More Yarn! Fiesta La Boheme Starbust

2011-11-03T15:32:00.000-04:00

Fiesta La Boheme Starbust in Rhubarb with Metallic

When my friend called me yesterday and asked if I wanted to tag along with her to a yarn store. You probably guessed right. Of cause I wanted to go to the yarn shop. We spend almost 2 hours in the shop searching for suitable charcoal color wool to make scarves for my friend's sisters. We both making fun of the colors my friend's sisters choose. My friend ended up not buying any wool because there weren't many choices on the charcoal color. All of these beautiful yarns, Why does it have to be charcoal? We were making fun of my friend's sisters. I, on the other hand, ended up with a beautiful skein of yarn called "Fiesta La Boheme Starbust". It cost me $35 (actually $20 because I had $15 gift certificate). It has all sorts of fiber contents in it - Rayon, bushed kid mohair, wool nylon and metallic. I had a plan in my head of what to knit this beauty with. The secret will reveal in the near future. For now I just want to share my excitement about this yarn. I just checked Amazon.com out and they do have a shop that carries this yarn at about $30.00 but without the metallic.

My AdSense Revenue Increases with SBI - Update

2011-09-26T11:10:00.000-04:00

My Adsense Revenue increases with SBI

I started blogging 4 years ago, part time. It took me 4 years to earn $100 from AdSense. I started a website with SBI in April, 2011 and now I earn about $15 - $30 a month from AdSense Ads! This is very exciting news for me. I am so glad that I decided to give SBI a try. Some day I'll come back and tell you that I earn $100 a day! That's will be my goal. Just keep watching me!

It's true that content is the king. It's hard to find content to write about. But...if you're already know something like for example, you're a dog groomer. You can just write about dog grooming with your eye close. This is what make it so greats. SBI will guide you step by step on how to write thing that you're already know and make it appeals to your reader.

SBI is not for people who want a quick fix. It's not for a lazy person. It's for people who have passions with great motivations. You have to study, research your keywords, build a blue print for your site and many more. All of these will happen with the help of SBI and SBIers, of cause.
So, if you're looking for a way to increase in AdSense Revenue, you should considering SBI a try.

My website statistic update.
This update is up to today Sep 25. There are still 5 more days to go into the report. I think by the end of this month, I'll probably have around 8,800 visitors.

Summary of my http://to-knit-knitting-stitches.com statistic since the beginning.

I'm just so happy and want to tell everyone about it. I'm now making even to the monthly cost that I pay for SBI, wait.. actually I make $7 extra because I made a commission from selling one SBI. You don't even have to own SBI to be SBI affiliate. Go check it out at SBI affiliate sign-up page Should you give SBI a try? Think about it carefully.

In conclusion, I definitely see the differences in increasing in my AdSense Revenue since I started monetized my SBI website with AdSense Ads.

Big Chevron Scarf - Easy Knitting Pattern

2011-09-09T16:52:00.000-04:00

Free Knitting Pattern - Big Chevron Scarf in Autumn Colors

This is a very easy scarf to knit and I think you'll love it. You can find this pattern at my website at;
http://www.to-knit-knitting-stitches.com/big-chevron-scarf.html

A long while ago, I found some discount bulky yarn and I didn't quite know what to do with it. I love the color and the softness of it. Finally I got to use it to knit a baby vest (it even soft enough for baby!). I got a lot more yarn left over to make this big scarf/wrap.

I found a "chevron and feather" stitch pattern I really like for this scarf. It was real easy to knit because the pattern has only 2 repeating rows. The scarf turned out nicely I think. It's not too plain and too lacy. The zigzag edges give it a nice and different look.

So if you're looking for an easy scarf pattern to knit, this is a perfect one to try. If you prefer smaller scarf, you can buy non bulky yarn instead of the bulky one.

Thanks for stopping by.

I've Found the Best Rice Cooker Ever!

