Finding the Best Places to Stay at for Your Luxury Escapes in the United States

Finding the perfect luxury vacation club does not always mean you have to go out of the country. You don’t even have to look far because the United States hosts various hotels that offer the best luxury escapes. Here are some of them:A truly vintage experience at the Wentworth Mansion in Charleston, South Carolina. This charming hotel was once the not-so-humble abode of Francis Silas Rogers and his family in 1886. During the 90s, it was bought by Richard Widman, and because of that, we now have this 21-room hotel that will take us back in time with its old-fashioned yet sophisticated interiors. Spending a few night in the Wentworth will truly make you appreciate the classics with its elegant chandeliers, antique firesides, and delicate windows.

Having the best of your luxury escapes at Waldorf Astoria in Orlando Florida. One of the reasons why guests flock to this hotel is mostly because of its strategic location near Disney World, but it is important not to overlook the outstanding features of the luxury hotel itself. Golf aficionados will surely have the time of their lives here with its 18-hole golf course. If you’re not into Disney or golf, there is still so much to love about this hotel, because there are arrays of world-class restaurants to try, and their guest rooms might just be your definition of “perfect!”An escape from the city within the city at The Towers in New York, New York.Like we mentioned earlier, your ideal luxury escape could just be (literally) around the corner. You will definitely see this busy city in different light after a few days at The Towers with its amazing view of the Big Apple, and unquestionably outstanding rooms and services.A glimpse of the fast lane at The Peninsula in Beverly Hills, California. If you’ve always dreamed of stepping into your favorite celebrities’ shoes and live their lives for a day, then you are certainly getting more than what you wished for with a few days’ stay at The Peninsula. Their five-diamond luxury guest rooms are something to look forward to, but what really gives the luxurious feel are the chauffeured car transports, indulgent meals at the most prominent restaurants, and a relaxing afternoon at the spa. And oh, there’s also a chance that you might bump into a celebrity on your way to the pool!

Living the Southern comfort at Hermitage Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. The Hermitage Hotel might be one of the most popular wedding venues in the state, but it also attracts all kinds of guests looking for luxury escapes, and all for good reasons. Aside from the fact that the hotel gives off that whole “homey” southern atmosphere, it also presents its guests with a heritage of hospitality that they have taken pride in for over a hundred years.

Billy Club 2013 - REVIEW

Aaaaaand, we're back! I would like to give you some fluff and bullshit about why I haven't reviewed anything lately. I'd like to use the excuse that I've been to busy but that's not true. The truth is, for a while, independent films just beat me down. Most that we were getting were lackadaisical and uninspired and quite frankly, weren't even worth wasting the time to review them. I pride myself on being brutally honest when it comes to reviewing and it started feeling more like I was just beating a dead horse. However, I am also stubborn as hell and refuse to let the website that I put so much effort into for so many years simply dry up and die. So.... onward and upward!!

Fifteen years after a gruesome triple homicide devastated their Little League baseball team, four friends (Erin Hammond, Marshall Caswell, Mathew Dunlop, Nick Sommer) reunite to commemorate their dead coach and fallen teammates. A mystery unfolds as the secrets from their past return to haunt them and a vengeful killer, hidden by an antique umpire's mask, returns to even the score.

I have to admit, I didn't have high hopes for this one. For some reason, the artwork and title of the film didn't give me a great feeling. Yes, I'm a judgmental bitch, BUT, I am completely ecstatic to say that I was wrong.

The film is well shot and the acting, for the most part, is on point and much better than you normally see in lower budget indie films. However, the film is not without it's flaws. There are some flashbacks that drag on a little long but are needed to round out the story. As always, I appreciate the use of practical effects and the majority of them were well done, there was a face smash effect that blew me away, but there were also some that fell a little short (final scene). However, none of those things take away from the overall watchability of the film. Written and directed by Nick Sommer and Drew Rosas, Billy Club is an old fashioned slasher with a little bit of comedy mixed in to make it an enjoyable ride.

Besetment Coming to DVD September 5

Besetment won first place at the recent Rhode Island Vortex Horror Film Festival.

Woods, Sonya Davis, Max Gutfreund, Liam O'Sruitheain, Sadndra Doolittle, Tanner McCullough, Ashley Layton, Nona Bigham, and Edward Simper in a Brad Douglas film.

TheBloodShed Launches New PPV Horror Site

Johnny Macabre and TheBloodShed have announced the launch of www.IBleedIndie.com - a first of its kind VOD website dedicated to promoting American indie and international horror films.

There are many indie film makers who don't want to deal with sales agents and distributors. They choose instead to self distribute. And this choice says nothing of the quality of the films themselves as there are some amazing horror movies released in this manner. But, while it leaves the film makers with full control of their movie, it also severely limits what they can do with it. One area it limits is their VOD options. A self distributed film's only real options before now have been creator-operated Youtube or Vimeo channels.

This is where IBleedIndie.com comes in. The site offers a PPV platform for indie horror films, all the while allowing the film makers to keep all rights to their film in non-exclusive agreements where they receive 90% of all revenue from rentals.

We launched with over 100 feature films with more on the way and a good handful of short films as well. Features on our site rent for 72 hour periods for $3, shorts for $1. Select films are also available for digital download.

We have films from literally dozens of amazing indie horror film makers and have even gotten on board several indie-friendly distributors like Wild Eye Releasing, Brink Vision, Self Destruct, Cinema Epoch, SGL, and Artsploitation. Titles include: Japan's HORROR STORIES, AMITYVILLE: THE VANISHING POINT, the Romanian shocker BE MY CAT: A FILM FOR ANNE, the Slovenian KILLBILLIES and the American ALL HELL BREAK LOOSE.

You can keep up to date by following us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/IBleedIndieVOD/ or going to the website at www.ibleedindie.com

Stray 2015 - REVIEW by Jay Pendlebury

I have always felt that if a movie can stay in your thoughts after the viewing it has succeeded. Horror movies in particular I think are successful this way. I have movies on my must watch list for those who haven't seen them that I hesitate to re-watch myself because of this reason. They affected me, stayed in my head and possibly disturbed me somewhat. I appreciate the ones that elicit this reaction if it is integral to the plot. Yes gore and violence for gore and violence's sake are fun too for us horror fans but something that is beyond eye candy is needed now and then to feed the soul.

