Skewers Overload

My friends and I agreed to have a send-off dinner because one of us was about to leave for Belfast. He'll be deployed there for a month or two. We asked him to decide where he wanted to have dinner and he wanted Jap food. We ended up at Nanbantei of Tokyo at Greenbelt3.

So it was my first time to eat at Nanbantei of Tokyo so I wasn't sure what to order. I was told that I should definitely try their skewers... So we ordered 2 sets of their Best Seller >>

It has the following >> 21 sticks in total: Aspara Maki, Tebasaki, Pork Garlic Yaki, Shiso Maki, Negima, Corn, and Poteto Maki.

This is how they cook the skewers.. so I think it can be considered 'healthy'

I like it! I think it's a good choice for people who really aren't that hungry and just want to chat over light dinner.

I'm out. :)

Ba-Bye Ate

Today was quite a sad day for our family. For a very close-knit family, goodbyes are really extra difficult to say . Especially if the one leaving will be miles and seas away. My Ate (with her husband) left this morning for the US. They'll be starting their new life there. She already has work so I don't need to worry about that anyway, and I'm sure that she'll definitely do well. My parents were really sad... maybe it's the thought of being "away" from her. Tipong you have to hop on a plane pa just to be able to get to her. The whole family has US visa naman , we can go there anytime (as long as we have the money I guess :p) Yes, I cried a lot as well... and I guess it's because of all the bilins I got from her. The one that stuck the most " Ikaw na bahala dito ha.. Alagaan mo sila Mama and Papa. Si Ivan ha... Wag mo silang pabayaan. " My nephew on the other hand was a different story... he was eager to go home already when we got to NAIA. ...

Commitmentphobe No More

Look... check out who finally commits. :) I've read about this in my friend's blog sometime last week. (Hi Carla ! Thanks for sharing). My initial reaction... "WHY VERONICA?!?" I was such a Betty fan. Oh well... So I've read more about the article just this morning and here's part of it.. “People who vote for Veronica-Archie are the idealists, the people who say, ‘I'm voting for the glitz, the glamour, the high energy, the sexiness, the ideal [and] they might not even care so much that it'll only last five years,'” says the Toronto-based registered family, marriage and sex therapist. Those who yearn to see Archie and Betty get hitched take a more realistic, traditional view, she says. They're more grounded, are thinking long term and have more of a sense of “for always and forever.” The way the girlfriends each relate to Archie sheds a lot of light on their character. Betty allows Archie to push her aside, a sign she'd make a submissive...

Silver

From wiki -> Silver (pronounced /ˈsɪlvɚ/ ) is a chemical element with the chemical symbol Ag ( Latin : argentum , from the Ancient Greek : ἀργήεντος - argēentos, gen . of ἀργήεις - argēeis, "white, shining" ) and atomic number 47. A soft, white, lustrous transition metal , it has the highest electrical conductivity of any element and the highest thermal conductivity of any metal. The metal naturally occurs in its pure, free form (native silver) and as an alloy with gold ( electrum ), as well as in various minerals , such as argentite and chlorargyrite . Most silver is produced as a by-product of copper , gold , lead , and zinc refining . Silver has been known since ancient times and has long been valued as a precious metal , used to make ornaments, jewelry, high-value tableware and utensils (hence the term silverware ) and currency coins. Today, silver metal is used in electrical contacts and conductors, in mirrors and in catalysis of chemical reactions. Its c...