2011-09-02T18:50:00.000-04:00

A rice cooker and a slower cooker in one? and the best part of it is that it made out of CLAY. If you'd ever tasted anything that cooked in a clay pot, you probably noticed that food tasted and smelled better. I grew up eating rice cooked in clay pots all the time and I had no idea that clay pot would make rice taste better that regular pot. I guess I just took it for granted. I've been looking for claypot for some time, butI've never found anyone that I really liked. A few month ago, I came across this website which sell claypot that can be used for rice cooker as well as slow cooker. I'm so excited and can't wait to get my clay rice cooker. In the mean time I thought I would share it here with you.

Click on banners to visit VitalClay, read reviews, get testimonials and get yummy recipes.
I'll be back to write an update when I get to use my claypot.

Virginia Earthquake At 5.9 on Richter Scale

2011-08-29T23:46:00.001-04:00

Last Wednesday (August 24, 2011), US east coast got hit with one of the strongest Earthquake in the century. I have to record this down for myself since I live in Maryland and I could experienced this earthquake for the first time in my life. I was working at my desk and suddenly the dog started to bark and bark. I heard tumbling noises from upstairs and I thought something had gone wrong with the air conditioning unit which located up on the attic, or a few robbers had got into the house and try to steal stuffs. Then the whole house started to shake. I grabbed my keys and purse and ran out the door. Then my husband called from work to see if I was ok, then I realized it was an earthquake. It took awhile for me to figure it out! We were lucky that nothing was damage. I was amazed nothing fell of the shelf or the wall since it was pretty strong quake at 5.9 on Richter scale. After the earthquake, we had Irene, the Hurricane. We were blessed again with only short of power for 12 hrs. while millions of people are still living with out power. I hope those people will get help soon so they can get back to their normal life again. I know this will not be the same for everyone, but we can only hope for the best. I prayer for all of those who are effected by Hurricane Irene.

Get Good Traffic On Site Built With SBI

2011-06-27T08:55:00.001-04:00

Traffic Stat for the 3 month periods after launching my knitting website using Site Build It

I've never had a site with a good traffic in such a short time. I thought I'd share this with you.

One good thing besides many good thing about SBI is that I can get my traffic stat and statistic at my finger tip. Then it divided into different categories such as entry page, exit page, referral and so forth.

You can see that in April my traffic wasn't great because I just started to write my first page. Throughout the month of April, I spent my time creating pages. By the end of April I had about 20 pages.

In May the traffic started to pick up and by the end of the month, I had over 600 visitors.

Then came June, I have over 2700 visitors. I'm sure by the end of the month, It will reach 3000.

I'm so excited, I even posted it on the SBI facebook to share with other.

Regarding Alexa's Ranking, I am very pleased with it.

I'm not sure what the rank was when I got started. It was around 12,000,000 rank.

Here is my raking for http://to-knit-knitting-stitches.com at present day.

In the mean time I'm focusing on continuing to add many good materials and content rich website. It'll be interesting to see what the future will bring.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sbi has a special offer of buy 1 site and get another one for $100. Offer ends July 4.

You can now submit knitting patterns to my site.

2011-06-07T16:15:00.081-04:00

Submit knitting pattern and more.

It's been almost 3 months since launching my new knitting website http://to-knit-knitting-stitches.com. I'm very pleased with my Alexa's ranking. I'm now at 644,000 which is very good for a new site. I have to thank Site Build It for giving me the right tools to make this happens!

The knitting site was build out of my curiosity of how SBI can help me turn my love of knitting into a home business. My first goal is to create a unique and informative website for my visitors and not to make ton of money. I'm working very hard building knitting contents and thanks to my husband who help with editing.

I'm also pleased to announce that my visitors can now contribute contents, submit knitting patterns, knitting tips and create their own knitting page right from my site. Visitors who wish to add link to their site with the submission can also benefit from gaining traffic rank since my Alexia ranking is very good. I'd love to see a lot of submission coming.

