can't stop messin' up mah hair.

Haircuts.....aside from the fact that i think its a waste of money to pay someone a hundred bucks to cut my hair...i'd rather do it myself and i have, for the past many many years.....I have cut my own hair.

i'm not really particular of how i want my hair to look anyways...heck...my hair probably has never seen a comb, brush or hair sylist in the past 10 years...
however, after all these experimentations, i still can't find a hair cut I am fully satisfied with...

Obviously, I'm no professional, so my trick to mask the potential crappy job is to go for the messy look...it is the trend now isn't it? :o)
at first it was long and poufy but i managed to layered it. I actually liked this look...just had to post this pic too..dont' we look cute? lol!
then i tampered with the bangs...I was getting tired of my bangs poking my eyelashes and eyeballs...this was great, i thought it was cutesy.. but i had to blow dry the bangs downward every morning..which was a pain in the ass.
then i decided to go bold and chop it all off...eh..didn't care at this moment, just wanted something different...besides, its just hair...it'll grow back..no biggie..notice the choppy layered look? this was earlier this year... and i have since cut it again yesterday...
I am in love with this look....its so vintagy shanghai-sy...20's look...but short cuts like this looks way better if you have big eyes..which is something i dont have :o( this would be a great hairdo for the wedding though....

Thi Le cooks.

yes she does.

for anyone who doesn't cook and who does cook, story might sound a bit a familiar. dont get me wrong, i love to cook for my family but at the moment it was quite funny and enjoy-ful for me.

one evening as i was driving home from work, get a call from lil bro and sis...

bro: hey wer're at fresh and easy. what cut of steak is good, what kind of potatoe are good and what are the ingredients to your oo so awesome spagetti sauce? (they love my spagetti sauce, supposedly, i'm not sure anymore if that is an excuse to just get me to cook for them.)

me: get any cut that's cheap, no rump roast...ny strip is okay. potoatoes, red is great...as for spagetti sauce, ground beef, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, cilantro.

lil sis comes on the phone: ok sounds great, we'll buy the stuff.....but when you come home from work, can you cook it?

LOL.....not surprised...um,okay, at first, i thought they were gonna get the stuff and cook for ME but thier intent was the other way around....so, i ended up putting on the apron..and here's what i made:

ny steak strip....told bro that next time, he should look for more marbalization, more fat = juicy steak.

Here's the spagetti sauce!

chopped up all my ingredients for the spagetti sauce.

browning the onions and garlic in some olive oil...lots of onions and garlic!.

add the red and green bell peppers....it would be great to have smell-o-vision right about NOW!

ground beef

stir everything together on high heat.

I love mushrooms.

then, after everything is mixed well, pour your choice of jar-spagetti sauce and put cilantro in mixture....my choice is good ol prego.

lil sis ended up making the mashed potatoes but had to fix it by putting more butta. yum..everything taste better with butter.



awesome...medium rare...my favorite.
