Having lived there for 3 years the tea i often drank which is the green tea. It is wht they serve you when you visit a home or when you eat at a restaurant (big or small). Jasmine has the sweetest fragrance of all the teas. Though they are nice to drink but i get dizzy when I go inside a tea shop because of it’s different smell. :)

Tuesday Toot – May 27, 2008

By , May 27, 2008 2:08 am
At last i got something to toot about this week. I have missed couple of weeks at TT because I just feel there was nothing exciting to share. Now something happened middle of last week (after Tuesday already) so i thought of sharing that experience in TT as my entry today. So my TT this week is HERE. Presently, I can say that most of the money is gone but I felt so light headed, less pressured and have genuine smiles. I still have petty problems but not as much before i paid my bills. I guess living as a single mom with many others depending on you is not an easy job – but this time, at least i have find some ways to help me with my monthly financial struggles.

Any by the way, not all the money went to my bills. I also took a part of the amount to buy me some books for my reading pleasure and also another footwear as posted in here.

Wishing all mommis out there a nice Tuesday!

I often said that am the simplest person on earth and am not vain at all. But if i take quizzes online, there’s that little vain in me and for now I will agree coz am coveting some of the bathroom furniture and even bedroom vanities i saw online at Premiere Vanities. And here’s one:

If my bathroom looks and is as big as this then surely i would work hard to convert it into a modernized bathroom just as you have seen in this picture. I love that cabinet in there for the towels and towelletes and that glass sink, ohhh it looks so dainty and smart. I think it is a smart bathroom fixtures.

At Primiere Vanities, they offer assoorted cheap and expensive bathroom and bedroom furnitures. They also have bedroom cabinets that will fit your budget as well as bathroom cabinets. Checking out their site, you really can’t help to be vain. hehehe. That is honestly speaking. What is nice for now is that they are offering discounted bathroom vanities or furnitures. You can make your order now and pay using your credit cards or Paypal will do.
