Black hottok

I came home earlier than hubby last Friday. When I went to the kitchen, I saw this on the table.



It's an overcooked honey hottok (a Chinese stuffed pancake). The brown hottok became black. How can hubby live without me? hehehe...

When hubby came home, he asked me with smile on his face if I saw the hottok. I said yes and told him that I already threw it away. My hubby said he put it in the toaster and there it was! Dyaraann...The black hottok. Ngeeekkk...

Koreans never eat the black part of the overcooked food. They believe that it can cause cancer. Even when we grilled something like pork or sausages, we always cut with scissors and throw away the dark part. In Korea, eat raw food but not overcooked.

What's the latest issue?

It's so exciting to read and watch the video of the events that Landrover held. And it's great to know all the upcoming events and shows in advance so that we can book earlier for the years best loved Land Rover shows. I feel great whenever I read the news and see the adventures done by the Land Rovers. But I wish I was one of them or at least I was in that place watching their adventures in person. It's so disappointing because I live far away but also grateful because Landrover World always updates me in all the latest events.

Is losing weight is as easy as gaining weight?

While we were having a meeting, my boss complained because we always throw away some cooked rice. Although lunch is free, I don't eat lunch at work. I eat at home with my hubby. My hubby always tells me to put a little rice in my bowl so that I can't eat too much. At work, we have to eat as fast as we can. The reason why have fats around our belly. Hubby always reminds me to eat a little and slowly.

I wasn't fat before. I just gained weight after getting married. I thought losing weight is as easy as gaining weight but that was a big mistake. It's hard to lose weight and the bodyfats. I heard a lot of people going on a surgery just to lose their bodyfats but I'd never do that so I kept searching for a High Performance fat burner and luckily I already found one. Fenphedra is the one because it has no huge list of ingredients masked in a proprietary blend. It contains DiCaffeine Malate, Chocamine TM, Synephrine, Phenylethylamine and Humulus Lupus.

I wanna try this fenphedra because it is one of the best fat burners that have reviewed and pills that can lose 10% of bodyfat in a 3 week period.

Strawberry milk makes our breast big?

I saw on tv that Strawberry Milk can enhance the size of our breast. Is that true? Have you ever tried this? Since I saw that on tv, I always wanted to buy strawberry milk but until I couldn't get enough time to go to the market. Well, as soon as I had time, i'll buy some and i'll let you know guys if there's an effect on me. I have to find out soon if strawberry milk can really make our breast big. hehe..

Lose 12 pounds in just 3 days

It is supposed to be fall now but it's still hot. My hubby always complained of the hot weather and I do too because I'm always jealous of the ladies on the bus who wear sexy clothes. I'm trying to lose weight but I don't know how. I tried different kinds of exercise but I can't see any changes. And now I'm curious about this anoretix which is the most talked about diet pill in the industry. Can you imagine yourself losing 12 pounds in just 3 Days? Wow! This is really a great news for me and for you too if you have the same problem with me.

Anoretix costs $12.40 per bottle to manufacture. Not as expensive as the diet pills that I know that's why it is one of the best priced diet pills in the market. And you can get your money back if you're not satisfied with it. You either lose weight or get your money back? That is so great! Anoretix is one of the diet pills that has the best ingredient with the best guarantee.

Let's try it. If it works for me then I wish it's always summer so that I can wear sexy clothes anytime and anywhere.