2015's Stray directed by Nena Eskridge is not my definition of a horror movie. It is however an extremely honest and sincere effort that will elicit feelings from the viewer. This, as I said previously, falls under my definition of successful as a film. It is an extremely slow burning plot that builds and builds to an even more extremely sad ending. I hesitate to call this movie depressing because that suggests its of poor quality. Depressing maybe the most accurate description though. While not an overly shocking ending or horror movie gory payoff at the end, it creeps up and "gets you in the feels" for lack of a better description.

Stray centres on Jennifer, played by Gabrielle Stone. She's homeless and we see her do what she must to survive and get what she wants. Jennifer is a complex character who reveals more and more of herself emotionally as the story goes on. Gabrielle does an excellent job as she shows us every side to herself, changing how you feel about her every step of the way. Once her basic needs are fulfilled she attempts to fill other voids in her life. Such as a relationship

She stumbles upon Greg, played by Dan McGlaughlin, and once her sights on set on him, nothing gets in her way. Greg's girlfriend Sarah (Samantha Fairfield Walsh) see's what Jennifer is attempting but becomes powerless to stop her. Greg's mother Edna (Arita Trahan) sees something else in Jennifer, and relates to her somewhat. This all leads to the characters getting caught in Jennifer's wave of destruction whether intended or not. I hesitate to say much more at risk of spoiling your own feelings and opinions of Jennifer. She ranges from "Fatal Attraction" to relatable and the key to the plot is the discovery along the way. Her story is what leads me to my depressing description when I could relate to Jennifer's hopelessness in the end.

The film itself is of great quality. It does not feel like an indie picture at all. I did find the slow burning plot almost painful at times but like any good picture everything is justified by the end. Every actor does an excellent job with their role. Nena Eskridge does a great job of directing and gets some great camera angles and shots. I wouldn't call this a must watch movie and quite frankly if you are feeling sad or depressed I would encourage you not to watch it because it is so successful at taking you on Jennifer's journey. I think this was a very well done movie and is worth a watch. Don't expect true horror but please keep an open mind and be wary of who you help along the way.

Ron Saul: Father of the Pittuba

I'm a tuba player in addition to being a uke nut, so I have a soft spot in my heart for Ron Saul. He not only makes sweet ukuleles, he's invented what amounts to a musical whoopie cushion. Check out this article from the SLO Tribune. And don't miss the audio slide show, which covers Ron and his creations, from the sublime to the ridiculous (in that order). Link

Pittuba playing seems a strange thing to do almost as strange as my sister Lynne's determination to get tunes out of a duck quacker. I have introduced her to the uke so I hope there 'll be less quacking.

Demand For Dredging Is Growing Steadily With Rise In Requirements From Renewable Energy Sectors : Report Fact.MR

Demand For Dredging Is Growing Steadily With Rise In Requirements From Renewable Energy Sectors : Report Fact.MR
Dredging Market
Dredging equipment manufacturers experienced sluggish growth in the past year due to low trade activities owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, the market is on its way to recovery, and expected to grow steadily over the coming years.

Despite sluggish returns in 2020 due to unprecedented COVID-19 outbreak, the global dredging market is expected to report 3.3% YOY growth in 2021, a significant improvement over 3.5% y-o-y exhibited in 2020, finds Fact MR in a new study. The overall growth outlook remains positive, especially as applications in trade activity, maintenance, and urban development among others continue to rise. The market will vastly gain with demand in government sector rising. Fact MR in a new study has forecast government to account for over 43% of overall share through 2031.

Besides this, demand in the oil and gas industry will continue rising through the course of the report’s forecast period. According to the “Oil 2020- Analysis”, published in March 2020 by the International Energy Agency (IEA), the global oil production capacity is expected to rise by 5.9 mb/d through 2025. It was also stated in the report that supply from Non Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (Non-OPEC) will rise by 4.5 mb/d. With oil and gas production and consumption poised to surge, dredging applications will potentially soar in the near future.

Key Takeaways

  • Market outlook continue to remain strong over next 10 years to register 3.3%% CAGR between 2021 and 2031
  • US will account for 82% of North America market in 2021 and outlook remains positive
  • Growth forecasts for Italy and Germany remains positive as the Europe market recovers at a moderate pace post COVID-19
  • U.K. will register 0.8% YOY growth between 2021 and 2031
  • China, Japan, and South Korea are expected to be bright spots strengthening growth prospects in East Asia

Innovations will pave way for growth in future. Like in other industries, the dredging market will witness uptick in smart technology deployment aimed at improving operational efficiency. The advent of automated dredging monitoring systems for instance will result in higher adoption across various industries. Especially soaring ecological concerns will push innovations in dredging technologies,” said a lead analyst at Fact MR.

Slow and Steady Recovery Expected Post COVID-19

Unprecedented recession caused by the COVID-19 outbreak caused massive production crunches. Coupled with this, restrictions imposed on travel and tourism and disruptions registered in the oil and gas industry resulted in negative growth. Fortunately, shoring up oil prices in recent months have helped in recovery of the dredging market. The contemporary decline in oil prices akin to the Great Depression in 2008 posed considerably challenges to market players.

Nonetheless, recovery 2021 onwards, following the resumption of exploration activities will aid overall expansion in the coming years. For instance, some of the major oil exploration projects include Rovuma LNG Project worth US$ 33 billion and Alaska LNG Liquefaction Project valued at US$ 43 billion. Also growth will continue due to consistently rising government requirement. For example the Dredging Corporation of India (DCI) is aiming at chartering its cutter suction dredgers and vessels trailer suction hopper dredgers on a long term basis, which is expected to bolster the dredging industry. Impetus from government will enable the dredging market to gain momentum in the near future.

Don't Be Shy [Clean]

QPR vs Watford Match Preview: A Bright Start Crucial for the Hosts

Although the two week international break was far from dull, it never promises quite as much entertainment as a weekend of Championship action.

Following two five-goal thrillers in two games prior to the break, Watford fans will likely agree with that statement more than anyone. But Vladimir Ivić is keen to see his side cut out the mistakes that have led to the goals conceded against both Stoke and Coventry. He'll no doubt be concerned that defenders Craig Cathcart and William Troost-Ekong, and Wing-Back Ken Sema could miss out as a result of their late returns to London Colney, but with the strength in depth boasted by the Hornets, and the introduction of five substitutes from the EFL, that shouldn't cause too much concern.

Ismaïla Sarr also featured for Senegal against Guinea-Bissau, and although it's been almost a week since his last game, Ivić would be forgiven for preferring the likes of Andre Gray, João Pedro and Troy Deeney, who have trained consistently with the squad since last Wednesday.

