HI TO ALL MY DEAREST BLOGGER FRIENDS AND VISITORS..
THIS IS MY NUMBER 100 POST after blogging for 14 months..
This Post is more like the “ WORDLESS WEDNESDAY’S” approach... briefly
COURTEOUS asian style, CAMERA SHY- my image was covered with 7 layers to hide the 7 deadly sins in life. Ha ha , means I have a great sense of humor.

I AM AN ARDENT FOODIE BLOGGER. Lobster is one of my favorites, so is the versatile sago and healthy seaweed and agar. Plus many more.
I LIKE GREAT PHOTOGRAPHY WORKS- EVEN IF THE PHOTOS ARE MAGNIFIED A HUNDRED TIMES- THE IMAGES ARE STILL SHARP.
This is one of my personal best, taken in the kitchen, with normal lightings, using my Nikon, but as an amateur of course. If you zoom that further, the image does not break up and will still be just as sharp. Then the food will look tempting for the taste buds.Those who do not care about taking sharp photos, but on the other hand, are so mighty concerned that images should not have shadows etc (when in reality, shadows do exist!) , are just tweets, talking through their nose.
I AM A "CULTURE ORIENTED" PERSON-
I very much like " live" Theater Performing Arts,
especially in classical/ cultural dances and
on orchestra performances.

I like this scenery, so i archive it here
THE ROSELLE FRUIT OR FLORIDA CRANBERRIES-
One of my favorite fresh fruit juice recipe. You can read this at my older / (earlier 15) post link: http://cooking-varieties.blogspot.com/2011/01/fresh-fruit-juice-recipe-on-how-to-make.html
I DO BLOG ON FOODIE JOKES
I promised that I will publish any food jokes posted in my comment box, here’s two of them:
Katrina joked: It is so difficult to put my weight under control. Therefore as from now, I will use dish-washing liquid for showering.
ON THE BOTTLE IT CLAIMS:
“Dissolves fat that is otherwise so difficult to remove.”
Ha ha ha, many thanks Katrina, I have never seen that one before. Do check her link at my side bar- http://www.woman724.blogspot.com

Lee said: Anyone who thinks that the way to a man’s heart, is through his stomach, must have flunked geography… link at my side bar too…
This is funny Lee, but now I know the other meaning of the word geography ha ha ha.. Thank you very much for sharing this with us.
I hope you find my 100Th post a progressive one.
A word from my fb friend Ash Daud:
Thought of the day - I talk to myself because I like dealing with a better class of people-
And I said:
Tip of the day- When you want to make sure you stick to your own opinion, and not get influenced by others to change it, then talk to yourself ONLY..
They said- Do not tell anyone you are on diet, they may not buy you lunch ever again :)

ReplyDeleteAppreciate you being one my great guest bloggers, Antalya is definitely a beautiful attraction. Have a great day.
Hi Three cookies, you are one of my favorite bloggers, I like your posts and writing style..
ReplyDeleteI named the fruit stack as “the borobodur”, fruits stacked in terrace style after inspiration I got from the terraced architecture of The ancient borobodur in Java, Indonesia...
..whose construction was inspired by terraced paddy fields grown on their hill slopes.
Lengthy explaination to a simple piece of mixed fruits which I actually had marinated first…aaah long story..have a nice day.
Hi Julie, many thanks for your well wishes, you are always one of the first to visit me and I treasure your friendship.
ReplyDeleteWish the same for you too. Have a wonderful day, I try to submit a recipe to you late ok..
Hi Sie, you are hilarious at times, I like your sense of humor and strong will.. and I am glad we meet in cyber..
ReplyDeleteI did not keep for you the food from my banquet 100, because the menu was ancient Roman..ha ha, flamingoes tongue- gourmet, but not for your tastebuds.. have a nice day,
I know you like crabs and cranberries only.
Hi Amina and salam to you, aamin to hundreds more posts,I wish the same success for you too. Gkad you like my foodie pictures. Have a nice day dear.
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, great food is irresistible, the chicken won- in my case, however way it is being prepared.
ReplyDeleteBut following your recipe is sure a safe bet, where you have already discarded the unhealthy ingredients and reconstruct the menu. have a nice week end..
Hi Lena, thanks for visiting and for the sweet comments, smiles to a pretty lady like you.

Hi beanizer, what if you do the crab post as my guest..at least you have a post to do,…heh heh to you too.
ReplyDeleteThat would be a big consolation for Sie and me, each time we go to your blog , it would be a mind boggling time for me, thinking what more to comment on this same post—
OMG, some blogger I knew… your record shows 6 months, so highly unlikely you reach 100 in 10 years from now.. caserra serra .ha ha from me..
Congratulations Wan!Your blog is a true pleasure to visit!
ReplyDeleteLove your posts and thanks for sharing the lovely jokes - I am bad at making them but always enjoy others sense of humor - we could all do with good laughs through the days!
I think Lobster is one of my favorite too but I am never sure how to cook it - maybe you have ideas you like to share.
Celebrate well and enjoy a good meal, yummy cake with candles. Celebrations are great and deserved. Looking forward the 101st!
Take care and have a great day!!
Hello Wan, OUTSTANDING!
ReplyDeleteFelicitations are in order here. The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a person's foot long enough to enable him or her to put the other somewhat higher.
Go on to more....200....2000. Your postings are not only beautiful with the many tempting, sinfully delicious food dishes you have cooked or baked with dexterity, finesse and patience, but shows your sentimentality among all.
They not only inspire, but motivate us, to forget our dieting or to go on enjoy life.
Your pictures tells not one sentence, but one page. As it is not the camera, but the person behind the camera.
Live your life with no excuses, love with no regrets, and keep a song in your heart.
Lee.
Simply beautifully captured shots...lovely colour & moods!
ReplyDeleteCongrats..love your blog and enjoy reading your posts..beautiful picture..hugs:)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Wan. Hope to see you continue blogging and do the next 100 soon.
