Huge Crush on a Sports Drinks Model

January 14th, 2012

When I was 18, I had a huge crush on a sports drinks model. He was a famous swimmer but I knew him best as the boy next door. He lived next door to the apartment I used to rent while studying at a university. He was really handsome and fit. I had a poster of him pasted on my cabinet and a small picture of him on my bedside table.

When I first met him, he was just an ordinary guy who was extraordinarily handsome and lived next door . I had illusions of him becoming my boyfriend, us getting married and starting a family (Yes, it reached that point).

I had no idea he was a swimmer though, I always thought that the reason he leaves his apartment early was to go to work. I only learned that he was a swimmer when I saw his first sport drink billboard at the mall. That was also the day I learned his name because I never had the guts to speak to him whenever we see each other. Later my crush did not only model for sports drinks brands but also for other products like cologne and watches. I hope one day, I’ll get to know him.

Fight Cancer Outbreak with Bananas

December 29th, 2011

Fruits and Vegetables - 999 Coloring PagesThe number of cancer cases is on the rise in the whole world. One of the main causes of the disease is attributed to the lifestyle and types of food humans consume. One of the fruits that are effective in containing the spread of cancer is the banana. People should practice placing a banana stand in their houses to easily remind them to eat fruits all the time. Fruit stands can be placed in the kitchen or over the dining table.

Together with other fruits, bananas have the enzymes and minerals that prevent diseases from affecting human cells. Fruits must be included in the proper diet. They are not capable of curing serious diseases but they are effective in keeping cells in top shape to deter most bacteria and viruses. Fruits and vegetables are the most natural foods available to man. People are healthier when fruits and vegetables are the only foods that are available.

Need a Butcher in Hamilton

November 17th, 2011

Does anyone know of a butcher Hamilton has? I do not like going to the store to by my meat, I like it to come fresh from the butcher, though I have been having trouble locating one. I just moved here, and really don’t know that many people, so I thought that using the internet would be my best bet. I miss going to the butcher with my baby every day and picking out the best selection of meat that we would cook for dinner. In our old place, I would get up at 8:00am, enjoy a steaming cup of coffee, feed my child breakfast, and we would take a walk to the butcher shop. We would find our meat, and go home and spend some time cooking. It was so nice and cozy being able to enjoy that luxury, and I miss it all the time, even my child will still ask if we are going to the butcher!

Make Your Own Shrimp Ceviche Recipe

November 17th, 2011

Shrimp CevicheShrimp ceviche requires a lot of people to become creative when they make their own recipe. It’s always a good idea to make your own recipe so that you will be able to use your favorite ingredients as well as being able to add your preferred ingredients. That would allow you to arrive with a good final product. If you rely on foods that were made by another chef then it is possible the chef could add some ingredients that are bad to your health. If you make your own recipe, you will be able to not add the ingredients that you think shouldn’t be added to the recipe. You also have the option to prepare these recipes for special occasions if you think they are good enough. If you think a lot of people would like the meal then there is no reason not to cook it for special occasions.

False Advertising Pur Crf 950z

November 11th, 2011

These pitchers arrived very quickly and brand new. I recommend this product, it might be time for a change to PUR if you don’t like the taste of reverse osmosis bottled water. The PUR product makes water taste a lot better than the “other” brand. And Amazon as usual was perfect – quick shipping and simple purchase. They fit nicely in my refrigerator and my water tastes great. I needed the one which goes in water cooler and it has the red indicator switch. A calender sticker doesn’t know the distinction between a single user, a couple like my spouse and me, and a thirsty group of six. Idea is nice. I haven’t had time to investigate the problem but did read somewhere that the manufacturer (Procter and Gamble) made some kind of technical error within the product and there are none available on the market now. These filters couldn’t be simpler to use. I’m not sure if I got a poor batch, but if they next batch I purchase is like this I’m definitely switching to something with a little more stating power.

Building Your Own Kegerator

October 24th, 2011

I just built my own kegerator, thanks to some helpful tips and guidance from Fridge For Kegerator. After reading their suggestions on deciding what I needed, what to look for in a kegerator and the parts I needed – I got down to it. It was a pretty easy one week-end project so it can be done pretty quickly if you are at all handy. I’m a do-it-yourself kind of guy so I really enjoyed making my own kegerator. Sure – I could have just bought one – heaven knows there are many on the market and there’s a wide range of prices from just over a hundred on eBay to fifteen hundred or more for a fancy high tech one. For me, it’s the challenge figuring things out that made me want to build my own. And it complements my hobby of home brewing quite nicely. Who knows maybe one day I’ll have my own micro-brewery.