One player who definitely won't feature is Will Hughes. The midfielder was ruled out of the Coventry win with a knock, and it now appears the injury is worse than expected. The Hornets Head Coach sounded slightly nervous about him, stating that the scan results still hadn't come through, but there appeared to be some optimism that the 25 year-old will be back fairly soon (1-2 weeks).

Despite some players returning from spells on the sidelines, Head Coach Vladimir Ivić still has injury concerns.

Other injury news:

Stipe Perica (Back in 3-4 days, but unavailable for this weekend)

Marc Navarro (Unknown, unlikely we'll see him this year)

Isaac Success (No news, expected back late January/early February)

Adam Masina (Surprisingly, he will return to training in early December. Doubtful he'll feature until the New Year though.)

Tom Dele-Bashiru (Surgery was successful, beginning rehabilitation).

Troy Deeney and Ben Foster are 100% fit.

 The Opposition

Those who recall Watford's previous encounters with Queens Park Rangers may remember their dominance, attacking quality and tendency to best the Hornets in this division. The Hoops even won the League Title at Vicarage Road, as former Golden Boy Tommy Smith netted in added time. Although they no longer boast World Beaters like Julio Cesar and Rio Ferdinand among their ranks, there is undoubtedly some very strong talent coming out of the London club. Eberechi Eze is an obvious example of their ability to generate stars; the now Crystal Palace playmaker earned his big move with his tricky dribbling, genius creativity, and an eye for the golden pass or shot at the end of it all.  QPR's talent didn't stop after Eze though, as seen in the rise of Bright Osayi-Samuel, a 22-year-old Nigerian-born left-winger who is fit to return to the R's starting XI. George Thomas and Luke Amos won't play a part, however, as they recuperate from their respective injuries.

Mark Warburton is the man in the dugout at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium and is assisted by former Watford Captain John Eustace, who Warburton knows from his stint as Academy Coach at Vicarage Road. Pointless Fact of the Week (this will not be a weekly feature) Warburton's son also played for Watford, though only at the youth level.

The former Nottingham Forest and Brentford boss have been at the helm of the West London club since May 2019 and currently utilises his players in a 4-2-3-1, similarly to Watford in recent years. Lyndon Dykes is expected to lead the line, with Albert Adomah, Ilias Chair, the aforementioned Osayi-Samuel, and Tom Carroll all typical starters behind the Scot in attacking midfield. Carroll, a former Tottenham Midfielder, is from Watford and went to Parmiter's School.

There will be a difficult task facing whoever starts in attack for Watford. The Hosts' Goalkeeper Seny Dieng has arguably outperformed all others in his position this season since his September debut, and despite his club's status in 18th place, they could be a lot lower down if not for his shot-stopping.

Lloyd Doyley's famous diving header was against this weekend's opposition. Doyley netted the now-famous opener in a 3-1 home victory, as current Hornet Tom Cleverley also found the net.

The last competitive meeting between the sides was during Watford's FA Cup Final Run of 2018/19. Étienne Capoue scored the only goal, but ultimately it felt a little fortunate; QPR defender Toni Leistner incredibly missed the target from a yard out with only minutes left to play. Who knows what would have happened if he'd scored?

The two sides met in a pre-season friendly prior to Watford's relegation campaign. The game also ended 1-0 to the visitors, and once again it was Capoue who converted the sole goal.

There is no shortage of players who have appeared for both sides competing this afternoon. The previously mentioned Tommy Smith, "Iceman" Heiðar Helguson, Gavin Mahon, and Clarke Carlisle to name only a few have all donned both the yellow of Watford and the blue-white hoops of Queens Park Rangers.

Who's the Threat?

QPR: Bright Osayi-Samuel

Quite an easy one to be honest. Osayi-Samuel could have made the step up to the top-flight in the summer, but in the end, probably made the right decision in staying. He's the key man now on the left flank, a consistent starter and establishing himself as a serious talent despite his youth. Femenia (or Ngakia) may have to be wary of his attacking runs in behind given their own tendencies to push forward.

Watford: Andre Gray

Watford have a wealth of attacking options, so I may find myself regretting this if his name isn't on the teamsheet, but Andre Gray seems to be more confident, quick, and mature than ever. Having spoken to the Media on Thursday, including me, he spoke with intellect and self-awareness, recognising where it went wrong in the Premier League, and more importantly, appearing hell-bent on reaching his potential. A fully fit fully motivated Andre Gray is more than just a handful for defenders. He's a nightmare.

Elliot's Score Prediction:

Complacency may well kick in following back-to-back wins at Vicarage Road, but I can't see that happening. Vladimir Ivić has quite clearly instilled a strong-willed mentality in his players, and from his Press Conferences, he doesn't seem the type to wave away a game like this. QPR can absolutely perform better than their league position suggests, and it could be tight, but the visitors will edge this.

Queens Park Rangers 1-2 Watford

Kick-Off: 3 pm, Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium

Televised? No, but available on Hive Live and iFollow.

Referee: Michael Salisbury

Early in Oakland

After a pleasant flight LIH-OAK, we overnighted at the Airport Hilton in Oakland, managing a few hours of sleep and even a quick breakfast before catching a 7:00AM shuttle back to the airport, little more than five minutes away.

The airport is calm early Sunday morning and we’re alteady seated in Row 2 as the plane fills up.

We fly to Seattle, where we’ll have a couple of hours and use our Alaska Lounge passes before the last hop up to BLI.

Kapa’a: Sam’s Ocean View Restaurant

This well-regarded joint overlooks the locale of our bike ride.

Happy Hour merged into dinner, and we had these Ahi Nachos boxed to finish at some later point in our room.

The cauliflower was also delicious.

Brian’s flank steak with chimmichurri sauce was delicious.

Kathy’s fish and chips, made with fresh island Mahi, was also a hit.

Great view, great place!

A Drive to Kauai’s ‘Dry Cave’

A spectacular drive...

Road work and a half dozen one-way bridges only added to the excitement.

Kapa’a Bike Ride

Our Hilton Garden Inn includes a two-hour bike rental.

There’s no way we could comfortably ride for two hours in this heat even on the level paved oceanfront path, but we did manage an hour and enjoyed the beautiful views.

Kapaa: Paniolo Santa Maria Style Barbecue

It could have beeen great.

We showed up at the right time and grabbed a great table right in front of the stage.

