By Ken in General on January 23, 2012 : : 4 comments

Happy Chinese New Year! This time of the year, I like to torture my kids by making them dress up in their Asian outfits. Aren’t they cute in the photo above? I think it was of the few photos that didn’t show them rolling their eyes at me. Last year it was the year of [...]

The kids and I saw an online screening of Game of Your Life. It’s a movie about a college freshman named Zach Taylor.

The kids and I watched the new Timmy Time: Hide & Seek DVD (Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment) over the weekend. It’s the first time we’ve seen Timmy Time. We like it!

I’m doing a review of Goody Good Stuff All-Natural Gummies. I don’t usually do candy reviews, but I agreed to review Goody Good Stuff because their product is designed for people with food allergies. Our toddler has all sorts of allergies — including dairy, eggs, nuts, and beef. Thankfully, Goody Good Stuff Gummies are gluten [...]

Warner Bros. sent me a copy of their Unknown DVD for review. I didn’t see the movie when it was at the theaters. To be honest, the 30-second TV trailers (longer, better trailer below) I saw for the movie did not drive me to go watch the movie when it first came out. Luckily, this [...]

Tick tock. Father’s Day is less than a week away. This year, I might get my dad an electronic photo frame. I think he’ll like it — especially if I upload a bunch of photos of his grandkids to the frame. Now that my dad is retired, I can actually see my dad on Father’s [...]

Happy Chinese New Year everyone! It’s the year of the rabbit. I was actually born in the year of the rabbit. Yeah, I know. Being a bunny rabbit isn’t exactly manly. Why couldn’t I have been born in the year of the dragon or tiger? Anyhow, check out Kaboose if you are interested in Chinese [...]
