What are the ways to beat the summer heat? There’s firing up the barbecue and grilling pizza, dogs, and burgers. Why not make a tasty mocktail and sip it outside on a hot day? You can also go on a walking tour of your garden or crazily run through sprinklers in the village park. Another idea is to hostage your nephew or niece’s tablets or gadgets and teach them how to play tag, hide and seek, Frisbee or have a water fight. Fill up water balloons and water guns or use your garden hose to make a backyard water war. I’m sure tons of laughter will ensue.
In my case, the combination of creativity and love for food make for a great memory to bank too. Thresh out the richness of ideas and push out originality of thinking. There’s always a story coming alive in your head and hands, constantly composing and creating. Rediscover yourself this summer.
I received a beautiful package delivered to my doorsteps. It was a blue box shaped like an attaché case with a gold velvet handle bearing the Monde MIY brand. My nephew, “baby popeye,” enjoyed lugging it around. I opened it and was amazed by the whole kit inside.
There were compartments for containers holding the toppers, neatly labeled as candy sprinklers and such. On the left side, there are baking and decorative paraphernalia to complete the experience.
On the right side, 2 packs of Monde Cream Puffs are placed. The toppers include candy sprinklers, candy pellets, cornflakes, mini-marshmallows, crushed grahams, choco candies, coco jam, peanut butter, choco chips, and crushed choco cookies to dress our favorite Monde Special Mamon.

The Appren-tease in Jesse James Blindsided Sandra Bullock
I really liked Apprentice Celebrity Season 1 a lot and loved the clever Piers Morgan and his biting (but objective) tongue in it. I caught several reruns of Apprentice Celebrity Season 2 and was intrigued by it despite not having as many strategic players as the first one. Jesse James, 40, had a cool stance during the whole season and maintained his stand on not using his wife’s connections to get more money for their team projects.
Sandra Bullock, 45, was freshly minted with the coveted Oscar best actress awards several weeks back. Nowadays, she’s back in the limelight but not for her acting chops in Blind Side, but because of Jesse James’ infidelity. Not only with one woman –but with FOUR others.
The news broke when Michelle McGee told In Touch, she and James had unprotected sex once a week during their 11-month romance. Soon after, more women came out dishing about their affairs with James.
Sandra Bullock broke her silence to People Magazine and denied reports that there’s a sex tape with her and husband Jesse in it. “There is no sex tape. There never has been one and there never will be one.” Other than that statement, Bullock has remained quiet about her current relationship status with James. Many speculate that she will file for a divorce.
Meanwhile, Jesse James also denied Internet rumors of a sex tape. He said in a statement, “There is only one person to blame for this whole situation, and that is me. It’s because of my poor judgment that I deserve everything bad that is coming my way. This has caused my wife and kids pain and embarrassment beyond comprehension and I am extremely saddened to have brought this on them. I am truly very sorry for the grief I have caused them. I hope one day they can find it in their hearts to forgive me.”
His lawyer reports that James is struggling to get back into Sandra’s good graces. “When all is said and done, he wants the same people who were living in his house before all this happened to still be living there,” his attorney, Joe Yanny, said in a statement Monday. “And he wants to save his marriage with the woman he loves more than anything in his life.”
Ricky Martin is Gay
After so many years of keeping his personal life private, Latin pop star Ricky Martin admits in his book that he is gay. In his official Website, Martin says that writing his memoir and his twins are what made him go public about his homosexuality.
“I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man. I am very blessed to be who I am.” I think not a lot of people were surprised but it’s still a brave thing to come out in the open.
So Mr. PJ, when are you writing your book? 🙂