In the future, I'd like to add a section where knitters can list their knitting products for sell without having to pay for it. If someone wants to buy their products, they can then contact them directly.

If you knit and have something to say or just want to see how the site looks, please stop by at my knitting site. Your comments and questions are always welcome.

Update: July 12, 2011 - my Alexia raking is now in the 399,990, I'm so happy and excited!

Learn to knit with video on Youtube - knitting instruction for beginners

2011-04-22T23:46:00.000-04:00

Learn to knit with my video instruction on YouTube.

As I mentioned on previous post that I am working on my new website http://www.to-knit-knitting-stitches.com. I have posted several how to knit instruction videos on YouTube. I had never done how to video before, so hopefully people will like them.

It has been a struggle between trying to make how to knit video and keeping my twins out of my screen. A lot of time the twins would show up in the middle of the film with little fingers popping in there or toys being tossed in to the scene.

So, I found it impossible to make knitting video during the time when the twins are around. And I thought I could.

My knitting instructions website is coming along quite well. I've taken many photos of my knitting methods such as casting on, decrease knitting, increase knitting, knit and purl.

I'm trying my best to pass on my love for knitting to others who haven't yet had a chance to learn knitting.

So, if you have a minute, stop by at the site and give me some feedback.
Thanks, see you next time.

National Harbor DC Maryland

2011-04-11T00:17:00.003-04:00


The twins enjoy making craft at National Children Museum's Boot at the Festival

National Harbor DC/Maryland Cheery Blossom Festival April 9-10, 2011.

Have you ever been to National Harbor Lately? Today is my first time visiting the Harbor to see the Cheery Blousom Festival. I thought National Harbor is either in DC or Virginia, but actually it locate on Prince George county, Maryland. That's the county I live in! Silly me. Sometimes, you just didn't pay attention what is right under your nose!

I went with my husband and my twin daughters. My first impression of the National Harbor was the bike part along the Potomac river and a sandy beach area behind the performance stage. There were some folks flying kites down there and it looked like it close for the public use today due to the festival.

Traditional Japanese Dance, National Harbor, Maryland

Love the little kids dancing in Japanese costumes. There were well prep for the dace and quite cute! Other shows include sword fight, drum show, model daces and others that we didn't see.

There were plenty of parking space for visitors and plenty of shop to shop. There a new Thai restaurant just open called "Thai Pavilion". They set up the stand out side for the festival and we tried Pad Thai and Chicken Satay with peanut sauce. Both dishes were yummy! Would go again definitely.

Modern Japanese Dance, National Harbor, DC/MD

The National Harbor Shopping Center somewhat reminds me of Bethesta, Maryland with all fancy shops and high-rises.

We stopped by The Children museum for awhile and let the kids explored stuff. They're going to build a huge children museum pretty soon.

Traditional Japanese Dance During National Harbor's Cheery blossom Festival

So far, I don't know a whole lot a bout the place just yet. We didn't get to do much of shopping in the shops except the jam and jelly shop. What's call again? oh...I remember....Stonewall..I think. They've got great condiments. Great for entertaining stuff. If you go to National Harbor, you've got to go there to try their samplers of jam, dips, grill sauce, dressing, cookies, chocolate and hand lotion.

Thanks for visiting, see you next time after Thai New Years.

Knitting ebook

2011-03-31T15:29:00.002-04:00

Knitting ebook "Become a Knitting Superstar!" with easy step-by-step knitting video instructions

Are you looking for a knitting book or knitting ebook?
I'm working on my new website using SBI. As I mentioned in previous post that I finally came up with "knitting instructions" as my site concept. I am searching for good knitting ebooks to post on my future site to share with my visitors. One of the knitting ebooks I find most interesting is an ebook written by Liat Gat, a young and hip knitter. She presents her lessons in Video versions with step-by-step instruction from cast on, basic stitches till cast off. Everything you need to know about knitting is there for you to learn. You can knit along with her and pause video when you need to.

