I mean, look at this (it’s called Men’s Round Black Diamond 14K Rose Gold Ring with Ruby):

Does it not make you swoon? I want it!

Magic Baul Giveaway!

The folks over at Magic Baul are having their first store giveaway and because I love clothes and free stuff (I love em like I love acne treatments that work), I’m joining! Up for grabs is a PHP500 gift card from Magic Baul which you can spend on any available items in the Magic Baul store. They’ll even shoulder the shipping cost!

I actually can’t decide whether or not to try my luck at winning the gift card or to just go ahead and purchase this Trompe l’oeil dress.

Anyway, for awesome thrifted clothes, visit Magic Baul!

20 Ways To Savor Tomatoes. I love tomatoes and just reading the seemingly quick and easy recipes is enough to make my mouth water.

How to make potato chips in a microwave. Potato chips are delicious and dangerous; the other week, I ate an entire bag worth 900 calories in one sitting. I swore never to do that again but I started craving for more a few days letter. I ended up buying really expensive potato chips (fried in avocado oil) because the calories and sodium content were relatively lower than other brands. I figure if I can make my own potato chips (in olive oil, of course), I can probably do away with all that sodium and other stuff.