We ordered the tri-tip nachos and they proved to be excellent.

Then the music started, and it was way too loud on open-mike night for us.

We moved inside and it was way too hot for us. Aren’t we fussy?

We ordered the two-meat plate to share but they were out of pork ribs and out of tri-tip, odd since a mainstay of Santa Maria Barbecue is tri-tip.

We went with chicken and boneless pork, both underwhelming.

The side of onion rings was excellent.

It was all reasonably priced and we feel like curmudgeons for not enjoying it all.

We’d try them again on a return trip.

Wailua Shave Ice on Kauai

Some claim it’s the best. We won’t argue with that.

Of course, at $7.50 each (with added ice cream) it should be good.

Kathy’s Lava Flow...

Brian’s Almond Joy...

Waimea Canyon on Kauai

Heading back down to the Pacific...

Some of the darkest red dirt we’ve seen...

5 Questions with Rudolf McClain (Merlove)

We're going to be making many new changes and additions here at WineLog.net this year. One of these is a new series of interviews for our blog called "5 Questions With..." The inaugural interview is with the brilliant young documentarian, Rudolf (Rudy) McClain (Twitter), who recently released a real-world, global response to the backlash seen against Merlot following the release of the quirky, blockbuster 2004 film Sideways, based on the novel by Rex Pickett. Merlove is a documentary about a world's love of a grape in the wake of a fictitious (and ironic) slandering, a discovery of a love wine and an understanding of the nuances of terroir.

Dancing on Ice: Holly Willoughby ‘stunning’ in Barbie pink dress for Valentine’s Day

Holly Willoughby, 40, is known for her incredibly chic style for her appearances on both This Morning and Dancing On Ice. For Sunday’s episode of the skating show, the presenter went for a floor length dress which fans have branded as “stunning”.

Many of Holly’s Dancing on Ice outfits have actually been from the brand and the stunning pieces are available to buy online.

The chiffon silk gown is not for sale on their website but similar styles retail for around £1,000.

The post was liked more than 40,000 within just six minutes of Holly uploaded the snaps.

Fans rushed to the comments to share how beautiful the presenter looked.

She went for a muted pink eyeshadow with thick eyeliner and lashings of mascara.

The presenter had strong contour, defining her cheekbones and topped the look off with a pink lip to match the dress.

She also had a stunning pair of silver earrings on which she explained were from NOA fine jewellery, stocked by Harrods.

Holly’s hair was styled in a glamorous loose wave which she had tucked behind her ear to show off her earrings.

While her shoes can’t be seen in the snaps, they are by René Caovilla, another favourite in Holly’s wardrobe.

The look was created by a team of stylists including freelance stylist Danielle Whiteman, hair stylist Ciler Peksah and make-up artist Patsy O’Neill.

Dancing on Ice returns for another episode tonight at 6pm but unlike usual years, there is no audience and the judges will be socially distanced with a perspex screen between them.

Long Weekend at One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites

Tagaytay has been one of the top picks of Manila dwellers for quick getaway. With it being just an hour or two away from the city, this place has been favored by many for weekend road trips and staycations. Though most prefer to go on day trips, staying for the night is also a great idea. And last weekend, R and I visited One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites.

Hello, One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites
One Tagaytay Place Hotel Suites has been operating for over a decade now and it continues to be packed with tourists. In fact, it was almost fully booked last Sunday.

Wednesday, February 27, 2019

When in Tagaytay: Aozora Japanese Restaurant

It has been a long while since R and I drove to Tagaytay. As much as we would like to have a quick getaway, the horrific traffic discourages us from heading anywhere on weekends. But this long weekend's festivities sure made us change our minds. Our first stop, Aozora Japanese Restaurant.

Hello, Aozora
Aozora has been one of the popular dining options in Tagaytay that it finally expanded and opened a second branch, across One Tagaytay Place.

Swimming with Sea Turtles: Apo Island, Dumaguete

Exploring the different islands of the Philippines make me want to live the simple life. Just thinking about how great it is to wake up at the sound of the waves hitting the shore or frolicking around the river makes me want to pack my bags and head out for a long adventure. But leaving the city life is a big decision to make. So for now, I'd settle with having memorable getaways. And speaking of unforgettable, I just had a fantastic trip in Apo Island a few weeks back!

Hello, Apo Island!
If you're an adventure junkie or just love to see the beauty of what's under the sea, you must have heard of Apo Island. Considered as one of the best places for diving or even just snorkeling, this spot in Dumaguete has been attracting flock after flock of tourists each day.

First Bite: Katherine's Café

Homey restaurants never fail to get my attention. I'd often find myself approaching it and checking its menu. Such was the case with Katherine's Café when I passed by it on my way to Mama Lou's.

Hello, Katherine's Café
Brightly lit with a bit of Julia Child vibe, Katherine's Café was bustling with hungry guests when I dropped by for lunch last Thursday.

Eco-Luxury at its Finest: Pangulasian Island Resort

El Nido is one of my favorite places in the Philippines. Just thinking about basking in the majestic beauty of the limestone rock formations surrounding its islands makes me want to book the next possible flight. And just when I thought I had a great time at El Nido, a resort showed me how to best enjoy this wonderful vacation spot.

Hello, Pangulasian Island Resort.
Hailed as one of the most luxurious resorts in El Nido (with rates at par or slightly higher compared to the more popular Lagen Island Resort), Pangulasian is managed by El Nido Resorts.

Beat the Heat 101: Honey Lemon

Living in the city could take a toll on the body. With traffic seemingly getting worse each day, I often find myself going for the short route when it comes to grabbing meals. Fast food, canned goods, you name it. As long as it's just a call or few clicks away, you got my attention. But I end up compromising health with convenience. However, not everything off the shelf is bad. In fact, a new product found its way to our shores and would make summer extra fun and healthy.

Hello, Honey Lemon.
R and I are big fans of honey. We'd often drink honey water to start up our day and to help boost our immune system. Though we'd enjoy honey with a wide variety of beverages (even food), we hardly have it with lemon. But who knew it is a winning combination and a very healthy one at that?

Wednesday, February 20, 2019

Restaurant Love: Lugang Cafe

Lugang has been one of my favorite restaurants in Manila. It fired up my love for xiao long bao made me head over heels crazy with other dishes it has perfected. And when R's parents invited us to join them for dinner at Lugang, we couldn't say no.

