pinterest, and I want to take one to my Thanksgiving event. I am leaning toward a veggie platter. It might be kind of hard to transport, but i think doubling up some aluminum...

Raine38 I am partial to a sweet platter and at the same time, I also want something salty/savory to balance it out. It's a hard toss, but I saw some boards and platters that have both elements.

I complimented someone and said "what do you mean, I look nice everyday". I was a bit flabbergasted by that response,lol. I have no problem complimenting anyone but usually they will say thanks and keep it moving. Even myself, I...

Raine38 Well, it's hard to tell without more context. I do admit that I have received similar responses, but I also know that they are just messing with me and will even try to pull funny faces to go with it. I have yet to experience someone who really takes a...

Understand, this is American Chinese food, so if you're in China, this may not look like yours. Last night, unbeknownst to me, my daughter ordered Chinese for both of us. I had offered her a Marie Callender meal, but she said no...

Raine38 Some Chinese food are best eaten while it's still warm from being cooked, while others taste better after reheated. Can't really tell why, but I think that is one breakfast that I have tried many times. I hate wasting food, so I am not at all picky when it...

Raine38 I am like you, I am not much for turkey burgers but I am good if it is cooked in chili, or when it's made into turkey ham. For dinner tonight, I am making chicken adobo fried rice and baked salmon. We had some leftover chicken adobo from dinner last night,...

I went outside to help the hubby lift the hood for the old tractor Saturday. He was determined to drain the gas out of it and refill with clean fuel and running it for awhile. I told him he needed to stop aggravating his...

Raine38 What a cutie! I don't think that position is very comfortable, but who knows what goes in their minds. I am sure I have taken naps in uncomfortable locations and positions when I was younger, so can't blame the poor kitty!

Raine38 Twitter is not the same anymore. I am referring to way back, not even after Elon. I am talking about when Tweeting was used to link and promote blogs. I still have it, for no good reason. I heard that they might also start charging users for it, when that...
