I have never been a sporty person. My family are just into books, TV and dining out – total couch potatoes really. So it is quite a blessing I married a man who is very active in sports. Edil is good at every field of sport he chose to learn. But it is basketball that [...]

It seems I might be getting an iPhone soon. While I find it a very cool, multi-tasking efficient gadget, it was never on my list of priorities. I just cannot bear the thought of parting with that much money so that I can do everything “at the palm of my hand”. But luck (and very [...]

Even if I am not great at cooking, one of my dreams is to have a complete kitchen. I really don’t want a state of the art kitchen, I just want a complete one that is cozy enough for our family to hang out in. Look at the picture above. That would be perfectly doable [...]

As far as I know, drug testing has always been used for screening purposes for employment and license for driving applications. Recently, there was a law implementing random drug testing in the workplace and making it legal.

I am a big fan of Italian food, it actually ranks number one in my most favorite foods of all time. I can eat pasta and pizza for the rest of my life. There are  Italian restaurant banquet rooms in San Diego CA that might be perfect for a romantic date this coming Valentine’s Day. [...]

I think amongst friends I am the only one who has a very basic phone. My mobile phone does not have 3G access and polyphonic tunes, not even space for  extra storage cards. Remember when the coolest thing you can have in your phone is streaming radio on your cell phone ? Due the release [...]

I really need to learn to be more active during the day. I have been a complete couch potato before and now I am burning a hole in my computer chair from being in front of the computer for most part of the day all the time. I used to run a lot before – [...]

I am currently on the lookout for a new TV I can install in our kitchen because it serves as a hangout for people in the house. We mostly eat breakfast there, eat snacks while kids do homework. It is really the central hub of the house. I am looking for deals of the day [...]