Hello, Lugang.
You know that a restaurant is doing remarkably well when it is at an inconvenient location yet packed on a weekday night. Dining at Lugang O'Square branch without reservation is near impossible with its many loyal patrons.

Tuesday, February 19, 2019

First Bite: East Ocean

Chinese cuisine is no stranger with us Filipinos. We were exposed to several of its dishes ever since we could eat solid food. But only a few could be named worthy to be called great. And recently, several taste makers claim that a ginormous Chinese restaurant at the golden Entertainment City is a real deal.

Hello, East Ocean.

This multi-level Chinese restaurant has been the talk of town since it opened. With several private rooms and massive luxurious dining hall, it is no surprise why this is favored by socialites.
R's parents decided to treat everyone to dinner here after our Pangulasian trip since it's just a few minutes away from the airport.

Monday, February 18, 2019

A Berry Yummy Cake: Cara Mia's Strawberry Shortcake

Cakes symbolize celebrations and all kinds of occasions. But we don't need to wait for something to celebrate to grab a slice. In fact, I wouldn't mind having it every day especially if it's Cara Mia's latest limited flavor!

Hello, Cara Mia.
If its Ube Cake was not enough to impress us all, Cara Mia launched another easy favorite with its Strawberry Shortcake.

Sebastian's Month of Love Flavors

Valentine's Day is always one of the most celebrated occasions. We see the town turn red and adorned with hearts, flowers and what-have-yous. But expect the unexpected with one of the most creative food concepts in town.

Hello, Sebastian's Ice Cream!
Our favorite unpredictable ice cream shop launched four new flavors to celebrate the month of love and as always, Sebastian's never fail to surprise us with innovative flavors.

Restaurant Love: Cocina Peruvia's Newest Dishes this 2019

Cocina Peruvia is like wine of the restaurant industry. It just keeps getting better and better with time. And its newest dishes definitely made this colorful restaurant stand out even more.

Hello again, Cocina Peruvia.
My relationship with Cocina Peruvia could be described as a drama show on television. It didn't start right but after giving it a few more chances... I think I'm now in love.

Back To Basics: Savage

Savage has been one of the most talked about restaurants in town. Raved about by taste makers, I was excited to try its grilled pulpo. However, our frequent out of town trips pushed back my plan to dine at Arya Plaza's crowd favorite restaurant. Thankfully, R's sisters made plans to have a get together here and we were in town for it.

Hello, Savage
With all the frills and complexities of cooking in this modern age, Chef Josh Boutwood went back to how cooking all started, with flame and smoke. And this is how Savage was born.

Valentine's Day Gift Ideas: Snake River Farms (SRF) Gift Box

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and many are stressing out on what to give their significant other. Thankfully, R and I are not too big on buying each other gifts and prefer to spend time with each other. And there is no better way to spend quality time than over a good home cooked meal.

Hello again, Snake River Farms
My favorite steak brand came up with the perfect Valentine's Day gift idea. It bundled several favorites--Wagyu Strip Loin, Wagyu C. Cut Sirloin, Wagyu Flapmeat, Wagyu Ground Beef and Wagyu Frankfurter. Each pack weighs 330 grams with the exception of Wagyu Ground Beef which weighs 500 grams and Wagyu Frankfurter with 454 grams.

Yellow Cab Celebrates 3rd World Pizza Week

February is my favorite month of the year for several reasons. Aside from it being the month of Love and my birth month, it is also when Yellow Cab celebrates World Pizza Week

Hello, Yellow Cab!

Tokyo Tokyo Launches Sisig Ramen

Tokyo Tokyo is one of my go to places for affordable Japanese food. I still recall my college days when I'd grab an order of its tempura and pair it with its refreshing red iced tea. And Tokyo Tokyo continues to remain relevant in the food industry by innovating and offering new products to the ever growing demanding market. This time, this popular Japanese restaurant chain came up with something quite Filipino

Hello, Tokyo Tokyo
We all know Tokyo Tokyo for its crisp tempura and bang for the buck bento meals. It recently launched its Nori Tempura which tickled seaweed lovers' taste buds. And just a few weeks later, it launched a new dish that would pique the interest of ramen lovers.

Tuesday, February 5, 2019

Restaurant Favorite: Dulcelin Gourmet

Dulcelin is no stranger in the food industry. Known for its scrumptious Mango Torte and Wagyu Tri-tip, it has gained patrons all over the metro. And when I came across Dulcelin's restaurant along West Triangle, I knew where to eat next.

Hello, Dulcelin Gourmet.
Contrary to its name, Dulcelin Gourmet's restaurant doesn't have that fancy or snooty vibe. And surprisingly, the place was still packed at 1:30 p.m. on a weekday.

Monday, February 4, 2019

Restaurant Favorite: Mama Lou's

Dining out could be overwhelming these days with the crazy number of restaurants to choose from. But when I'm tasked to choose a place to host our office guests, I stick with the ones I love or highly recommend. And last week, I picked one of my favorites for dinner.

Hello, Mama Lou's.
Mama Lou's has been one of my favorites since 2017. Just one bite of its delectable Mushroom Chicharon would win anyone over!

Staycation Chronicles: Bayleaf Cavite

I hardly consider Cavite as a location for a quick getaway. In fact, I couldn't think of a single thing to do in the area. But who would have thought that there's a gem waiting to be found along the long Governor's Drive?

Hello, Bayleaf Cavite.
Bayleaf may not be exactly a new name in the hospitality industry as its Intramuros branch has been around for over five years. Built as an extension to Lyceum of the Philippines, Bayleaf served as the culinary arm of the university. And it was not long after the success of Bayleaf Intramuros when the Laurel family decided to open another one, this time in Cavite.

By Kim Manahan, Chloe Dawson, and Melissa Boyd (Whetstone Staff Writers)

Shane Miller / Whetstone

By the time the football game started, the bleachers were packed and lines formed at the ticket booths reaching the street at Wesley College’s annual Family Day, Sept. 18.

“I liked that my parents were here,” said freshman Phandra Thompson

This year’s theme for Family Day was, “Under the Sea.”

Free activities were set up in the end zone.

The family fun zone had Photo Pirate-themed pictures, a mechanical surfboard and snow cones. The Residence Hall Association hosted a free sand art table.

Ozechoski encouraged graduate assistant Trevor Havelock to ride the surfboard, which was provided by Endeavour Entertainment.

Sophomore and RHA member Megan Varga stood at the sand art table.

“It’s for any age,” she said. “Mostly for the kids, but we’ve had a variety of ages.”

