Keeping a dog as pet is a big responsibility, they are not just like your playmate or stress reliever. You need to take care of them by giving them proper food and nutritious diet. Regular exercise may also help to keep your dog healthy and in good shape, long walk is a very good exercise for them or playing with a ball.
With the technology today fitness machine are not only made for human, there are also dog treadmill which is made for dogs fitness, this is one of the best alternative when you don’t have time to take your dog for a walk at night or in the morning. A dog treadmill is a good substitute but it doesn’t fully replace long walk or run for your dog though this machine will help to keep your dog in good shape.

I am being careless these past few days I took my newly charged camera the other night to the gym to take some photos. Today when I went out to pay our utility bills I carry it with me and hile walking around I have thought of snapping some photos and in my surprised my camera doesn’t power on, it was low battery.
Maybe I forgot again to turn the camera off the last time I have used it because that what also happened a few days ago, when I opened my camera bag I have found out that the camera was already on. My husband just shake his head while telling me that’s how things go bad. Argh, I was not able to take some shots outside today!

I just find this picture below cute, Kimchi is sleeping with the eggs below our abuhan (stove). We are looking for her but we can’t find her around and when I went to the kitchen I saw her peacefully sleeping so I didn’t waste any time and I look for my camera to take a picture. Dunno what she thinks, my sister and mother says maybe Kimchi is thinking she is a chicken but I think she just find solace and warm in the chicken’s nest.
So every time she is missing around we already know where to find her. Probably we are not going to be surprised anymore if the eggs hatched early. Hehe

Another week ends and that means cheat day, after a short walk we just took a quick shower and went out to go to the bank and afterwards we went to Nong Hyup supermarket to buy butter but we also ended up buying chips as well.
We then visited Tae Guk Dung to buy brown bread but it turns out they don’t have so I only bought chocolate muffins and we then went to the nearby Paris Baguette where we buy most of our baked goods.
After it we went to GS25 to buy some food, so we feasted on a lot of food like smoked chicken, pizza, noodles and chocolates.

For the first time my husband allowed me to eat clams inside our apartment actually at first he didn’t want me to buy the mussels but later on he agreed. He is somehow worried of the stench, but I told him clams/mussels doesn’t smell unlike dried fish.
Mussels can be cooked by steaming, grilling or baking them but I just boiled mine with salt and dropped two heads of garlic after washing them thoroughly. When it was cooked I ate my lunch and as expected I ate a lot, yeah right I love seafood so much. I felt sick after eating though maybe because I ate a I almost ate them all in one meal but I have thought my husband, so I left a few which I also ended eating up because my he doesn’t like it.

We walked around the town according to our schedule and when we passed by the Emart Everyday we went inside to buy chicken breast and other food supplies that we need. We are not supposed to buy large carton of milk but when we saw Seoul Milk, two for a price of one and the expiration is going to be month from now my husband told me to get it. So I did, since I wasted milk (not drinking before the expiration) I only buy the small carton which is two glasses.

We only visit the gym three times a week and every second and fourth day of the week we are walking around the town. It became our habit before our vacation in the Philippines. Below is the photo I have taken the other day while we are doing our routine in the late afternoon, the trees are all in yellow colors.
The weather is already cold as expected so I am already wearing my winter jacket when we are walking, and of course I am not going to forgot to bring my camera.

When I arrived in our neighborhood what caught me is the tiny little dogs that are wandering to seek for food. They are very tiny that could be mistaken for chihuahua but they are not because they are local dog. I think they are too small because they didn’t get enough milk from the mother dog or they are not able to drink the first milk from their mother which is called colostrum.
Colostrum is the important first milk in puppies which provides nutrition, fluids, and immunity from disease causing organisms. Dogs and cats, like many other mammals, pass the majority of the maternal antibodies to the newborn via colostrum. Defined as the first 24 hours of milk flow following birth, colostrum is a highly concentrated mixture of large protein antibody molecules, water, vitamins, electrolytes, and nutrients
My Uncle who owns the dog call them Brahman’s dunno where did he get the name it is from the cow’s breed or from watching cartoons during day time.

Friday is day for cheating in our diet, even it is cold and raining outside I went out to buy pizza and spaghetti. We didn’t buy chicken anymore because it was too expensive and instead of buying baked goods we had set of chocolates for dessert.
I went to 59 pizza to order our food and instead of waiting I went home because the pizza parlor is quite small and there’s already someone waiting. I can’t go to a store and buy something because I bought the chocolates first before ordering the pizza. I had small bulgogi pizza and spaghetti while my husband has pepperoni with cheesy crust.

My family has four cats, two of them are grown up male and the other two are kittens from different mother cat. They got the other one from my aunt and the other one from a friend. When I arrived in our home one of the first thing I have asked was the name of the cats it turns out the two kittens has no name yet so I named them Soju and Kimchi.
Soju was for the male kitten and Kimchi for the female one which is the smaller. The picture below was taken on one fine day while we are in our backyard looking for the laborers removing the coconut roots. The kitten went out as well as they are like dogs they want to go where ever we want to go.
Probably Soju (the kitten sitting in the piece of wood) is in the mood for play so he keeps playing with Kimchi’s tail the thing though Kimchi is not feeling well as you can see she looks very pale and thin. She is sick for few days already, had a fever too on the last few days. So she is quite uncool when Soju plays with her tail.
