berks-gamol Originally uploaded by annalyn. By Tito Rolly's reckoning, this must be the fifth time we are meeting our fellow bloggers this year and I have to admit...it's getting to be a tradition! This time around, we were set to welcome the lovely Tintin who is based in Texas and migrated to the US when she was 10 years old. Tin regaled us with stories about her life in the Cowboy State with hubby and how big the food servings there are. Likewise, it was my first time to meet the oh-so-charming Toni of "Wifely Steps" and prolific poet Jardine Davies. ... Continue Reading...

Other than this, blogging can be a convenient excuse for having a lousy love life. Or my inability to hog the television because the box is literally owned by my seven-year old son. Plus... if you're on the graveyard shift and the rest of the ... Continue Reading...
A Smokey Mountain homecoming
waving It has been 15 years since I last visited Smokey Mountain. As an aspiring journalist who was still in college, I went here to write stories about people living and getting their sustenance from the dump, families who actually rummaged the garbage for their day's food.The grim images of the mountain would not leave me for years. Forward to 2005: the smelly heap that haunted me a decade back is no more and what greeted me on this Sunday morning were rows upon rows of "low-cost" buildings, children playing in the streets and teenage boys running ...

honeybanana-wthsyrup Originally uploaded by annalyn. I wanted so much to join the monthly food blogging event Sugar High Friday sponsored this July by Nicki over at Bakingsheet with the theme revolving around that sweetest of ingredients "Honey." So what's a harrassed mom like me with little time gotta do? I had no choice but to do a no-sweat but definitely yummy recipe for Honey Banana Pancakes. Who can resist a good pancake for breakfast?
