Time is what prevents everything from happening at once.


I don't know where I found this picture, but this is my official Christmas card. 

I am looking for a New Year card, now that 2012 is coming.

Actually, it is three days away.

Did you do your resolution yet? 

For all of you that don't know much about Chinese astrology, 2012 will be the year of the Dragon... What it means? Let's just say it will be more fire-y than the Rabbit year we are just ending.

Happy Holidays!

Dear Cupcakes


Fact:
A Crumbs cupcake has around 500 calories. You eat it in about 5 minutes.

Fact:
In order to burn 500 calories, you need to work out for at least one hour.

Cupcakes, I love you, but I am tired trying to find excuses for your existence.

Yed, Red Velvet Crumbs Cupcake, I am talking to you.

Maybe I should just switch to a Carrot Cupcake. I mean, what's healthier out there than carrots.

"The online nutrition database MyFitnessPal notes that one carrot cupcake contains 410
calories. If you base your diet on the suggested intake of 2,000 calories per day, then one
 cupcake comprises more than 20 percent of your daily calories. According to the Mayo
Clinic, it would take nearly two hours of weightlifting to burn these calories."-- from 

Two hours of weightlifting?

Right, count me in.

Merry Christmas


“I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all year long.”~ Charles Dickens



                                Santa, be nice and bring Chanel to me and my friends.
                          
                                I am attaching this picture for you to know what I mean.



Merry Christmas.

Empty LA





"Photographer Matt Logue has published a book of beautiful photographs entitled "Empty L.A.". As a resident of Metropolitan Los Angeles, I find these photographs strikingly surreal and ameliorative. They're not all Freeway shots (as above); some are beach scenes; others depict a tranquil Downtown, utterly devoid of people and cars. I have no idea how he did them. TheWEBSITE for this project is well-worth perusal."

This is a stolen blog entry from a mysterious blogger, just to help me get back into my own writing.
