Ruby Tuesday: Rambutan Fruit

Rambutan, anyone? That's still fresh from the in-sink running water in my kitchen place, cooled in a colander. You can even see the water drops on the colander side. How I missed this fruit. This is my first time eaten this, well, here in USA. This red-colored skin/hairy-fruit is a pretty expensive one but I got this in a great deal just for $1.99 per lb and a bag weighed 2.39 lbs and I saved $9.56 all in all. So I grabbed without any hesitation upon seeing it is on-sale or because I bought it in bulk. Imagine that 2.39 lbs! Ha ha! And I ate such alone, DH don't like it. Good for me. Ha!

And you bet, I ate this only at two sittings. Hep!

Ruby Tuesday: Dress, Etc.

Image above was taken last May 10th at my friend Preciel's place. Just forget about the kiddos stuff at my back. Just mind the foods in front. Ha! Okay, just the reds. Is the coat, red or pink? *thinking*  Well, okay it is pink. Talking about the image, my tummy was still small (now Cacai M. is already beyond 130 lbs, that time I was just about 120 lbs, well, blame it to the pregnancy *grin* but that's true) or it wasn't just visible and I was still thin. More so, my hair did not coincide with my face. Ha! Well, was just had my hair done that time and I looked horrible with my new haircut. Oops! But then.. it's prego's like you know. Ha! Alright, we were about to have launch (thanks to the sponsor/host, Preciel *smile*) that time and I felt like I want a picture-taken. So Dorie, my friend, did. Thanks to her, I had this RT entry today. *smile* Anyway, one of my maternity color dress is red. I actually have two red prego dresses (all red). Above and the sleeveless one. Both have almost the same texture. I just felt I like the reds too. Am I then qualified being an RT folk? *wink*

Happy Ruby Tuesday everyone! (Wear red or you'll get pinched! Oops, that's an Irish or St. Patrick's Day's highlight, not Ruby Tuesday. :-) Yeah, you're right. I was just kidding!)

CMP's RT: Red Building

Below is my entry for this day Ruby Tuesday meme. A memory of one of our passed-by there in Los Angeles proper. We got our food there and passed this red big building. I was amazed by its color. It's red hot red all-over! Seems like a coca-cola building but not. It's just simply a building. Not typical building but cool one for me. What do you think?

Above image is the closer look of the building (I zoomed it in) and below is the far part. I was in the front passenger's set while taking this pic. We're in FreeWay.

Happy Ruby Tuesday everyone!

MYM and RT: Beautiful Spring Flowers

It's spring season here in USA. That also means, flowers are blooming everywhere. Even trees changing its color or leaves from winter season. Below is my entry for Mellow Yellow Monday and Ruby Tuesday, the beautiful spring flowers in the neighborhood. I was walking that time and I spotted this bunch of colorful flowers in the yard of one of the apartment complex. Yes, it's just one block away from the complex where DH and I stayed. So, not in the yard of our rented apartment home but a close-by, okay, a neighborhood. Beautiful flowers, isn't it?

Can you resist of not chasing these flowers below? I can't even resist of taking a picture of it. :-) It's beautiful yellows and reds with other colors, no doubt! ;-) I just don't know its name. Anyway, have a great day to all! :-))

My Ruby Tuesday: RED Artificial Flower, House Socks, Etc

It is an after hours (1hr+) late posting this Ruby Tuesday of mine if you think of Eastern Time, but hey, am in Pacific Standard Time, so it is still Tuesday! Yey! So, do you red in there? Come on and share it! Do you love red colors, then go! ;-) Today my entry is for memory of my non-living flowers on my computer table shelf which is located just right level of my forehead when sitting. Along with the other reds together in line are the genuine (yes, not water) Gallo Family Twin Valley wine which I bought two years ago and ended up putting in there since I just bought (along with a cork which it did not moved upon its place) it for me to taste but not actually to drink it (unless if I like the taste, but nope I did not like it, hubby don't drink too so it's for me alone), the red figurine couple and the other stuffs which are not red. Those stuffs I bought in Hallmark Store (minus the wine) for more than two years ago already during February. It was in close-out sale and I had more than of what I got normally (it's expensive you know.. , I usually bought two or three, hehehe! And usually bought greeting cards *wink*) You can see visibly see that in left image below.

And image on the right side is my red house socks which I use sometimes in the morning when I feel pretty cold. It's pretty worn out though I seldom use such (I have couple of house socks), that is because it would also about two years old. :-)

That's all of my share of this RT day folks! Have a great day!

My Ruby Tuesday: Ice Cream Scope and Cars Lights

How are you everyone? It is Tuesday once again. What one of those I love on this day is a lot of red posts especially the participants of Ruby Tuesday. It is also some kind of customary of posting pictures with red colors. Now, let us share some rubies! And below is my share:

A red handle ice cream scope and the cars back red lights.

I am one of those folks who love ice cream even if the weather is cold. Okay, I may never eat when I feel cold. But hello, am inside the house and I feel the comfort of the heater so no way, I feel cold. Ha! Okay, that is wrong, I can feel cold inside the house but not mostly. Meaning, I also craved cold foods even cold weather and ice cream is just one of those. And I so love the ice cream scope as a help instead of just spoon of getting such on its container.

