I want to say boooooooo to the academy awards!!! best picture should have gone out to avatar!!!!!!! who the heck pick these winners?? avatar should have won by thousands and thousands of miles! how can grossing over 1 billion worldwide go wrong???
it was my first time watching the academy awards…. and it will be my last. It was a big big joke.Not only was it boring, stupid movies like “district 9″ made the cut too. what a friggen joke!!
my angel playing with her “treasures.” She has a collection of barbie dolls and stuffed animals in her room. This basket, however is filled of all the little things she likes to play with. She dumps them out of that little basket and plays with them. Then when she is done playing, she cleans it up… just like I taught her. My baby is such a good girl!!!
I want to pass along this public service announcement that I saw from Nye Noona’s blog. On your 2010 census, if you are Lao American, check “other” and write “Lao American” or “Laotian.” Let our voices and our culture be heard!!! Say it together…

Nye Noona sent me her famous Jaew Bong. Wow… it was DELICIOUS! Very spicy, filled with herbs and spices. I can taste the shallots, the garlic, and the pork skin was a very nice addition. Thank you so much, Nye! I can’t believe I actually get to taste one of your “throw downs.” I’m a lucky lucky girl. Hehe
Yummy... we ate half the caintainer already.
chickens, jaew, and rice.
my fiancee's hand dipping his sticky rice into the jaew bong. He ate all the pork skin by the way. lol
An animal trainers died when a killer whale pulled her down into the tank, drowning her.
Seaworld is one of my favorite parks, so it was sad to hear that such a tragedy happened there. I love looking at all the animals at Seaworld and I am always amazed when I watch the killer whales perform with their trainers. It’s incredible to see such a big predator interact with humans. I thought it was kind of magical.
My condolence goes out to the family and friends of the victim. Though I am saddened by this news, I am disgusted by some people’s suggestions and comments. Some people would like to see the whale killed and put away.
The trainer was doing what she loved. It was her childhood dream to work with those whales. And as an animal trainer, she was well aware of the dangers that comes with her job. She died doing what she loved. And to kill the very animal that she loves, that would be totally fucked up. And to release Tilikum into the sea may even kill him since he has been in captivity for so long. I think they should just let him retire. No more performing for him. I think that would be the best solution.
What happened was a tragic accident. I don’t understand why some people are trying to dig so hard as to what really happened.
As sad as it is———- if you play with fire, you will get burn.

I freaking love som puk gud (pickled mustard cabbage)! My mom brought over a whole container for me. yes, I ate the whole thing in a matter of two days!! It seems like you can yum pretty much anything, so I made yum ham. It was good, but it was missing round onions. This was a delicious meal complete with jasmine rice and peppers! Oh man… my mouth is watering again. LOL
My yum ham. LOL.. And no I wasn't taking drugs along with my food. that is a bottle of my daughter's vitamins. Hehe..
My som Puk. I eat everything with jasmine rice. I'm not a big fan of sticky rice.
gosh.. I love my baby girl. Toddlers are so darn cute, especially when they talk. I can’t help but laugh and have such warmth in my heart when I hear her speak!
lol… she refers to everyone, including her daddy as “she.”
like she’d ask me….. mommy? where duddy?? she go to wowk??
grampire is her way of saying vampire.
ice cream – ife fream
when her daddy upsets her, she goes.. “she not my fwend anymore!”
she doesn’t know how to pronounce the letters “C” and “K” yet, so when she says “cry” she goes ” bryee.” lol
then she likes to add an “s” to every word, like tomorrow(s) ..
“Mommy… she go to wowk tomorrowssss??”
Swimming pool – wimming pool
bath – baff
“mommy… I hungareeee!!”
Gosh.. I don’t want her to grow up!!! I want her to stay like this forever, but.. sighh…… I know that’s impossible. One thing is for sure though… she will be my babyy forever.

wow! is the word I uttered after watching this movie. This was a gripping tale of one man’s quest for justice for the murder of his wife and daughter. Not only does he have vengeance against the men whom committed the murders, he is out to get the law officials as well. The prosecutor, Nick (Jamie Fox) plays opposite of Gerald Butler, the protagonist of the movie. The corrupted justice system allowed the leader (the one who did the killing) to get a plea bargain if he testified against his accomplice. So in other words, he was able to go free, while his accomplice was sent to death row.
I rooted for Clyde (Gerald Butler) throughout the whole movie. He planned an intricate murder spree of all the officials whom were involved with his case. He said it was going to be “biblical” when he brings it all down. But it was a big let down at the end when Nick turns into a hero, killing Clyde with his own napalm bomb.
I felt like the ending was abrupt and disappointing. I would give this movie an A+, but it gets a B- from me. Despite my disappointment, this was definitely a good movie. Gerald Butler at his best.
LOL.. sorry for the vulgarity. It was so delicious that I had to add that in. I made home made banh mi and spaghetti!
The banh mi was as delicious as the ones in the shop. The spaghetti; I added my own twist.
prepping for the banh mi! vietnamese ham, regular ham, pickle diakon and carrots, cucumber, cilantro, peppers, pate, and mayo.
yummy!!
My special spaghetti. Instead of cheese, I add lots of cilantro and crushed dried peppers. It has mushrooms, onions, and lean ground beef. Yummy.. my mouth is watering again!!