For me as a knitter I think having a video lesson in front of me is much easier than to read instructions. I'm planning on putting video clips on my knitting website as well and I'm so excited about it.

So if you ever need a knitting ebook or know someone who wants one, you should visit Liat's website and read about her knitting ebook. She has a video to show you how the ebook works. There are many new knitters who bought Liat's ebooks and found it very fun and easy to follow.

Headband Knitting pattern

2011-03-26T22:56:00.000-04:00

Knit fun and easy headband for kids and adults. I pick a simple cable pattern with pebble in the center of each cable. When I finished knitting this headband I gave to my daughter and she didn't really wear it as much. So I asked her if I could turn this headband into a hat. My daughter love it!

My Headband Knitting pattern has been moved to the Hubpages.

Atlantic City Hotels On the Boardwalk

2011-03-26T13:56:00.000-04:00

Over the past 20 years, my husband and I enjoy taking little 2-3 days trips to Atlantic City, NJ. We like to stay at hotels located right on the boardwalk because it's much more convenient to walk to and from other casino hotels nearby.

Here are some great Atlantic City Hotels On the Boardwalk that are on top of our list.

Caesar's Palace Hotel & Casino - We like to stay here because we're club members and usually get comp room and bonus money to play slot. This is the most convenient hotel to us because we like to walk around at the Pier - shopping and eating. All we have to do is just walk out of the 2nd floor of the casino hotel and cross the bridge over to the Pier without going outside. Caesar has the best modern slot games in town.

Show Boat Atlantic City - Show boat is very Festive place. You can think of celebrating Mardi Gras in New Orleans when you think of Show Boat because Mardi Gras is their theme. It's colorful and fun. Every time you win the slot jackpot, you'll get bead necklaces. They've got the best buffet here with the best fried chicken and yummy desserts. I think we won more money here than any other places.

Trump's Plaza Atlantic City - We haven't stayed at Trump for quite some time. There are lots of changes. We usually don't want to pay over $100/night if we can get free comp room from other boardwalk hotels. This is one of my first stay at Atlantic City. We ate at the buffet and it was very good but not as good as Show Boat though.

Tropicana Atlantic City - This is a very nice hotel too. Plenty of fun slots and table games to play. There are a lot of restaurant to eat, a good BBQ place on the first floor and Hooter. Love the indoor market place which you can buy so many thing from cooking supplies, clothing, bags, perfumes and ice-cream.

Bally's Atlantic City - Bally has very distinctive Victorian Decors all over the hotels. The only problem is that most of their rooms aren't very big. They also has a good, friendly buffet restaurant and a great outdoor swimming pool.

Ever since we had the twins, we usually stay at Caesar's Palace because their rooms are much bigger. I love to stroll the kids to the Pier and watch Dancing water or just window shopping. The third floor has a great Sandy Resting area where the kids can play while you can sit and enjoy the beach view and people on the boardwalk.

One tip though, if you want to get great bonus and room offers, you need to get a free member card. Every time you play slots or table games you use your bonus card so that you can earn rewards such as free room, free buffet, free show, free play money and so forth.

I'm always surprised how often these hotel casinos send us free stuff because we're not very big gamblers.

Hope you have a chance to try these Atlantic City Hotels on the Boardwalk out. Let me know how you enjoy it!

People are out to Buy Potassium Iodine

2011-03-17T11:41:00.001-04:00

I can't imagine the radiation will cross over the Pacific ocean from Japan to the US but everything is possible isn't it. They all said that in Japan that they won't be any danger from radiation. And now..look what happens! I feel like the whole world is falling apart and we're heading toward the end of the world. One thing after another. People are getting panicky here in the West and running out to look for potassium Iodine pills just to have it handy in case of radioactive exposure. Where can you buy Potassium Iodine? Many drugstores report shortage of Potassium iodine. Last time I heard the price biding at e-bay was like $2500. Last time I check at Amazon I see that they still carries Potassium Iodine pill.

