Simulating a dark room for that perfect sleeping environment

Posted by carey

I can’t believe it I slept for more than 8 hours and woke up at almost 10 am this morning. I guess I just lack a lot of sleep with our busy schedule before my parents and cutie sis left for Prague last Tuesday. Among other health concerns, sleep is very much important to me. […]

Lasagna for dinner

So I just finished baking lasagna this evening, and had one slice for dinner matched with ice cream and hot chocolate to top it all. With the many recipes for this yummy Italian dish, I used the Golden Grain lasagna recipe at the back of its package. I already used this recipe at home in […]

I gotta wear shades!

Posted by carey

With the hot summer sun up these days, one has to reach for some shades to protect the eyes from the sun’s glare. And those sunglasses don’t only provide comfort and help shield the eyes from the sun’s harmful UV rays but they also make a fashion statement, yeah? I found lots of stylish eyewear […]

Just some updates

Posted by carey

Yesterday we sent off dad, mom, cutie sis and her baby at the bus station. They had to catch the evening flight to Prague at the Helsinki airport and they had to ride the bus from Pori to Helsinki which takes about 4 hours of travel. Their last moments here in Finland were spent posing […]

Home sweet home

Posted by carey

Being on vacation can be fun, though sometimes you have to admit that there’s really no place like home. I bet even my dad misses our home too especially tinkering around with his tools and carpentry works. Well, my parents will be going home ahead of me next week so I know he is looking […]

Sleep is the sweetest thing on earth

Posted by carey

Are you familiar with that story about a king giving three riddles and one of them was about the sweetest thing in this world? Nope, the answer wasn’t honey or sugary syrup or candies but a nice deep sleep, and I couldn’t agree more. For some, sleep is a welcome respite after a tiresome day’s […]

Doing research on technical products/services

Posted by carey

I used to work as part of the quality assurance team in a telecommunications company and our department’s focus is on testing and evaluating different products before they are being accepted for use in our network. There would be lots of suppliers sending in their quotes for a project’s requirements and sometimes the task of […]

Flowers along the way

Posted by carey

Every time we would take a walk outside my cutie sis’ flat in Prague, we would be happy to see some flowers along the way. I couldn’t help but take photos of some of them. Flowers are God’s wonderful creations and their beauty never fails to lighten the weariness of somebody who would chance upon […]

Web analytics solution

This blog started late last year and never got to be updated as regularly as planned though I am glad I’ve kept it running with more posts lately and subscribing it to social networking sites. When I was still a newbie, I was curious about who’s reading my blog or where they came from and […]

Life gets in the way…of blogging!

Posted by carey

It’s a case of being ‘blogless’ as I would like to call it (a play of the word ‘speechless’ when you ran out of something to say)… a state of being unable to post anything on your blog.
Seriously, I haven’t been updating this blog regularly these days due to a lot of reasons…and they could […]

In-home tutoring

Posted by carey

One problem faced by parents is how their children can excel in school, most especially if it is a most-sought-after high standard school. Exclusive schools usually give entrance tests or qualifying exams and these are highly competitive. Tutoring for their children is a resort for some parents.
One good alternative is Club Z! They offer in-home […]

Dark moist chocolate cake

Posted by carey

This afternoon, as requested by my big sis here in Finland, I baked my signature dark moist chocolate cake, which is also everybody’s favorite.
Guess who were my self-appointed helpers? My cute nephew four-year-old R-jed and his elder sister Anzel, seven. My 1st assistant, the little boy, did the stirring of the ingredients while my 2nd […]