Participants were able to choose from different shapes to fill with sand, including a dolphin or cell phone.

In the background, the Lake Forest High School marching band could be heard playing Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing.”

Event-staff security stood at the entrances to the Scott D. Miller stadium, checking student identification and bags.

Senior Ashleigh Maser was turned away at first.

“I left my ID card on my dresser in my room,” she said.

Maser was excited to attend the football game with her mother, Jill, Wesley’s nurse.

“I love football, and watching the game with my mom because she usually doesn’t go to sports,” Maser said.

Sarah Smith, director of student activities, wanted everyone to have a fun time.

“It’s about [everyone] enjoying themselves,” Smith said.

Across the street the para-professional tailgate was held.

Aramark set up a tent serving a variety of food, including chicken and corn on the cob.

The tailgate was invitation-only and for the families of the Student Life para-professional staff.

“We want family weekend to have parents understand what students are really experiencing,” Ozechoski said. “A lot of parents stop coming to Wesley events after freshmen year, and most parents don’t understand all that their child is going through.”

Ozechoski said the tailgate was to thank the Student Life leaders for what they do for the college.

At the end of the tailgate, sophomore Mike Hickey spent time with his family and their dog Scout.

“We’re going to have a hot dog and watch the game!” said his mother Michelle Hickey, as their daughter Michelle played with Scout.

The family was also excited to see the mind reader.

“We did that last year,” Michelle said. “It was fun.”

Miya Jackson’s mother, Kimberly, had a good day with her daughter.

“We saw the football game, and I get to see your living environment,” she said.

Before the football game against Delaware Valley started, a moment of silence was held for Julia DeFelice.

The crowd remained standing as Bianca Bailey sang the national anthem.

After the game, Dulaney dining hall opened its doors for dinner and for the Think Fast Game Show.

“I noticed that the dining hall was cleaner and the food was better,” said freshman Kareema Sesay.

The hot wings were a popular choice.

“My mom liked the food,” Thompson said.

The day ended with illusionist Craig Karges.

“He is the number one entertainer in the college market,” Ozechoski said.

The Step team performed before him, and introduced its new members.

Bourbon 101

    What is “Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey”?

Bourbon whiskey is legally considered a “distinctive product of the United States,” and no other country has the authority to call their whiskey products Bourbon. Even though Bourbon can be produced anywhere, for a Bourbon to be classified as Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, it must have been distilled and aged in Kentucky for a period of at least one year and then continue to be aged for at least one additional year.

Straight whiskies must be made with a minimum of 51% of the grain that identifies that particular whiskey. For example, for a whiskey to be a Bourbon, it must be made with at least 51% corn. Other types of straight whiskies include rye, wheat whiskey, and straight corn whiskey. Blended whiskey, however, is a mixture that may contain at least 20 percent of straight whiskey or a blend of straight whiskies in combination with “harmless” coloring, flavoring, blending materials, other whiskies or neutral spirits either separately or in combination. Straight whiskey must be aged a minimum of 2 years.

Federal regulations require that Bourbon whiskey be made from a minimum of 51 percent corn. Other grains used may be rye, wheat and barley malt in any combination. By law, Bourbon must be distilled at no higher than 160 proof (vodka and neutral spirits are distilled at 190 proof) and aged in new, charred American white oak barrels at not more than 125 proof. Also, no colorings or flavorings can be added. Only distilled water may be added to the Bourbon before bottling, to achieve the proper bottling proof, which must be at least 80 proof.

Bourbon is an American whiskey, and as such is made under strict federal guidelines as described above. Some other American whiskies, such as Tennessee whiskey, must meet minimum requirements for grain, proof and aging to be called whiskey; however, distillers are free to age their whiskey in used barrels and add caramel for coloring. Regulations for imported whiskeys vary, depending on their country of origin. For instance, Canadian whisky is produced without minimums for grain mixtures, aging, or additives for flavoring or color, and producers can add up to 9.09% of other spirits or wine. Scotch and Irish whiskies, also made in compliance with their countries’ unique set of guidelines and regulations, often “tint” their whiskies to achieve a desired color.

Ex Libris Project

Ex Libris is a project organized by Heather Wacha, CLIR Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for the History of Print and Digital Culture, and driven by three graduate students from the iSchool at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. As a digital humanities project, we seek to engage and educate a public audience about working with original sources, such as medieval and early modern manuscripts, and conducting original research thereupon.

A benign cover may hide exiting secrets… (University of Wisconsin Memorial Library, Special Collections D 1328)
For example … Isaac Newton’s handwriting at the top of the title page, suggesting the title should read thusly: “The Entrance Opened into the hidden Palace of the King.” (University of Wisconsin Memorial Library, Special Collections, D 1328.)

The project advocates for archives in general, and for the University of Wisconsin Special Collections in particular.  Its inception sprung from a desire to share the excitement of reading and working with historical manuscripts, to increase general awareness of how accessible these materials are, and to illuminate the unique connection at the University of Wisconsin with histories and historical context that come from handling and working with these manuscripts. It also offers graduate students the opportunity to gain experience organizing and executing an interdisciplinary, collaborative, digital humanities research project.

The Ex Libris project has come to fruition with a series of short, educational videos that showcase the stories and people behind manuscripts now held in Memorial Library Special Collections. The video series targets both a public and scholarly audience, revealing the accessibility of archival materials by breaking down manuscript barriers with a “you can do this too!” attitude.

The broad nature of all that encompasses Ex Libris requires the utilization of a wide range of skills. The students have honed their skills with Medieval/Renaissance Latin and vernacular paleographies and early type fonts, as well as cinematographic and video editing skills.

Crowed Kingdom : Anser

We meander through our crowded kingdoms; this kingdom is called Toronto, passing by many nameless faces. The faces belong to you; to your family; your neighbour; people you may come to know at some future unknown date; and others you may never pass again; but at that moment in time your paths crossed.

Perhaps on one auspicious evening you may have passed a non-assuming person sitting at a downtown café enjoying a sugar spiked coffee while contemplatively taking in the passing emotional landscape. Instead you observed the blank non-descript bank wall on your left. A few hours later, after enjoying a vice or two with friends you retraced your path. Something caught your attention. You turned and there in front of you was a 6’ tall face returning your gaze. “Was that there earlier?” you asked yourself. Looking closely, you realized there was a certain familiarity about it, but you couldn’t quite place it. The following week you rode by that same wall. The face was gone, buffed. A few weeks later a new face replaced it and that same week you noticed a pair of watery eyes around the corner from your home. That familiar feeling returned. That’s when you realized those eyes have been there all summer. In fact, so have a few other faces along your usual routes.

