Fun in the Photo Booth

While my sister and I were out shopping for Christmas presents, we stumbled upon this photo booth that actually tapes you while you pose for the different snap shots. We did not know this was happening until after so it made for a good laugh later on:





For our last pose, we were trying to recreate Mother Mary and the baby Jesus but it ended up a little too XXX for X-mas.

DIY Christmas

My sister and I decided to make some of our Christmas gifts this year. We decided to take the citrus fruit from our backyard that Filipinos commonly use in their cooking (Kalamansi) and infuse it into some vodka to give to our cousins.  We picked the fruit and boiled some mason jars in preparation. In order to decorate the jars, we stopped by the craft store and had a little too much fun:






We tasted the vodka after infusing the kalamansi in the liquor for a week and it was good enough to drink straight.  We included a little recipe for the cocktail using bitters and ginger infused simple syrup.  Below is a what the finished product looked like after we glued on our PIG DOG label:



We have an extra bottle for ourselves to use on New Years Eve so I'm ready for a Kalamansi hang over this weekend.  We got the instructions from this website along with the cocktail recipe.

Dive Bar Black Friday

My sister and I decided to take some myspace-esque photos of ourselves before heading out for some special cousin bonding time over the Thanksgiving Holiday. My sister is one of the few people I can talk to and she knows exactly what I am saying even with just a few facial expressions and grunts. Me speak pretty well, yes?

We definitely needed the cousin bonding time and I was able to take a break from everything just for awhile. It was a dive bar black Friday for all of us.

Choco-cat & Popcorn Drinks?

Japan Town : October 2011

Ice cream crepes, pichura, Hello Kitty, Choco-cat, drinks, and a movie with Sister.








Treasure Island Ahoy!

While my sister was up in the city visiting, we attending the Treasure Island Music Festival. Sister had never been before, so it was fun watching her go crazy over seeing some of the bands live that she had never seen before. Some of the high lights of the festival were: Garlic fries topped with crab, deep fried spicy macaroni & cheese, music, people/bro-watching, being photographed by Refinery 29 (SF), and beautiful weather in the middle of the Bay.









Cheezu!

My sister came to visit me back in October and we had a grand old time messing around in Japan Town using the cute photo booths that they have available. I'm trying to decide which photo I should have made into a mug for our mom to use so that she can always be reminded of how retardedly silly her daughters are.
