June 2008 Giveaway
Congratulation to our May giveaway winner Wendy. I hope you will like the cute earrings! And thanks to Angie Hearts Boutique for sponsoring the prize. (Please check out Angie Hearts Boutique’s June giveaway as well. They are giving away one Silver Beaded Seashell Clutch Evening Bag!)

For our June giveaway, the prizes are: (1) Burt’s Bees Rosemary Mint Shampoo Bar + Peppermint Shower Soap; (2) Burt’s Bees Hand Salve, Lemon Butter Cuticle Creme & Beeswax Lip Balm.
Summer is here. So for this month’s question, please tell me what is your favorite food in the summer. Please be specific with your answer. For example, if you answer ice cream, please tell me the flavor of the ice cream.
My favorite food in the summer is corn + watermelon. I love anything corn… BBQ corn, corn chowder, corn salad, etc. How can you not love corn? It’s just so sweet and… squishy. I just like biting into corn and how the juice just spits out. Watermelon is the best fruit to eat in the summer. It has to be ice cold though. I also like watermelon juice. Talking about corn and watermelon is making me miss Taiwan more. I really miss having a grill corn in one hand and watermelon juice in another while walking around the night market.
So… What is your favorite summer food? 你在夏天最喜歡吃的東西是什麼呢?

好一陣子沒參加抽獎了(想說不會那麼好運中兩次) 剛好現在有缺護手霜跟護脣膏…
夏天愛吃的好多 一下子沒辦法挑出最愛 所以我決定寫我現在想吃的(咦?還沒夏天嗎?)
天氣熱的話泰國料理一定是王道阿 沒辦法具體描述哪一道 因為只要夠酸辣都好 不然就算青木瓜沙拉好了
冰品的話挫冰芋圓米苔目我通通愛 但是現在最想吃冰豆花加花生跟粉圓

啊! 居然不小心錯過上個月的give away!
夏天吃冰涼又甜甜又沙沙的西瓜是王道! 我也超愛的, 一次吃1/4顆完全不是問題! 夏天當然也要BBQ, 吃完再吃碗剉冰或冰豆花加粉圓花生都好讚喔~ 簡單一點來杯天仁的檸檬草莓冰沙也是一個棒!

Ha~ Green Bean Sweet Soup is definitely one of my favorite food in summer~ I will make a huge pot and then put it in the fridge~ i also like to add some barley and seaweed in the soup to enrich its texture~ ^.^

I like 涼麵!!!

Summer – Of course, Taiwanese Style Shaved Ice..well, actually I love all kind of Ice deserts in summer. Well, but if you remember, our moms always tell us not to have cold drinks or ice cream because they are not good for your body (specifically for Female). I remember my grandmother always gives me warm water. You know what? I never listened to them. Now, I wish I had listened to them. As I get older, I feel the difference. Hence, my favorite summer food becomes – Watermelon (Eileen is right, ice cold only), salad, hot dog with onion and ketchup , and apple.

夏天喔,
鹹食應該是喜歡吃口味更重的東西
像川菜的水煮系列跟台灣的三杯系列(雖然後者這裡好吃的比較少)
甜食的話我很喜歡吃sprinkles跟frozen yogurt
喔喔喔還有加了一堆碎冰的豆花或是thai tea
好多好多喔~對了我沒在你網址看過介紹sprinkles
Eileen現在在ktown工作那離sprinkles稍微近一點了
你可以去試試看它們家的cup cake喔
我很喜歡它家的red velvet口味
有機會你可以去吃吃看,每天有的口味都不一樣
可以先上網看看 http://www.sprinklescupcakes.com/
推薦給你喔^^我一年多之前吃第一次之後就每隔一陣子都會犯cupcake癮了

summer food? um…I like juice…any kind of juice…I like using my mom’s juicer to make my own juice…sometimes it’s apple+banana, pineapple+grape, or only watermelon
I really enjoying mixing different kinds of fruit into juice ^__^
and it’s such a joy drinking icy cold juice during summer ^0^
