			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The weekend is almost here and you are already wondering where to take your special someone to. Learning from last week’s experience, you know that bringing that person to the haunted house in the amusement park which is filled with realistic zombies was a great idea. In fact, she was still asking for more of it if not only for your legs getting numb after running the whole day between various locations in the amusement park. You thought to yourself that maybe you just overdid your leg but regardless, the important thing was your date was happy. The night ended with her lips on your cheeks and a sweet smile and parted you with the words “I am looking forward to this coming weekend”. It sounded like an automatic yes for another date even without you asking but at the same time, you knew that the next place should be more than what she went through.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately, for some reason, your head was not working right now. It might be because you ate too much lasagna earlier lunchtime or maybe your brain dead after doing like an almost two hour overtime for three consecutive days. This is so that you could have pocket money on your next date and at the same time go by the whole week and the next without starving and keeping the lights in your place. The good news is that you do not need to bother yourself too much on where you would be enjoying yourselves next.</p>
<div id="attachment_431" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 330px"><img class="size-full wp-image-431" title="Yummy Lasagna" src="http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Yummy-Lasagna.jpg" alt="Yummy Lasagna" width="320" height="320" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Lasagna by freerecipes.org</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are a lot of places where you could watch the stars and have sandwich together. You could go to Europe and spend some <a href="http://www.cupid.com/local-singles/uk/Bridgend/Bridgend.html" target="_blank">Bridgend dating</a>. There are a lot of pretty neat establishments to spend the evening at perhaps with some exquisite wine by the candle-lit. If your date loves adventures then you can take a vacation in one of the exotic places in the Caribbean. This will surely jump start her imagination and treasure-hunting personality.<span style="text-align: justify;">In case you prefer something local, then perhaps a trip to the zoo would work this time. Take some memorable photographs of you and your love one along with some animals you do not see everyday. Just be careful not to get the wrong kind of attention in the wilds.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Pyrite <a href="http://www.beadsbarn.com/" target="_blank">beads</a> are something that a lot of people will buy because they look like gold. They are also known as “fool’s gold.” This is because they are a natural gold or a dark grey color. They can be dyed to be many other colors too. This will tend to give it a textured look when they get dyed. There are many options that a jewelry maker will have when they run across this bead.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One difference between this “fools gold” and real gold is that it is much lighter. It is also much harder. The pyrite beads will not get scratched by fingernails or pocket knives. Some people say that they have a pale brass-yellow color to it. This is a color that glistens when the light hits it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Possibilities are endless when making jewelry out of this lovely pyrite material. The beads can be in any shape or color. They can be used to make necklaces with the beautiful pendants that are created with this. This will also look great when used with other types of beads.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Some people say that this has a marbled look to it. Sometimes this will look like this because of the different shades within one piece. This is adored by a lot of people. This is because it gives off a very rich look. Someone who cannot afford real good can pretend with these lovely pyrite beads.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The pyrite will sparkle if another lump of pyrite hits it. In the Stone Age, these were used to make fire. This is a very unique type of stone that can be made into any shape. There are round beads, nuggets, teardrops and more. There are certain shapes that this can be made into such as heart, skulls or animals. This is one bead that can be made into almost anything. Beadsbarn.com is your official source for quality beads.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">We discovered this place on the same day that we had dinner at <strong>Yumemiya Japanese Cafe</strong> but was not able to post it right away. <img src='http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I decided to make a separate post for it so please read on&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Cocoa with Rocksalt and Cheese</em> was really awesome and I&#8217;m getting excited to have my sister try it. For sure she will love it, too! The creamy frothe blends well with delicious cocoa drink. As for <em>Oreo Cookies and Cream Coffee</em>, I don&#8217;t like it that much.</p>
<div id="attachment_422" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 314px"><img class="size-full wp-image-422 " title="DSC02025_HappyLemonCRSC" src="http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/DSC02025_HappyLemonCRSC.jpg" alt="Happy Lemon - Cocoa with Rocksalt and Cheese" width="304" height="406" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Happy Lemon - Cocoa with Rocksalt and Cheese</p></div>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Since it was my first time at Happy Lemon, Greenhills Promenade I took some flyers to easily see the drinks or flavors available. I even learned some stuff about Happy Lemon through that little history print out.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Happy Lemon started in 2006 in Hong Kong and now has over 100 outlets spread across Hong Kong, China and other Asian countries. It aims to provide consumers with a lifestyle experience, interweaving quality beverage choices with popular culture.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Happy Lemon ensures to deliver yummy and quality drinks. The creative infusion of coffee, selected tea leaves, cocoa and lemon makes every drink unique and tasty.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are already running out of ideas especially when it comes to giving gifts for someone special, you can go for basket making. Not only basket making gives you the opportunity to be innovative but it will help you develop your artistic side. You can also choose to make various baskets like gourmet gift baskets, holiday gift baskets, baby gift baskets and many more. If you prefer to forego the trouble of making one, you always have the option to go online and search.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The various kinds of baskets have their own perks depending on the occasion or what they are made for with gourmet basket being the general choice. Most gift baskets have luxurious wine, chocolates, and personally made cookies and or crackers. Gourmet gift baskets may also come with other goodies like smoked salmon, cheese, jelly and your usual Christmas ham.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-397" title="Gourmet Deluxe Gift Basket" src="http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Gourmet-Deluxe-Gift-Basket.png" alt="Gourmet Deluxe Gift Basket" width="286" height="311" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are preparing for a coming holiday, like Christmas, Hannukah, Jewish New Year, Valentine’s Day or your regular new year, you can go for the holiday gift baskets. You can include heart-shaped chocolates and some prestigious wine for Valentine gift baskets. If for example you are looking forward to give someone celebrating the Jewish New Year, you can give them a <a href="https://www.swerseys.com/occasion/Rosh-Hashanah-Gifts-9.html" target="_blank">Jewish New Year gift baskets</a> containing signature chocolates, or an executive VIP luxury wine. You can even include some gift tower if you want. If you are looking for something to add in the basket for someone’s birthday, you can even combine the elements mentioned above and add your own design or idea on it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Overall, giving a gift basket is a good idea if you want to keep yourself from going for the more traditional ones.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Rei and KC have been so kind to us eversince and we are really thankful when this couple invited us for a double date at Yumemiya Japanese Cafe on Rei&#8217;s birthday. One of the owners of this cafe is a friend of Rei&#8217;s sister so they decided to give it a try.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Japanese resto has an inviting and cozy atmosphere. But one thing for sure, it didn&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re in Japan until you taste your food. Lol. I wasn&#8217;t able to get more photos since I don&#8217;t have my DSLR with me and my phone was running out of battery during that time. I managed to shoot these two though:</p>

