Have you ever named a room in your house? “Casbah” is a word that I have heard in movies and in music. I watched an old movie, released in 1948 titled “Casbah” (https://youtu.be/9YwjraXLESk) and it was set in Algiers. There was also a song I liked during my teen years called “Rock the Casbah” (https://youtu.be/bJ9r8LMU9bQ). Will Smith sampled it on one of his songs (https://www.whosampled.com/sample/958/Will-Smith-K-Ci-Will-2K-The-Clash-Rock-the-Casbah/). Casbah is also…
I usually watch K-drama series. But I found a Korean drama movie to watch called “Love, Lies” (2016). WARNING!! DO NOT watch this movie if you don't want to be bummed out! I know K-drama always have love triangle. But this is the saddest love story I have ever seen in my life! And I have watched a lot of movies over the years. It takes place during the Japanese occupation of Korea or rather Joseon (1943). Two girls ~ Jung So-yul (played by Han Hyo-joo), and Seo Yeon-hee…
WELCOME OCTOBER! In the USA, October is the month we celebrate Halloween, pizza, and apples. I especially like the fact that October is National Apple Month. It was founded as National Apple Week in 1904 and later expanded to the entire month of October. My favorite apples are golden delicious, Fuji, and New Zealand apples. However, if I am going to make candied apples, the best apple to use for that recipe is MacIntosh. Do you have a favorite apple?

#cryptonews Kim Kardashian will pay $1.3 million to SEC over crypto touting Per BLOOMBERG CRYPTO REPORTS She broke US rules by touting a crypto token without disclosing she was paid for the promotion. She was paid $250,000 to promote EMAX tokens. I am in agreement with this judgment. In the interest of Consumer Protection, ALL ads are required to say "Paid Endorsement". Why did she think she could be excused from the requirement?…

Not all crypto projects end up being legitimate, so it’s important to understand how to protect yourself from common scams. “One common scam in the crypto space is called a “rug pull,” where a developer or creator will promote a project such as a new coin or NFT release and then disappear with investor money. The perpetrators of rug pulls are difficult to track down after the fact, as the decentralized and pseudonymous nature of blockchain allows those involved to conceal…

For the Korean drama fans out there. Here is my list of K-drama movies. Some are cheesy. Some are real serious. With the exception of one film, they are all historical period dramas. 1. Commitment (2013) 2. The Grand Heist (2012) 3. Memories of the Sword (2015) 4. The King's Letters (2019) 5. The Pirates (2014) 6. The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure (2022) 7. The Royal Tailor (2014) Not sure what streaming service you can use. I found them on Viki and Tubi.

TRADING BOTS I would consider using trading bots as part of my #investing strategy.

It's called TradeSanta. It was on an official Top 10 List…

Courtesy and respect is very important in any community.

What is life verse? A life verse is a portion of God's Word that can serve as a guiding principle or them for your life. I have several life verses. But when I get up to do work on my laptop this is the verse that guides me throughout the day. ** “Work hard and cheerfully at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord and not for people ...” (Colossians 3: 23-24) Do you have a life verse? It doesn't have to be from the Bible. That's just where I get mine from.

KOREAN DRAMA TV SERIES: Under the Queen's Umbrella Netflix just added another original K-drama series. I only watched one episode to get the idea of what the plot is all about.

Meanwhile, there are some other K-dramas that I did not finish watching and before I knew it they had been deleted. They are not on…

Made an executive decision today. I decided to keep my Bitcoin Cash address and delete all of my other Donation addresses. Don't get me wrong.

I'm cool with that. How about you?
HERBS AND SPICES: Myths about Thyme #DidYouKnow: The ancient Greeks would set aside a bed of thyme or a patch in the herb garden as a home for fairies. The term fairy dates back to the Europeans in the Middle Ages, however, “...the earliest form of faeries can be found loosely in the mythical beings in Greek mythology, such as the nymphs, satyrs and sileni.” (Source: TimelessMyths ~ http://www.timelessmyths.com/celtic/faeries/) #cooking #food #foodie

“The Truth About Charlie” (2002) is a movie which starred Mark Wahlberg and Thandie Newton. When the movie was being advertised in the media, I listened to an interview with Mark Wahlberg discussing his character. He played an American agent who was assigned to a post in #Paris, #France. He said to make his character more believable, he decided to wear a beret. He figured since he was an American agent performing “undercover” activities, wearing the beret might help him…
Claude Monet (1840 – 1926) and Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841 – 1919) are the two artists recognized as the founders of the art form known today as "Impressionism".

Growing up what did most of our mothers do to get us to eat our vegetables? Bribe us. They would promise we would get dessert if we just eat all of the vegetables on our plate. Funny thing though. My mom never served zucchini. I wonder why. She liked yellow squash and that's in the same vegetable family. I did not discover zucchini until my first year at university. It was served to me in a muffin. From there it was just a matter of finding out all of the different ways that…
Ever since I was taught how to read, I have loved reading fairy tales. As an adult I did some research about these stories and it turns out that initially, they were not written for children and the original tale was rather dark and gruesome. Over a long period of time they evolved and became the “kinder and gentler” fairy tales that we know read today. In England, Joseph Jacobs (1854-1916), is considered the “father of fairy tales”. He is credited with collecting them and…
