Think your Firebox is BORING? Get it a Persona!

Literally.

Personas allow you to choose (note: Mozilla will release an api to create them in web content later) a lightweight theme for your Firefox browser.

So how do you get started?
1) Starting from an ordinary browser...


2) Download from Mozilla Labs' project site for Personas by clicking on "Get Personas for Firefox - Free". Note: It works for Linux, Windows, and Mac (well, duh). You can review the available designs in greater detail there by clicking "More Information -> Available Designs".

3) Remember to restart Firefox upon finishing the download (you will be prompted anyway). You can always check whether your download was successful by going to your Firefox browser's "Tools Menu -> Adds-on". You can see the pretty little firefox icon for Personas under the "Extensions" tab.

4) Or you can see the tiny fox icon at the bottom left of your browser (circled red). Click on it and you can see all offered themes.

5) Choose your favourite, and voila. A pretty new browser. I like the Foxkeh series. For the purpose of the tutorial, I chose Foxkeh Hanabi. If you ever change your mind (or decide to become grey and boring again), click on the tiny little fox icon on the bottom left and choose "Use Default").

Support me by downloading my skin MenchiDreams メンチの 夢幻.

Skipping out on the Company event and overloading on Calories

On Christmas Eve, I had a gastronomically decadent escape with my girls to Jones the Grocer @ Dempsey Road. Instead of getting soaked to the skin in the monsoon rains trying to play treasure hunt (I kid you not, while secretly gloating at their misery, I asked some hapless attendees of their wet experience, and they all pulled faces longer than Bottom's. I knew better you see, since I was privy to the luncheon details already, so I made sure that we skip out. Just think, they had it al fresco style.) we were enjoying a marvelous breakfast with lots of delicious calorie-laden yummies, like the typical English fry-up which I had for S$20++. The other girls also enjoyed a smoked salmon breakfast @ S$14.50++.
Bloody marvelous I do say. A bit ex, considering the rapidly thinning wallets and the gruesome economy on the horizon. But what the hell, me likey.

Saturday Munchies 4 - Lazy Bake Lemony Peach Tart



Was lazy and wanted to figure how much time would be saved if I would use a readymade dough. So I baked a Lemony Peach Tart, which involves me soaking canned peaches in lemon juice and zest and rolling out readymade puff pastry dough.

Was not too bad a process, except the dough was a bit tough to roll out, and by the time I was ready, my sweet peaches had turned into sour peaches, which Town Mouse didn't like. Fussy stomach.

Ewwww, what are these? Housekeeping Treasures

Talk about a triumph of housekeeping. Mother decided to springclean the kitchen shelves, and found tucked in the deepest corner of the highest cupboard shelf....


Lizard eggs!!! I kid you not. Problem is, la Lizards have been born and are no doubt making sweet sweet love somewhere else among our shelves or walls.
