SPAM Comments from Your Smart Kitchen...

Your Smart Kitchen writes skillful comments on my blog. I first didn't realize they were SPAM because their comments were somewhat related to my posts. But one thing that made me stop and think was they always post with a different name with the same link to their website.

Also, I sometimes get auto-related SPAM comments on my BMW post. LoL

Do you get any SPAM comments that relates to your posts?! What do you do against them?!

I now simply delete them... but seriously replied to it once. haha

My Mom's Juicy Tender Simmered Eggplant

This is very simple but my favorite dish that my mom cooks ;)

It's a sweet soy sauce flavor (kind of teriyaki flavor) that goes perfect with white rice.

Perfect for your bento okazu (side dish), too!!!



Video Recipe Available :D

Karaoke Addiction

I've become addicted to karaoke when I was a high school student. I couldn't afford to go there that often at that time but I remember I went there after finals with my friends for more than 3 hours!



My darling unfortunately doesn't like to go karaoke so now I go there once in a great while. Maybe twice a year or less. (My darling sings if I hand over a microphone, though...)

Anyways, yesterday I saw on TV that "your tastes may change for your loved one". I guess my Karaoke addiction reduced after I met my darling! LoL

Did any of your taste change for your loved one?!
