A Homemaker’s Diary

How would you like to get luxury watches for people you love at discount price? If you know anyone who love branded and luxury items this is your chance to let them drool over the selection of watches, pens and pencils, luggage, jewelry, clocks, leather, collectibles, eye wear, tools and knives.

For the man in your life, you can get him everything from Swiss Army. They even have 512MB memory stick with retractable ball point pen and LED mini light and Victorinox computer briefcase. I know my husband would love that. And to complete the look of a computer geek but branded, I will buy him Swiss Army watch as well.

Please note that since the company is an authorized dealer for Swiss Army, there is a policy of Swiss Army to not allow their merchandise to be ordered through shopping cart online. So get your phone ready and call their Toll FREE number to place the order.

Plus point, free ground shipping on orders above $50. I’m sure by the time you are done with the shopping the total amount would be more than $50. After all this is luxury items we are talking about.

And if you know anyone who is an avid collector for Montblanc merchandise, check out their page of Montblanc Meisterstuck Solitaire Cufflinks. This would be a perfect choice for Father’s Day present for anyone with branded minded corporate dad!

For the workaholic at heart, this collectible item from Hummel Collector’s Sets And Scapes will be great.

I’m starting a new blog specifically about food. Since I like to cook as much as going out to dine, I think it’s a good idea to share it with other readers who are interested in food as much as I do..haha!

Feel free to drop by at CintaRasa.com anytime. I will write as often as I could. For now I have collected quite a number of pictures (including home cooked meals and how-to pictures)..will be good for anyone learning how to cook at home.

I will write about new restaurant and eating places as well so if you are planning to launch your new restaurant, feel free to invite me to be your food critic..seriously!

I hope with this new blog which caters to Malaysian readers (or for foreigners who are planning to visit Malaysia), it will give new info and fresh perspective about Malaysian food and eating places.

Let’s visit CintaRasa.com and support our local food industries!

I don’t know whether it’s a blessing or not but today and yesterday was extremely hot. Only a few minutes ago when I started to blog for today, the rain is pouring outside.

I was busy today to the fact that the usual client came over for product shooting and like always there will be photo editing, hours of it.

Whenever I use the D50 and take RAW pictures, it will take some times to edit the pictures using the Nikon software. Then after converting it to JPEG, I have to edit some more in Photoshop.

That’s the skill that I have in term of technical, to edit pictures (well, can blogging be considered as technical skill too?! haha..blek)

BTW, the above picture was not what the client sent for product shooting. It’s my latest creation for another client. I’ve started working on it weeks ago and managed to complete it today.

Since I was already taking out the D50 might as well snap some pictures for her to see. Glad she likes it, or otherwise I need to do certain changes.

Anyway, just to let everybody to know that I have launched another Crafts Journal. Feel free to check it out since I have put up my latest creations and some DIY guides to do the crafts.

This journal was started since I have received few requests from people who can’t afford to travel far to attend my class and they would like to learn it online.

Of course due to limitation of words and the ability to describe work of art expressively, I can only share so much with whatever resources I have.

Hubby said I should video my craft lesson so that I can share it online..haha! Well, that will be pondered upon in my next business plan.

I like to plan for things, the implementation of it that I hate to follow through..haha! I have a birthday bash to plan for next month. Since it’s a small party not all will be invited so don’t keep grudge if you are not on the list since the party is not for me but for Hubby..

So now I need to think of the theme, what to serve, who to be invited. Since it’ll be around tea time so I don’t think heavy meals will be needed. I want to put balloons so I need to find balloons and pump. Those birthday boys are old enough so I don’t think we need to have bubble blower..hehe!

What else do I need? Since Pirates of The Carribean 3 is coming out in May, I think I would like to do Pirate theme for the party..check out this page of Pirate Birthday Party ideas…my brain is giggling with tonnes of ideas..

Still thinking, do pirates have balloons for their party?

Though I’m not a fan when it comes to accumulating debt and paying them, I think I have to be grateful for the existence of credit cards. Living in a big city and has no one to turn to in time of needs (especially cash), credit cards can be a real blessing. And like any gift bestowed upon you, misusing it is at your own risks. 🙂

So my point is if you really want to have credit card, make sure you compare credit cards before you apply for one. If you already have a mount of balance from your other credit cards, find a good deal to do some balance transfer especially with interest free credit cards available in the market because by doing the balance transfer and paying it all on time and within the duration, you can save a heap of interest on it, seriously!

And if you are starting out a life as newly wed and plan to buy the dryer, washing machine, fridge and TV, find deals that allow you to make the purchase using 0% credit cards. Locally, I know a credit card that offers up to 24 months of 0% interest free purchase.

Word of wisdom, like any other riches in the world, the plastic money can be good or evil depending on the will of the one who owns it!