You asked yourself who painted these mysterious faces sprinkled throughout the city. You looked for a signature, but found none. Who doesn’t put their name up and claim their art?

“People are constantly in search of answers. A lot of our lives are based around questions and answers. I liked the word. It meant something.” Anser dropped the W and adopted the counterintuitive word as his tagger name. Like most graffiti writers, it started for him with letter style graffiti tags. After about four or so years of writing Anser and other names he began to get a little bored of the letterform.

A supposition began to formulate as his perception changed. Graffiti was somewhat exclusive, geared really only to the graffiti community. He posed the question, “If graffiti is in the public eye, then why shouldn’t the public be able to engage with it?” He knew that whatever the solution would become it had to be true to graffiti. Meaning, it had to be of the moment and created under intense pressure.

These contemplations remained on his mind as set out to hone his art skills abroad. He made his way through Europe visiting museums and taking in the local culture with sketchbook in hand. Eventually he found himself in Australia. By this time his sketches had moved away from graffiti and he was drawing more along the lines of fine art. Portraits began to fill the pages of his sketchbook, becoming more and more his subject of choice. While he lived in Australia he spent a great deal of time hanging out with traditional graffiti artists. Their influence brought some old tendencies back. It was a culmination of circumstances and an unconventional setting that allowed new and old ideas to meet and make the leap from traditional illustration toward linear simplicity.

One night on a dimly lit basketball court in Australia, the answer presented itself. There was a wall in the court constantly being covered in graffiti. It just so happened that it had recently been buffed clean. This freshly painted blank wall called. He and some friends decided to make that wall a mission. Earlier that day he had been drawing portraits. In that moment as he held a can of black paint to the wall he decided he wasn’t going to do a tag. He was going to draw a face. He pressed the cap down and kept spraying. “I found the contour lines of a face.” He stepped back and in that moment, through the medium of the spray can he knew he was onto something. He finished the wall with his buddies the usual way by adding his tag and putting up some bombs. Eventually the face became the tag and he dropped his name. It was his friend Kizmet who convinced him to maintain the association of the faces with the name Anser.

Over the years the faces have evolved. Originally the faces maintained a strong reference to the writer’s traditional graffiti roots. They were filled-in and shaded. Gradually, their large eyes became smaller and more refined. The often curl tipped hair eventually became a few strands or a wisp. Contour lines that were once considered a little more raw and gritty became the sleek one-liners we see today.

These faces are drawn with the intention to be noticed. The subject matter is one that most humans can relate to and connect with. Drawing them street level next to sidewalks in major intersections or towering three or four stories high like a billboard, they become very visible components of the public realm. Indeed, these urban beacons are strategically placed so as to maximize public impact and interest. Yet, they bear a certain level of artistic detachment uncommonly associated with this level of public exhibition. The omission of the signature leaves the observer with the open-ended question, “who is the artist?”

One cannot question detachment without questioning ownership. In the case of graffiti, relinquished ownership through the transfer of imagery from the hand of the artist to the unsuspecting property owner is part of the art. It is this process that stimulates the required environment of risk induced stress. In the act of detaching oneself [the writer] from the art, does the art mutually detach itself from the artist? In the case of Anser, do his faces become a phenomenon unto themselves and the property of the kingdom? Anser observed, “Seemingly the more faces that appear, the more people respond to them”. We can only speculate on what that captivating draw may be. Is it their element of surprise, their obvious anonymity, or their sly beauty? Perhaps observers see a little bit of themselves or someone they know within the fluid lines. Maybe over time the faces simply become a recognizable and familiar comfort to find around the next corner.

There is another question to consider, which is integral to the realm of graffiti. This is the question of how did it get there. “For me one of the true art forms of graffiti is testing both your own physical boundaries, and your artistic process and approach in that moment of intense pressure. Sometimes the more pressure, the more beautiful a piece becomes. And, the more hardship experienced, the more meaning a piece carries.” The risk that provokes the question, “How the f**k did he do that?” is part of the magic. This question relating to feat itself is not exclusive to the graffiti community. It is cognizant to all observers and thus supports the supposition of public engagement and accessibility. “Pretty much I’m risking many different things at the same time, and more often than not it’s my life. I like this concept about reality where little things could change and with those alterations it will change people’s perception around them. I could walk a straight line and take up X amount of space. I could walk the same amount of line and if there is a massive drop that leads to my death on the other end it changes everything about it. It’s a test to myself. It pumps my adrenalin and its something that is incredibly fun and incredibly ridiculous at the same time.”

What’s next for Anser? Not the type of person to be restricted by boundaries he is making a rare environmental shift. He is taking his work indoors to Hashtag Gallery for his second solo show called Crowded Kingdom. His first solo show was held 6 years ago in 2008.

If an @ansermysteriousdate Instagram or Tumblr follower you would already be familiar to his usual ink on paper Affordable Art Friday offerings. Mixed with just right amount of experimentation, he has a flare for keeping his social media fans on their toes and their taste buds salivating for more. However, prequels to what his exhibit promises to behold they are not.

He revealed a sampling of his new pieces made especially for Crowded Kingdom. First, Anser led us to a display of assorted candy coloured sculptural resin heads. It is a collaboration with artist Laird. Next he picked up a framed ink drawing with a red band across the eyes. It was layered with typewriter applied words – cryptic poetry. The word kiss filled the lower lip. To the left was a transparent acrylic glass sheet-cum-paint palette. Now flipped in reverse the smooth side of the palette served as a backdrop for a portrait. He told us that there will be graffiti tagged brick and mortar wall sections to take home. A friend of his had carefully sliver cut salvage brick and rebuilt wall sections so as create an authentic graffiti canvas. Do you want to shed further light on the subject? The crowning gem of the exhibit will be in the form of a five foot neon tube face. In keeping within the vein of accessibility there will be plenty of small treasures too. There will be a surprise he declared as he walked over to a blank six foot square wood panel. Some of the attendees may find themselves or someone else they know as one of the subjects.

In this Crowded Kingdom you never know whom you might cross-paths with. It may even be Anser. See you this Thursday, February 26, at Hashtag Gallery. Crowed Kingdom

Good Critique Technique

I've talked a lot about editing lately, and received a few questions about just how to be an editor. In particular, some people have questioned how they can be a good editor if they are not very good at writing in the first place. This is a very important discussion, so I thought it'd be worth exploring a little. In particular, I want to offer the difference between being an editor, being a writer, and being a critic - a good critic.

