A nice dessert, Pams Eclairs.

Pams Eclairs. Filled with Bavarian Custard Cream and topped with Real Belgian Chocolate.

The chocolate topping is quite thick and it's better to thaw it first before eating, because the chocolate topping gets hard from freezing.

It gets messy taking them out of the box. The long eclairs comes in a 175 grams box and are only five pieces in total, and the minis are 250 grams in total and there's plenty inside the box when I opened them.

I've never eaten a home baked eclair before so I can't really compare the taste between them. All I can say is this tastes good. The Bavarian filling gives balance to the sweetness of the chocolate, it's not too sweet to eat, I think I can eat five eclairs not get full.

Memphis Meltdown Big Bikkie Ice Cream

My friend +jimmy ng  brought some ice cream, it's a TipTop Memphis Meltdown Big Bikkie, I wasn't able to take a photo of the box so here is the description from Tiptop's website

Big Bikkie 
Creamy cookie flavored ice cream packed with cookie chunks, 
smothered in cookie crumbs and rich milk chocolate.
 Available in single serve and in multipacks of 4.  
 The packaging is very simple, since all the details are in the box which I wasn't able to see, It made me really curious and excited to eat this ice cream, I have no idea of it's flavor.


Here's what it looks like, it's thick and has lots of chocolate chips, I still have no idea what's inside this thick chocolate coating.



After a few bites I started to realize that it taste like cookies, it's very sweet and I'm not really a fan of cookies and cream flavored ice creams but I like that it has lots of chocolate chips and it just melts in my mouth.


The last few bites changes everything, starting from the overload of sweetness from the chocolate chips and cookies, the creamy part of the ice cream calms things down, I wish there was more of this creamy part of the ice cream. I really enjoyed eating this even though I don't like this flavor.

Size Comparison: iPhone5, Galaxy SII, Galaxy Grand Duos

Small, medium and large. Three phones with different sizes compared.
 Starting from top is the iPhone5, next is the Samsung Galaxy SII, 
and last at the bottom is Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos.


 Top view, the largest of the three phones is the Galaxy Grand.

The iPhone5 is not only the smallest of the three, it is also the thinnest and lightest. 
Thanks to my friend +Raul Hortaleza for letting me take a photo of his iPhone5.

Is this a Giant Mosquito?


This is my second encounter of the "Giant Mosquito", the first encounter was way back 2010, if I remember correctly. My friend Jeffrey saw it also in the same location of our kitchen, we also took a photo of it but the photo is now lost, no harm was done to the insect as it was set free and flew outside the house.


A comparison between the wall socket shows how large this insect is.

My sister +Stephy Laurel has recently posted a photo of very large spider in her blog.

New aircon for Jmart Taurama


Finally the new aircon has arrived for Jmart Supermarket Taurama


It took a lot of shelf space but as long as it cools down the whole store, then it's a small sacrifice.
