I'm back... but I'm not the same person I used to be

Wow.. how fast time flies when you're having fun!

It's pretty much been 6 months since I've written in this blog and I'd like to apologize for being away for so long.  Between moving into a new condo, slowly renovating it, xmas vacation in England, and worrying about if I'll still have my job, I've been busy finding what my true calling in life is.

Almost everyday last year, well.. and this year... my friend Mark and I would ask each other, "What is your dream job?", "If you had money to start your own business, what would it be?".  We both have a serious love for interior design and technology so ideas such as opening our own furniture store that also sells home stereo equipment came to mind.  These are all just dreams right now... unless we win this weekend's Super 7 lottery.

But in the meantime, I had to find something that I could seriously do on the side and well... I found it!  I decided to start my own Interior Design Consulting business.  Thanks to my friend Tas, I had my first referral and it's been an exciting 2 months working on this project.  You'll have to wait to hear and see any details of the project until it's completed which will hopefully be April 2009.

But besides having my current job and my Interior Design Consulting business, I still love to blog!  I almost decided to completely shut this food blog down but I thought... you know what... I can't just talk about one thing.  I love too many things to just not share it with people so I decided to revamp this blog into an interior design, photography, food, and technology blog.  I know, it seems like a lot but I can't help it, I love a lot of things!

So anyway, I'm glad to be back and look forward to an amazing 2009!

Welcome to the blog world Martha!

I must be slow but I just discovered that Marth Stewart started her own personal blog in October!

Check it out here.

I love it! It's a personal insight into her life that a lover of reality TV like myself would definitely be chuffed about! You can see her house and things that she does to it, her travels, her pets, etc.

Enjoy!

Another way to cure hiccups

I was reading the Amateur Gourmet's "How To" section on his website and I saw "How to cure hiccups". I thought, "Oh.. I wonder if this is the same way I've heard you can cure hiccups.".

Actually... it wasn't.

For Lou's birthday this summer we went to Brownstone Bistro & Bar. One of our friends had the hiccups and someone heard that drinking water backwards was the sure cure for hiccups. Derek was the demonstrator and I'm sure that people were thinking, "What the hell is this guy doing?" lol It's definitely not something you'd just get up and do at a restaurant (or maybe you would) but it works!

lol... it's an odd thing to do but I swear.. it works like a charm. You just have to be careful that you don't spill water all over the place or laugh while you're trying to drink cuz you know you look ridiculous. lol You don't have to drink a lot. Just a big sip.

Make sure the glass is full to the top. It's easier to drink.

Check out this video on how to works.
