Seeing Sweaters, Accounting, and Keane

Everyone but me is wearing a sweater at our house tonight. They say it's chilly - and it is - but I like it. I even have the fan pointed directly, err, at an angle facing my bed so I'll be all-huddled under the covers later -- almost freezing. LOL I did not sleep well at all last night because my feet were cold but I don't care.

Also, I finally finished the in-house accounting books as of June, sent off the statements too. I'm working on July now but I find that I do not have all the information I need just yet -- oops, another delay! Oh well, it is what it is. :)

Seeing the MTV video of the song, Perfect Symmetry, by Keane made me curious about their albums. So, I've been listening to Hopes and Fears (their first) and I've decided that I want to get it. Yes, Keane interests me. Since it was released four years ago (2004) it's going to be cheaper too, I think. I hope that they've got it in stores here now.

I've looked at their official website and it's like a little over US $8 if you order from there. But considering the shipping costs (which I don't think the $8 covers) and the time it'll take to arrive (it'll be coming from the UK)... hmmm... I don't know. It's probably better to buy it here. I don't know. There are noticeable differences between releases from different countries, you know? Like if it were enhanced (with extra features like opendisc.net or bonus tracks) or not. Well, whatever - as of this moment - I prefer to have an actual, physical CD that I can see (and hold and smell!?! LOL!) if I can help it. :)

Cold, Windy, Audacity, Congee

Lovely weather now. It's cold - not too cold that I have to bundle up - it's nice. It's windy outside too. Mosquitoes in my room are not afraid. It used to be that when you wave a hand over one that's "dining" on you, it would fly away. Now, when I feel an itch on my leg and put a hand over it ever so calmly, I squash the bug. Gross. Here was my dinner yesterday, chicken congee or arroz caldo . Suitable dish during cold weather 'cause it's filling and the spiciness from the ginger hits the spot.

December in food pics 2023

  Chicken Nuggets (Purefoods Chicken Breast Nuggets) Yum with BBQ sause. Sliced mango yung nasa taas, masarap din, matamis. Homemade Baked Macaroni Ordered from a neighbor for noche buena. It has beef, mushrooms and bechamel sauce. Still yum. Second year in a row na since  2022 noche buena macaroni . Pork tocino and scrambled egg (Pampanga's Best Original Tocino) with suka, syempre. Dry yung eggs huhu. Sinangag sana yung rice pero bagong saing kasi. Dapat sa fried rice yung day-old na maalsa para buhaghag. Speaking of... tagalog ako pero yung term na "maalsa" sa bigas, recently ko lang naintindihan 😁

Mango season and food pics

Image
 It's mango season! Lots of sweet ripe mangoes for sale around us 😋  Mango Slices, Pork Tocino + Vinegar Sawsawan My current favorite bigas  variety is sinandomeng. It is buhaghag but still soft, but not all sinandomeng  are the same. I prefer the one by Golden Grain's. Mango Slices, Beef Tapa + Salt on the Side I asked for salt. Maybe I'm having too much sweet fruit.  Mango slices, Purefoods hotdogs + UFC Banana Catsup I prefer Purefoods Cocktail Hotdogs compared to the regular sized Tender Juicy. Two weeks straight of sweet mangoes is cloying (but good for digestion!). Will hold off buying them for now.
