We've been thinking this through for the past year - contemplating on whether we should create a new YouTube channel for the kids, or just maintain one (and keep our sanity). Because among the three of us at home, we already have too many social media accounts. So the kids and I decided to just maintain one YouTube channel (given that I still have that inactive nappycakes account on it as well) because they all get featured on the blog anyway. So yes, all videos will be under this account (for now, until they are old enough to manage their own channels). I was able to edit the channel name to include this blog. Will figure out more as I read up on YouTube.
So RL has been bugging me to record this Egg Surprise video. If you have a child under 8, then you should know how popular these videos are. My little boy has a list of must-watch YouTubers, and he has them all saved up on his app.
Anyway, I purchased the Inside Out Eggs from a supermarket in Sydney - not sure now if it was Coles or Woolies, but yes, one of 'em. Only got two because I wasn't so sure it would survive my too-full luggage. Teehee. We were set to film this video back in July, but RL got Chicken Pox. So we had to wait out some healing. You can still see two marks on his forehead. Thankfully, the only two marks on his face.
So excuse the amateur editing - you can see my finger on the lens somewhere along the way because RL moved away from view. Enjoy! Oh and yes, thumbs up on YouTube for more, please! And do subscribe. Thanks!
No real eggs were harmed while filming this video.
Not many of you know (well, because I never wrote about it - I've been planning to, but I haven't had time - until now, hehe) about my obsession with this daily vlog on Youtube.
I will reserve the details for another post, because I am writing this in the morning, right before work.
I just wanted to share that my absolute, favorite daily vlogger - JUDY of itsJudysLife (well, one of her many vlogs) took notice of my nori art the other day!
Aside from the Nori Art, which showed Benji (Judy's husband) and the #CoffeeMonday shirt design, I had put a lot of thought into what went on my dinner plate. I didn't have stir-fry or gyudon, so I cooked up a small batch of Spicy Angus Beef Tapa from JAMfoods instead, served it with Kimchi (Benji's favorite side dish), Avocado slices (Judy's fave), half a soft boiled egg (something I learned from Benji's food channel - another one of his faves) and cherry tomatoes (both their favorite!).
Day 227: It is... #CoffeeMonday!!! Missing Coffee Mondays on the vlogs!
So tonight, I thought I'd cut up some nori for dinner to make this deco plate
in honor of the man who started my Monday (and everyday!) Coffee habit - @benjimanfood!
On the plate: Spicy Angus Beef Tapa from @jamfoods, kimchi, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and a soft-boiled egg!
Nori art set on top of cheese and premium Jasponica rice from @donamariarice!
#omnomnom #nommy #soDood @itsjudytime PS. Happy Birthday to Miya and Keira!!!
I posted it right after dinner, thinking they'd probably see it just in time for breakfast on Monday (they live in WA). Lo and behold, the following day (Tuesday here, Monday evening there), Judy replies to KY on Twitter!
You can be sure that KY freaked out. Hehehe.
Yes, my nori art made COMMENT OF THE DAY! How awesome is that??!
A clip from the actual vlog where Judy mentions KY and my Twitter and IG accounts. Yay!
Here is the actual vlog where she mentions my work. Skip to 17:12 if you don't want to watch the whole video. But hey, her kids are cuties so you may want to check them out.
Thanks, Judy! xx
Awesome, awesome day for Bento!

Thanks to the world of Youtube, world-class talents such as twin sisters Janice and
Sonia Lee are now certified singing sensations. Having garnered over 62,111,900
video views around the world, these sisters are showing the world that they've got a
lot of talent and love to offer people who are willing to listen.
In 2008, the duo discovered the world of YouTube. Fascinated by the concept of
connecting with an unseen audience all over the world, they created their first
account under the name "Jayesslee". The name was their attempt to be clever – fusing
both of their initials and spelling it out.
Born and raised in Sydney, Australia to Korean parents, Janice and Sonia never
thought that they would be touring the United States of America, Thailand, Malaysia,
Singapore, Canada and now – for the first time ever – the Philippines!
On June 21, 2012 (Thursday), JAYESSLEE will be stepping out of the virtual world and
will be performing LIVE at 3/F Robinsons Forum (Pioneer) 7:30 in the evening with
their inspiring, feel-good, and passionate music.
Catch them LIVE IN MANILA as they continue their Asian tour in the Philippines!
For tickets, call Ticketworld (891-9999) or BMI Tickets (910-5524).
I never really had a knack for writing. But I kept a journal growing up and I wrote about anything under the sun. Blogging makes journaling easier. Only now, you have readers, and your secrets aren't kept under lock and key.
