off for some crabs!

No, not in Maryland, just at Joe's Crab Shack (South Plainfield). One of my sisters went there a few weeks ago and insisted to check the place out. So, my husband had to drive almost two hours to the shack, I thought we would get lost, but we found our way. Almost the whole family went: my mother, my dh, my dd, my two sisters and my brother in law; my other sister had to go to work.

I kinda regretted what I ordered (The Orleans), it was due to a fact that I was curious what a crawfish is. I should have gotten some crabs myself! The place was packed, but we had our table  right away. The food were great and the place was entertaining, wait staff were pretty nice- they actually danced/performed to this song on this video below, it was pretty catchy, and no this is not the Joe's Crab Shack that we went.

my dd turned six months!

AX just turned six months on February 18, oh, how time flies! One of my sisters who's also one of the godmothers got her a cake. Do you think the cake is too much? It's from Waldbaums by the way.

cake plus palabok, chicken, and rib tips

look what I have retrieved (for Filipino-Bisaya only)...

I found this email in one of my folders in one of my few accounts. I think the sender (my friend) found it in one of his files and decided to send it to me? This AOL account does not exist anymore-do you still remember those AOL Chat days? As I was reading this, it made me smile and laugh, and it made me think like "what the heck?"

Noticed the highlighted part I took out people's names and also the sender. Sorry for the non Bisaya readers, I was actually writing a guy friend (family friend) of mine back in the days- almost twelve years ago?! about this guy I met, who was my boyfriend at that time, and is now my husband of ten years!

HAPPY TEN YEARS BEB!

I LOVE YOU & A.X.!

had my abdominal sonogram...

I did not expect to see the ultrasound machine again this soon. I thought maybe I will see it two years from now, but things happen for a reason. While the technician was scanning or taking pictures of my abdomen, I was thinking why the people at Highway Imaging did not tell me to do my breathing exercises. The lady (technician) keep telling me  to hold my breath for how many times, maybe like 20x or more! I still hear her request in her Russian accent, "hold it hold it" -she was a nice lady though. Should have I known about the procedure knowing I'm an RN? All I remember about holding your breath in nursing school was when doing a liver biopsy. Have to find out the result from my physician in a few days. Shoud I hold my breath until then?

early Spring it is!?

That's what Staten Island Chuck predicted that winter will be over in two weeks.

It's Groundhog Day, there is very little science to this phenomenom, and the public is smart enough to know that. However, this is something that people find entertaining, which is why it is followed.
