Push Up Bras, Spanx, High Heels and Fake Lashes?

I've been getting the BLENDER magazine for months now and have been dumping every issue in the garbage. I don't know exactly how I ended up subscribing to it, but I have an inkling that it was from the years of untouched mileage I had with NWA that was overturned into magazine subscriptions instead. I still wonder why I chose it then. Maybe I thought it was some kitchen accessory magazine?!

So last week when I had a few measly moments to myself, I picked up the magazine and decided to at least read before I dump another issue. Only then did I learn that it is a music magazine.

Even so, there wasn't really anything in that magazine that I got interested with. Probably because it was geared towards the young and hip. And I am so far from that.

But still, I gave it a another chance. I kept reading.

Nothing.

But there is one thing that caught my attention and even left me laughing. A page section of advertisements called BLENDER BUYS. In there listed:

• Keyboard for Blondes - huh?
  
• Bigger is Better Enlargement Formula
  
• Some sort of Pheromone spray that fuels attraction
  
• A shoe insert to make him look taller
• An electronic brush that claims to promote hair growth
• And an Indie Fashion clothing for the big and tall

I was giggling as I read them to my husband and exclaimed that "these ad products are for Men who has serious self-esteem issues, or just plain weirdos". And talk about "deceiving people into believing what you're not".

And he said, "well isn't it the same thing as push-up bras, spanx, high heels and fake lashes?!" (All of which I use) HAH! So true!

Sushi, Anyone?

Yes, yes...I'm alive. Been awhile, I know. Writing in my own blog had to take a backseat from other important stuff which are mainly about family.

And speaking of family, check out what my 6 year old came home with today. Sushi craft complete with wasabi, nori, and a set of chopsticks! I had to take pictures of his class project because it was so adorable. The wasabi was made out of clay and paint and the chopsticks were rolled from a cardboard.

As I was taking his picture, he started acting like a sushi chef asking (complete with the accent and all) "want some sushi?" and that made me laugh so hard! He's always been the comic in this family.

So you want some? Hey, they may taste like cardboard...but at least they look great, don't they? I mean that's how my regular cooking taste like anyway. Yeah really! What can I say? Cooking is just not my cup of tea...or bowl of rice.... Or bowl of sugar? Going with the blog theme here. Ok, whatever.

So what else is going on with me? As usual, I have gotten myself involved in more projects. It's an exciting project for a very well known site that I will start writing/blogging for soon. And it starts with a Y and ends with an O. And it's not Google. lol...Anyway, more details soon on my next post. Promise!

By the way, what's your favorite sushi? And where is your favorite place to get sushi?