<p>And the rest of these photos are grabbed from KC:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">My boyfriend and I had one of the best midnight snacks together &#8211; pancake. We usually have it for breakfast, hence my FB status goes like this:</p>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;"><p>Pancake for midnight snack! Feels like breakfast! Really love the rain tonight&#8230; Perfect!</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The rain made it memorable. Lol. Kidding. It&#8217;s us. Isn&#8217;t it fun to cook something or prepare a meal with your love one? Now, that&#8217;s simply romantic just when I thought that Valentine is over! Haha.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We used MAYA complete hotcake mix:</p>

<p><span style="text-align: justify;">We just added one egg to make it tastier.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="Maya Hotcake Mix" src="http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n38/l_i_z_b01/Couplestrip%20Images/MayaHotcakeMixandEgg.jpg" alt="Maya Hotcake Mix with Egg" width="384" height="288" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It&#8217;s very easy to prepare since you just have to follow the steps at the back of the package. But because we added an egg, we carried out additional steps.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="MAYA and Egg for Hotcake" src="http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n38/l_i_z_b01/Couplestrip%20Images/MAYAandEggforHotcake.jpg" alt="MAYA and Egg for Hotcake" width="384" height="288" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">

<div id="_mcePaste">4. Slightly oil pan and heat for 3 minutes or until medium hot.</div>

<div id="_mcePaste">6. Cook until bubbly ( 2-3 minutes).</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">7. Turn and cook the other side.</div>

<p style="text-align: justify;">I forgot to take a picture of my first hotcake served hot with condensed milk. Hehe. So this would be my second serving. See those crumbs? <img src='http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="  " title="MAYA_Pancake" src="http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n38/l_i_z_b01/Couplestrip%20Images/MAYA_Pancake.jpg" alt="MAYA_Pancake" width="384" height="288" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are looking for something exotic to cook you can never go wrong with <a href="http://www.asiafoodrecipe.com/">Asian cooking recipes</a>. Asian cuisine has become one of the world’s finest cooking recipes that people from all over the world want to learn. Most sought after Asian recipes are usually from Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, China, India and the Philippines. One thing about Asian cuisine is that most of their dishes include rice as their staple side dish. This is especially true in the Philippines while noodles are more common in Japan and China. In fact, rice and noodles are cooked in different styles. In fact, some rice meals are served with meat and vegetable toppings. Asian recipes are so delicious and exquisite that you will find yourself asking for more.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-370" title="Asian Cooking Recipes" src="http://www.couplestrip.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Asian-Cooking-Recipes.png" alt="Asian Cooking Recipes" width="532" height="341" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are planning to learn cooking Asian cuisine, it is important that you buy the ingredients that are fresh from the market. Herbs and spices are often part of Asian dishes. In ages past, people do not even need to purchase most of these ingredients. People usually have a garden at their backyards and they just pick the fruits and vegetables that they need for a certain recipe. The great thing about today’s technology is that learning how to cook Asian dishes is easy. You can simply access the internet and browse over countless recipes available in various websites. Just remember that when you are cooking something for the first time, it is better to put the spices pinch by pinch. This will keep the food from tasting too salty or bitter. At the same time, if you think that it lacks flavor then you could always add more until you get the right taste. You should also learn how to taste what you are cooking.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Overall, looking for exquisite Asian cooking recipes is not a difficult task. Just do your assignment and you will be fine. Preparing an Asian cuisine will always be a rewarding experience.</p>
