From Summer November to Insomnia
Hey everyone, how are you?? Did you enjoy your extra hour of sleep (for those in the US). As for me, I did but for some reason I couldn’t sleep now thus I decided to update this blog! I know it’s Sunday night and I even planned to get up early tomorrow and work out but don’t think it’ll happen.
Sometimes I do have this insomnia when I can’t just fall asleep because of my snoring hubby. Anyway let’s recap a bit, shall we?
So we had all these candies lying around since nobody came on Halloween day. I didn’t have any of these, but my hubby, mom and brother been nibbling on those a lot. Good thing I didn’t have much sweet tooth.
Unless it involves Loacker Dark Chocolate! I can hardly resist these!
And I finally tried to strain my yogurt like Tra did so it became creamier! No more watery yogurt for me!
Thanks Tra for the tip! š
I don’t have Tofu Press as many other bloggers who like the tofu to be nice and firm. Heck, just prepared a big dish and put something extra heavy on top of the tofu, you get your DIY Tofu Press!
For a little change of my usual toasted wheat bread with PB, oats or cereal, I ate purple yam for b-fast instead.
I don’t usually spend $$ for b-fast but I’ve been having this Subway coupon for a while and it’s getting closer to the expiration date. I got the Egg white Wheat muffin breakfast sandwich.
My impression? I’m glad I always make my own b-fast The sandwich just tasted meh for me. It was pretty bland without the addition of mayo or cheese. The steak meat was kinda salty and so did the egg white. The wheat muffin was a bit chewy prolly because I ate it 20 mins later after I got to the office.
Our SoCal weather has been really weird! I call it Summer in November. It was 80-90Ā°F in November and this is in the US!
But I will miss this daylight home commute after the time change though.
While shopping our grocery this weekend, I saw this lopsided apple and thought it was cute.
I know we just got 4 kitchen rugs last week, but after seeing these we couldn’t resist to get it. It’s more durable, bigger and not to mention it’s easier to clean! Just wipe with damp cloth and be done with it! Dirts won’t stuck on it as much and it’s made of rubber/PVC.
It was my mom’s birthday today (technically it should be on the 8 but it’s already Nov 8 in Asia. Since she was born in Asia, we use Asian time) so I decided to take her out for a little shoe shopping. But instead getting the shoes, she found some winter clothing. There weren’t much shoes that she liked.
And while driving earlier, I notice the weather might be cooler again. I heard rain is coming.
Questions of the day:
1. What do you do when you can’t sleep?
You know what I do..haha!
2. Does your significant other or whoever share the same room with you snore? What do you do?
Mine does! Usually the remedy is I go to sleep first. There are times when I’m tired enough I still be able to go to sleep even though he’s kinda snoring.

Really? No one came to your house? Good thing you didn’t get the ultra-pack of candies! šÆ I like how you have choco pie in there š That makes me feel Asian too lol
I agree. Getting the excess water out of tofu = you can totally do it yourself. Yeay for saving money! š
I was always wondering if their breakfast sammie was good. I guess it doesn’t meet the requirement of the Asian mouths. š
I wish the weather was like that over here! It’s so cold! (below 49 degrees – what?!?!?!) I miss my warm sunshine! š
I have to say, the apple IS cute š
Oh well. You got a better product š What did you do with your old rugs? Did you return them?
You’re so nice to get your mom clothes! (is it an Asian thing where they don’t like the cold?? If it is then, that is SOOOOOOOOO me!! I HATE being cold!!) š
Yeay for Asian bakery!!! I totally get what you mean; their cakes + a aren’t as sweet as American cakes! š
Hey hey, is it possible for me to do a guest post on your blog? My blog (especially http://mssquared.wordpress.com) isn’t being recognized too much, and that’s making me sad… š
Yup, I’m glad I convinced K not to get a bigger pack..lol anyway either he or my bro will finish it (mostly my bro- that guy has some kind of sweet tooth for chocolate). That choco pie was his, given by the people at the health clinic. š
Maybe we should switch places huh? I like cold weather vs hot and dry haha…or maybe because I haven’t experienced a really cold weather like your place.
For the old rugs, we just distributed to other rooms (like the entrance, the guest bathroom etc) They look decent enough to become a floor accent.
My mom lives in tropical weather country so she’s afraid of cold. I thought Japan was as cold as here too or even colder?
Really?? you want to do a guest post at my blog??? I’m so honored!! XD But I don’t think my blog has that many readers as others though. I don’t mind if you want to š and I’ve never had any guest post before so not sure how to do that. you gotta teach me š
Happy Birthday to your Mom! That was sweet of you to pay fir those clothes. My mother in-law is really afraid of the cold too. After moving here from HK, they decided to move to Vancouver cause it’s much warmer there.
Those are great for the kitchen as they’re “wipeable”. The colour does go well also. I have the same problem as you, hubby is a big snorer…lol. I’m usually watching TV in the room before he sleeps, and when he comes in and falls asleep I can’t even hear the TV anymore. Lol. So I just shut off the TV and go to sleep too. I’m too lazy to watch in the livingroom.