And so, happy Tuesday! Have more rubies! ;-)

My Ruby Tuesday

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday! How's everyone doing? How's your Tuesday so far? Is Tuesday treating you well?

Alright, one of what am looking forward of this day is the Ruby Tuesday as in RED colors of stuffs. I love red you know.. :-) What I can remember when it is Tuesday is this theme. I can still remember though it has been long time I haven't been into memes. Nevertheless because am back. :-) This time, my entry is our bathroom stuffs as what you can see above. I love it because it is bright red. As in I have it as color coding, oops! I mean, all red in one setting. Don't you love it? Don't you love red? Now, show me or tell me what have you have. Or do you have like the shoes below? :-)

Ruby Tuesday: Red Flowers, Etc

It is already Tuesday. How is weekdays treating you so far folks? I hope all are everything's great and handled with care. :) Though on my end I have some backlogs to do but that is fine, good luck to me. Ha! I still have to go to pharmacy after this and was smiling lately as thinking that the sun would give me a break. Yes, I was hoping that I can have my brisk walk and also going to buy some medicine without the scorching heat of the sun but ooh well, it is brightly shining now again. But no biggie deal, I can handle it. ;-) For now, my ruby Tuesday is red flowers. Never mind the lady posed above the ruby flowers, she is just a frustrated model. Aw.. :)

This photo above was taken three weeks ago in the name of flowers and red. The photographer cannot get off its eyes on the ruby flowers that was why she strike a shot for me there, glad I had it. :) That is actually a simple party from a friend. And the photo below is unplanned ruby dress outfit for a little get-together.

Me with my friends and cutie baby Selina. Can you find me here? One blogger and a very good friend of mine is also here. It is guessing time! Guess.. ;-)

My Ruby Tuesday: Cases

Nope, it is not cold beer or soft drink cases but red video camera case and a cellphone (front and back) cases of mine. I don't know about yours but in our hometown or in our particular place before, when we say case it refer to beer or soft drink cases.. haha.. yeah, we know it's not but we just like to have it that way. So when you want to refer to a particular case, you should have to put some first word or what that case is or we mean it as what I told you.. ;-) So time for reds showcase.. I have two (2) images below which describe or show some reds and as always you can enlarge images through clicking it (should you like to do so).

Image #1: red video cam case

Aside from the small black case (bigger than a case above) for our video cam which can accommodate to carry its accessories like blank CD's for recording, USB wire, battery charging wire and other video cam accessories (oops not including tripod --- that's big enough for that small case or pouch). That is by the way, can only carry the video cam itself and can be put in the other case altogether with the other accessories. When I don't like to bring the other accessories, I simply carry this red case.

Image #2: Deep red Cellphone/mobile phone case

I do not like the original blue case of my mobile phone and unfortunately the original red case which could come with the phone were out of stock already so I just have to settle for blue. What I did was to look online a red case which suits its measurement or like my blue case, only it is red. And I found it (the better was I got a good deal but of the same quality). Am all of smile.. *wink*..
Have a great Tuesday folks! Happy chasing rubies! ~hugs&kisses~

My Ruby Tuesday #15: Lip Glosses and Cake Art

An entry of mine today are pinky ruby-red two pieces of lip glosses which one of the surprise gifts I got on my birthday from a dearie virtual blogger friend (madam sis Dhemz) of mine. ;-) I so love it because it wears like a lipstick that looks like what it is, a gloss. These "Too Faced" glamour gloss comfort my dried and cracked lips and I felt comfortable whenever I wear it. Looks cozy to me and yep, it does.

Then came my red velvet birthday birthday cake which has an art on top of its icing, an art red stand which says "happy birthday". Then my birthday completed. ;-) A should have a cake, isn't it? What more could I ask if I felt and saw a lot of reds and lavender (my fave color) on my special day? Ha! You bet... ;-)

So then, have a great Ruby Tuesday folks! Smile and have fun chasing at rubies.. :)

My Ruby Tuesday #14: Bougainvillea and Etc

Heyya folks, happy Tuesday all! How's this day is treating you so far? Hope all are well despite of the circumstances.. lol.. So, are you having fun with rubies today? I hope.. On this side of mine, I am having fun chasing up on it. My entry for today was taken a week (my birth date) ago while going down to our city's shopping centers (two blocks or four minutes away where DH and I lives) to do something with DH shopping gift for me. While heading there, I saw a tree of bougainvillea plant so full of its red flowers, as in seems like there's no leaves no more but just its flowers. So pretty looking that I can't help myself get my phone and took some shots (with flash and none). And just fortunate enough that it is near to a signage "Do Not Enter" on that side because it's an exit way and along with near on it was a Budweiser panel with its red signage. By the way, on the right side is a three-story building of parking lot for folks who wants to shop or anything, though it is not that visibly seen but if you really take a look enough on the dark side (parking lot pic without flash that's why it's dark), there is that red car in there. Ooh well, it's full of reds, that is why it is a great fun day of reds not to mention is was my birthday too.. ;-) So, it just coincided.. ;-)

