Yeo Valley Advert - Official Video

The grass is always greener... isn't it? I mean, here I am in America thinking.. how AWESOME is this advertising? I think its the COOLEST thing I've ever seen. Totally lol'ed.

However.. the reason why its cool is because their rapping.. like American style rapping. So.. here I am IN AMERICA thinking that England is cool, and that I"d like to visit there... and hence the circle continues. On. And On.

However.. now I AM kinda frustrated because I'm TOTALLY sold on their product. Milk? Yes please.

UN official denies she has role representing Earth - World news - Europe - msnbc.com

UN official denies she has role representing Earth - World news - Europe - msnbc.com

I absolutely LOVE this article. First the UN announces that they've appointed someone to be the head of their space program- then they have to clarify that she's not the World Ambassador to Outer Space. Liars. We all know whats up. Theres aliens. Admit it. Come on, you know you wanna... because if theres aliens then theres a chance that.... Dr. Who is real.


I have been UTTERLY obsessed with Dr. Who recently (yes, I"m aware that I'm like the last person to discover the show, get off my back) but anyway- I feel better knowing that this nice lady will be there standing in the way when the Daleks attack. What are Daleks you ask? Their these little crafty creatures:

Daleks are like... the WORST aliens out there. No emotions, No Sympathy.. etc. Just little killing jerks. If one shows up- your dead. BAM.







And anyway- i really think that if Dr. Who was real.. it would make my day since I'm obsessed with the main character... OK. Specifically the actor (David Tennant) who was the previous Dr..... Sigh. I think I'm going to go online and buy HAMLET, since he stars in it. I mean, I have NO desire to watch Hamlet. Just a desire to try to get my Dr. Who fix somewhere since he's off the show now. Sigh.

Please don't confuse this for a WEIRD obsession. It's just a normal- isn't he great type of obsession. Which is weird since I don't normally do those. Didn't obsess over the popular kids in school- I never cared who was student body president in college... etc. But... theres just something about his strut... lol.

I feel like this above animal is acting upon my life. I've had several hard things come upon me recently. I had the opportunity to quit my job this week. Two days later, I realized that I needed to go to the doctors (I haven't yet). I"m just wondering what's next?

And then i'm also wondering what lemonaid is gonna come from these lemons. I mean... theres got to be something out there. Should probably start working on that. Get my resume in shape. ha.

Hmmm.. lemon aid. I may go have hot dog on a stick for lunch. DELICIOUS.

Top Five Ten Asian Ingredients Every Cook Should Have: Brian Ray and Yang Huang

Chef Brian Ray's
1. Kewpie Mayo
Kewpie is the most fabulous mayonnaise ever. It’s just awesome. You can fix anything with some of this stuff.
2. 3 Crab brand Fish Sauce
Fish sauce can run the gamut. They can be too strong or too salty. 3 Crab is middle of the road and just has that perfect flavor.
3. Mae Ploy Chili Sauce
It’s a viscous, sweet chili sauce. It will stick to anything. I love to marinate chicken in it and throw it on the grill. The sugars in it caramelize perfectly.
4. Hoisin Sauce
To me, hoisin is the most generic, basic and solidly good sauce you can have. It’s like the KC Masterpiece of Asian food. You can put it almost on everything and it’s good every time.
5. XO Sauce
I refer to this as the truffle oil of Chinatown. If you want to add a unique flavor or finish a sauce, this is what you should use. It has a chili flavor, but with a robust seafood essence. They may cost about the same, but truffle oil is an artificial flavor, and XO is an all natural “luxury” item, made from high-quality ingredients
Yang Huang's List
1. Soy Sauce
I can’t think of an Asian pantry not having soy sauce in it. It’s very common ingredient used in so many dishes. It’s really a must-have.
2. Sweet Rice
I love this type of rice because it’s toothsome. It has a bite and it’s heartier.
3. TYJ brand Spring Roll Wrappers (TYJ brand)
This one’s my favorite because of quality. Spring roll wrappers are great because you can do so much with them. You can make egg rolls, wontons, spring rolls. They add such a nice texture.
4. Chinese Five Spice
When you taste this there’s no doubt that you’re eating something Asian. It’s a unique flavor to our culture. It’s an essential in many dishes such as Peking duck.
5. Oyster Sauce
The beauty of oyster sauce is that if you use it you don’t need to add a lot of different ingredients since its flavor is so unique and complex. It’s like soy sauce, but thicker

need to post more...

This fall I've taken on 9 credits of school (that may become 12.... lets see if i go crazy).. I'm still working full time and I'm now the 1st counselor in my RS presidency. I've come to the conclusion that very few things actually fall into the category of things that I can control. I do my best. I take the knowledge that I'm given and then I sit back and enjoy life.


At work they've decided to not communicate that well with me. My performance is failing. Yet somehow they fail to see the connection between the two. I'm OK with that. I cannot control it.. so there's no other choice really. I can bash my head against a wall... or I can just smile and move on.


I find that seeking out those things in life that bring a smile to my face are now golden. things that allow me to be creative fall into this category. Sewing is pretty high on this list.. and by extention halloween is as well. This year, i'm going to be attempting a steampunk themed outfit. I have a fancy dress i'm gonna alter. I just bought myself a little top hat. I'll post a pic at the side to give ya'll out there an idea of what i'm talking about. Becuase, seriously. If you don't know steampunk... learn about it. It's amazing. Anyway... it's late and i'm done ranting. Here's a stock pic to share my ideas.....
