Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dumb



I saw an episode on the Food Network featuring Paula Dean's sons and they truly are twiddle dee and twiddle dumb. The sons were raised in the south so they are supposed to have a bit of a southern charm to them and definitely have the southern drawl. Unfortunately, as I sat on the couch watching these two all I could think was "you guys cannot be for real." They go to various restaurants and show what the restaurant is well known for (cuisine-wise.) For having a mother who's become somewhat of a tv cook juggernaut they are really clueless. They act really dumb and as though they've never been in a kitchen before. They like to dip their grubby fingers into everything and always go "ooh ahh" over everything, especially bourbon or whiskey.

These guys act like completely simpletons. They are like southern frat boys who've been dropped on their heads a few too many times as a child. *sigh* This goes to show that nepotism is definitely not a good thing -- leads to us innocent TV viewers being subjected to 30 minutes of watching immature idiots on TV

The Cat's Away this Weekend

While the cat's away will the mice play?

I took Ming to the airport this morning. Traffic was horrendous; it took us an hour to get from Palo Alto to SFO. I am so glad that I don't have a long commute anymore. If I had to deal with bumper to bumper traffic (and stop and go) every day I'd go crazy. Right now I'm completely spoiled by my 3 mile commute. ^_^

Ming is away on business through the weekend so it means that I have from now to Sunday to do whatever I please. While he, lucky guy that he is, gets to go shopping at Riccardi, I am left in the Bay Area to find my amusements. What would you do if you had the entire weekend to yourself without worrying about repercussions?

Love Parade is happening this weekend but its become so commercialized that I'm not really incentivized to go. While I love the music that is played I don't look forward to seeing all of the commercial aspects of it that now exist.

I suppose I could take this time to clean house ... but I think it'd be better to wait on that so that Ming can join in "joys" of tidying up too. x_X

Oh the possibilities of what to do ...

What Celebrity Do I look Like?

I recently discovered this new site called My Heritage and it allows you to upload a photo of yourself and it then tells you how close you look compared to other celebrities. Its pretty cool. According to my results (I uploaded one of my wedding photos) I look most like Joey Yung followed by others (as seen below). The photo they have of Sammi is really out dated



Who do you most look like? ^_^

Fashion

Maybe I've been watching too much Project Runway but this dress from Fashion Week really caught my attention



I just had to share with it you because I love the dress but it's price is probably way out of my league and I'll have to be content with simply viewing it from afar.

Jusice on Fox



Last night I finally got around to watching the tv show Justice. It is a tv series about a group of lawyers who try to win a case for the defendent. The lawyers try to convince the jury that their client is innocent. At the end of the show you will see what actually happened and if the jury was right in their sentencing of the defedent.

I dont normally watch lawyer shows, e.g. Law and Order, CSI, but this one got me hooked. There was never a dull moment and I was completely at the edge of my seat (well, the couch) and trying to figure out if the defendent was really innocent. It's a really good show and I'll be hooked to it until 24 comes back on -- and even then I'll be watching both 24 and Justice religously