Below is a solo pic of the very lovely bougainvillea red flowers on the right side of an entrance of parking lot building. Actually, there were many red bougainvilleas I saw that day blooming and just freely showing its beauty to peeps or to nature... ;-) Ha! :) Don't you mesmerize of its beauty? Don't you think it's cute? Ooh well.. ;-)

Have a great ruby day folks! Smile and have fun! ... ;-)

My Ruby Tuesday #13: Red Flowers and Beyond

When I think of Tuesday, what comes on my mind next is ruby... ahh Ruby Tuesday! Time for ruby hunting folks.. how was that? ;-) When it comes to flowers, red can't be beaten.. it's just so beautiful when there is red! Though I do not know the name of the spring flowers below, still I took a phone shot because it is so lovely. I was doing my brisk walking at our neighborhood at the same time went on to shopping centers just looking for something, oops! I was just having a window shopping and chasing reds with these flowers, okay? ;-)

This was a left side garden of a pathway of one of apartment complex in the block. Yeah, reds. ;-) Do you know what is its name?

Yep, a mini-tree of mini-roses in our rented apartment complex ground. It was planted by the way in a fountain aquarium which eventually the landlord turned it into a garden as in instead of placing water and fish on it, they place soil and plants.. whatta garden! ;-) This was by the way taken last year's Christmas time (2009) which unfortunately the roses are beginning to fell down already. Ooh well, it is still red! Ha ha ha! ;-) Those were so pretty before it turned like that because all flowers were in full bloom and attached with each other, seems like a bouquet.. ooh well... :)

And another red pa-cute entry above which apparently inside the red roses. I was doing my thing in my cellphone when suddenly I bumped into artsy stuffs feature and I did an above image. Isn't that cute moi in a hearty-heart red flowers? LOL.. just having fun folks.. So then, have a great Ruby Tuesday! Have fun hunting rubies.. ;-)

My Ruby Tuesday #12 : RED Buses

Weeks or months ago, DH and I went to downtown Los Angeles to get our fave ordered foods (fried tilapia, red beans and rice, french fries, plantain, fried catfish, collard greens, peach cobbler, pink lemonade, and alike) in his fave food chain near his house in Los Angeles (before) --- that was afternoon (we usually eat our lunch at two o'clock PM). And off we went after fifteen minutes after he ordered it. It is fifteen minutes to reach our destination but before that when we were about to be at such area, the red traffic light was on and we waited with some cars with the red light. It where I got a chance to capture (I captured it through my phone) one of Los Angeles red buses which you can see below.

One of Los Angeles red bus line with red car in the right corner

Yep, that's one of the buses that transports public passengers from one place to another. That actually has a lot of design and what you can see above is one of the cool design I have seen. It's pretty neat and shiny red. ;-) It's really cool because it is not bad for the eyes (some red are just too bright). You can also see at the right corner from my position (am at passenger's set at the car) that there is also a beautiful red car. Red is just so beautiful and attracts attention in its simple way. And other red bus below which is far more bigger than above(it's not really visible how big it is in an image but I telly you, it is such big in person) and has a lot of doors was a bus that I saw in the neighborhood parked at the large back of the shopping centers. Yes, the parking lot is for rent. And I guess they rent it for just few nights as to what the security guard (I talk to the guard after I bought something at nearby shopping place) said that they are from a show entitled "Parenthood" and they were filming at our place from one are to another (for a change)... I was pretty amazed of its doors, many doors it has to which it lead me to saw the other folks doing (busy cooking at their respective big beautiful booths. Ooh well, I guess those were just minor casts. There are many beautiful motor homes at that time in such particular place. I was unfortunate enough to see how they filmed in person. I just remembered one time I was with my DH (after new year 2010) in his work place, there's filming about a news at their big ground. It was such a cool coincidence.. ;-)

big bus (looks like a big motor home too) with many doors

That's all folks! Have a great hunting for rubies this Tuesday! Have fun... ;-)

My Ruby Tuesday #11: RED Flowers

Yes, it's ruby day today as in "Ruby Tuesday" indeed besides that this day is the beginning day of my monthly visitor... weee.. and am here still wide awake for my ruby entry. *winkz* That is how I am anxious of having my Ruby Tuesday from being away for how many weeks of not playing. :-) I was busy with listia and all those stuffs.. lol.. For now, these are the RED flowers I took just days after spring has sprung.

An above flower seems like a version of small poinsettia which I saw in the corner of one of the neighborhood blocks where I live. Those are very lovely ones with its big leaves (I guess this is really poinsettia but am not so sure) and red on the near red buds at the top of such flowers to which am expecting you just looking at it. Well, even without looking it nearly, you can tell, right? :-)

This other group of red flowers in the corner of the street is lovely too! Those are cutie reds.. I do not know its name but really, is pretty lovely.

And this lovely roses is what I got from my DH more than two weeks ago. By the way, this is my first fresh flower from him. LOL. On the record... weeee.. Not be conceited, but really those are pretty reds too!

I hope you have fun in chasing my reds.. :-) Do you have reds there too? Come on, show your reds.. *winkz* Have fun red hunting folks.. Enjoy....
