Katie Vasquez @NJChicaa It's a sour fruit that grows around these parts. It's part of the cuisine in South and Southeast Asia, but even I don't often see the actual fruit in supermarkets. This can also be turned into candy. If you are ever in an Asian grocery store you...

Katie Vasquez It's 6:25 am October 25th here in the Philippines, so I'll just share about dinner last night. My husband cooked a dish called sinigang. It is a very brothy soup with pork and vegetables. It had okra, water spinach, eggplant, string beans, green chili, and...

Katie Vasquez What kind of animals are there where your son lives? Here in our place in Las Piñas, Philippines, bats are eating my husband's plants. I wonder why on earth there are bats in the city, and I wonder if they don't have taste buds because they have no problem...

My son arrived early this afternoon. After I closed the gate, he exclaimed that his students from his advisory class who played chess and scrabble won first place in the recently concluded Intramurals. My son coached his...

Katie Vasquez I have very fond memories of teachers who coached and accompanied me in inter-school competitions. I'm sure these students are also very fond of their teacher, your son. Certainly, you are delighted and proud to have raised a wonderful young man who is a...

I was not able to document the growth of my older dog Soju and I only have a few pictures of her as a pup, so I really wanted to take a monthly photo of our puppy Banchan. (Her name is a Korean word meaning side dish, and the...

Katie Vasquez Having a dog really takes up one's time, so it is not recommended for busy people who are always out of the house. The dog would be bored and lonely, and would most likely make a mess.

Katie Vasquez It is really a commitment to take care of pets, so getting a dog is not recommended if one doesn't have enough time. Your decision not to get one now is just right. Dogs have to be fed, bathed, and taken out for walks. They need proper food, vaccines, and vet...

Katie Vasquez For a few years I was with an aunt who bought tabloids every day, so it was the only kind of reading material available. Prior to that period, I remember my family having a subscription to a rather popular and somewhat respectable national broadsheet. In both...

I love black and white photography. The mood a photo takes dependent on the range of just two tones of colors has always intrigued me. Especially when it comes to people. It can create moods of sadness, pain, joy,...

Katie Vasquez The photo you took of Squidward makes me think of my youth that is long gone. I have no particular affinity for the show as I was already in my teens when it aired, but I often saw it in passing, frequent enough to know the names of many characters. This photo...

Katie Vasquez That's cute! I remember when I was in high school, for every female teacher who was celebrating her birthday, the official greeting on the bulletin board was "Happy 18th Birthday!" If you came closer to the bulletin board you'd see an equation indicating the...

I prefer walking to the neighbourhood shopping centre to do most of my shopping and seldom do shopping online. But it's not that I am totally averse to shopping online. What about you? Which are your favourite e-shopping sites?

Katie Vasquez Hardly ever, but that is also because I rarely go shopping. Now, online shopping sites don't interest me at all. When I was young, I liked browsing stuff on eBay as well as shopping sites on the now-defunct platform Multiply, but now at the age of 33 I am more...