We all have that image in our heads of an editor - that intense, critical look in their eyes. An anxious, almost desperate urge to leap in and mark up our beautiful copy. And, of course, that annoying aura of someone who knows all the rules and focuses on everything wrong with whatever is in front of them. That's the stereotypical editor, and all writers frame that person as the villain. To be honest, if our editor is that kind of person, maybe they are just a villain.

Each writer needs a special kind of editor to address their particular needs. The kind of editor someone needs for a manuscript is often different than what people need in a workshop, so before we decide what kind of editor we can or can't be, we need to decide what our writing audience needs. Some need editors, others need critics, and some just need help. Addressing that last need is the most important in a workshop, and it doesn't take an old-school, hard-core editor to fill that role.

In workshops, people are trying to become writers, so the most important part is helping them write what they want to say. Anyone reviewing the work of a person trying to figure out how to tell a story should be the editor from the 30,000-foot view - someone who looks at the big picture: Is the story clearly written? Is the structure solid, or can it be improved? Are there distractions? What is the conclusion? If the spelling, punctuation, and grammar are horrible, the high-level edit might note to run a spell-check, but that's not the point right now. It's all about structure, flow, and storytelling. People who want to become writers don't need to know the proper application of the subjunctive or how to spell occurrence; they need to get things together and communicate ideas.

As a writer starts developing the craft, the best editor will be someone who can be a critic. (Note: "Critic" can be a good thing if it is constructive.) In this case, the critical editor will come down from the 30,000-foot view, zooming in much closer, approaching works while considering things like structuring paragraphs or style techniques. Any critique from this level will be full of comments and questions, pointing out where techniques work, where they don't, and ideas about getting it back on track. The critical editor should offer recommendations for any problem they highlight, and promote the writer's personal growth. These are the most important editors for the writers in a workshop who want to shift their writing game into high gear.

Conversely, the least-helpful editors in a workshop are the deep, intense, close-view critics who spend their time parsing every comma and semicolon, picking every nit they can find. These editors are mandatory for anyone who wants to create a polished copy ready for publication or contest submission. However, this intensity is not a good fit in a workshop, or at least not when that style of editing is the top priority. It took me a while to put away that style of editing at workshops and focus on style, structure, and helping writers grow.

Yes, I still mark spelling errors and fix punctuation at workshops. However, the part I focus on now, and what everyone can participate in, comes from talking about the broader picture, and what we notice not as editors, but as readers. You don't need to be a great writer to have an opinion as a reader. Your opinion in that regard is what will make you an important contributor to any writing workshop.

tot school - letter m - 27 months

We are finally back in our house after our great house disaster. It feels good to be back. My husband is busy dutifully trying to fix up our house and put things back in their place while I'm busy, of course, planning and prepping Tot School. Ethan has made it clear he's missed his Tot School classroom and we're ready to change up activities weekly again instead of bi-weekly.

Even though we were displaced for a few weeks, I made sure to cling to as much normalcy as possible, even if that meant setting up Tot School on my mom's dining room table -- which I did. M week went on and while it was different than our classroom, it was still a pretty great two weeks.

Letter M Magnet Board

I hijacked a few of my mom's baking dishes to ensure Ethan's makeshift Tot School included his usual favorite activity: the magnet board. It's been really cool watching his vocabulary grow and the way he uses his magnet board words in everyday sentences (not that any were particularly challenging this week).

M&M Letter M

Oh, the M&M tray. This was a huge success and Ethan loved it. It was hilarious to watch him do this tray because as determined as he was, he would almost wince when having to put the M&M onto the paper and not in his mouth. He slipped up a couple of times and after smiling one chocolatey smile would continue working at his letter M printable.

Letter M Traceable

Ethan went from absolutely hating tracing to requesting it every week in Tot School. He's getting really good and being able to stay on the lines to trace the letter. Of course, when he finishes tracing the letter, he's happy to scribble all over the page. Dry erase markers were always my favorite school supply, too.

M is for Monsters

This one was a huge hit. I found some stock images of cute little monsters and added a shape to each one using MS Paint. (My mom's computer isn't exactly high tech, but I'll take what I can get.) I printed out little cards with the corresponding shapes and Ethan got to match those with the monster sporting that same shape. He already knows his basic shapes but still really enjoyed this activity and would be really proud each time he completed it. He did have a little trouble with the square and rectangle at first but nailed it pretty quickly.

Monkey Marble Tray

This was another great printable from Confessions Of A Homeschooler. We used marbles to place in the empty circles since it was M week and I was lucky enough to find a big bag of marbles at the dollar store (score!). Ethan really enjoyed this activity until, towards the end of our week, he got a hold of some glue and glued down the marbles to the printable. It was a beautiful art piece, at the very least!

This tray was for Ethan to get a closer look at money. He had no trouble with a dollar or a penny ("the brown money") but the others got him a little mixed up. He enjoyed sorting the money and studying them to place them in the correct spot on the paper, but this was his least favorite activity of them all.

Monkey Magnet Tray

This was just a fun one for Ethan to play with magnets. I gave him some monkeys and some banana trees and he had a blast playing with the monkeys, especially making them swing upside down on the trees.

Making Musical Instruments

I put together a big bin of reusable items (empty coffee cups, containers, boxes, toilet paper rolls, rice, dried beans, rubberbands) that we could turn into musical instruments. Ethan loved scooping the rice and beans into the coffee cups to make shakers and we enjoyed listening to the different sounds they both ended up making. He filled the toilet paper roll with little bells and we used aluminum foil to hold everything inside. Once his instruments were made, Ethan went to down painting and decorating them. When they were dry, we put on some music and had fun playing along with our new instruments.

Arts & Crafts

I found a bag of plastic masks for a dollar at Wal-Mart and Ethan had fun gluing things onto them and painting them. However, he didn't like wearing them -- so once decorated, they didn't get much use.

I also had printed some Twisty Noodle printables and Ethan had a blast painting. We definitely missed all of our fun, messy arts and crafts projects and I can't wait to kick this up a notch for upcoming N week!

  1. I'm so glad to hear that you are back home! And incredibly impressed that Ethan is actually using his M&M's to trace the letter M! I'm pretty sure that my little guy would gooble them all up!