Potassium Iodine supposes to help prevent Thyroid from getting cancer when a person contact with high dose of radiation. I found this website very helpful regarding radioactive iodine and its effects on Thyroid gland. http://hawaiihealthguide.com/

I don't think I will go out and buy the pills right now, but I might do that in the future.
Here are some Potassium Iodide available at Amazon.com

I found my site concept for SBI website

2011-03-13T09:05:00.000-04:00

It has been quite difficult for me to select and sort out ideas for my new website's site concept. After a month of brainstorming and keywords analyzing, I came up with "knitting Instructions" as my site concept. Thanks to SBI for providing me with such great tools like brainstorming, master key words analytic tool, niche choose it, and many of video and written study guides. I'm only on my third day of action guide and I feel quite positive about the out come. SBI keeps me on track of reality and not to get distracted with all the get rich quick scams and all the noises out side. Keeping it real, using your passion and work hard like a tortoise are some of the SBI's modules I admire.

Now, I am putting on my architect hat, designing my tire structures for my blueprint. I will stop by SBI forum to check out FAQ and tips to see if I miss out something before I proceed on the next step. Pretty soon I will be working on my website name and domain register.

Restasis Reward Program Help Pay For Out of Pocket Cost

2011-03-10T15:48:00.002-05:00

How would you like to save up to $45 on your 90 days Restasis eye drop prescription? Well if you have really bad dry eyes like me, of cause. I just tested my reward card yesterday and it works! My prescription for Restasis cost $30 out of pocket but because of Restasis reward program I didn't have to pay anything.

Restasis is trying to get people to stick with the product so that they can earn big buck from Insurance company. I don't think many people can afford Restasis eye drop without insurance. My medication bills is climbing up every year now. This year alone, I have to pay for extra dry eyes and dry mouth care. I'm not even going to talk about my infected crown. This will be another post by itself.

After using Restasis for 3 months my eyes are getting better and I don't wake up in the middle of the night feeling irritation in my eyes any more.

So, if you are taking Restasis prescription drug and havn't sign up for Restasis Reward Program yet, you might want to take a look at it. Go to Restasis.com to sign up. It will save you as much as $45 on a 90-days-prescription and it cost you nothing to apply.

You can also Buy Restasis online as well if you preferred.

Food that increases Fertility

2011-03-06T00:16:00.001-05:00

Today I'm researching on Fertility issue and try to gather some idea to develop my website using SBI. I am looking at CDC report of ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) cycles performed in the US. which involve IVF and IUI success rate. Then somehow I came across a topic regarding foods that suppose to help increase male and female fertility. Here are some of the foods that claimed to help boost fertility in both men and women.

How to Cook White Rice in a Rice Cooker

2011-02-28T11:30:00.000-05:00

I love white rice. How can I not love rice when I'm Thai and I grew up in a rice farm. My grandfather had many acre of rice field and he that what he did. Grew rice and rice only. Thais eat rice just about every meal with others condiment dishes such as curry, vegetable dish and meat dish. We often don't just eat one meal dish when we eat Thai food. I found it so easy an convenience to have a rice cooker at home so that I can just put my rice in and forget about it. I bought my rice cooker twice in the past 20 years. The brand I have is Tiger Brand and it works great. I think it holds up to 10 cups of cooked rice. I normally use jasmine rice which is a type of white rice. Its aroma is so amazing. The hot steam and water won't leak in my Tiger Rice Cooker like other cheap electric rice cookers because the lid is designed to keep bubble in place. You can then take it apart and clean it later. How do I cook my white jasmine rice? Very easy--just add the rice in the pot and add water, then push the button. Usually it takes about 1:1.5 of rice and water ratio. For example, if I were to cook one cup of rice, I would add 1.5 cups of water. This is the way I normally make my white rice - in my electric rice cooker. You can also cook brown rice in a rice cooker too just have to use little more water. It would be like 1:2 ratio for brown rice and water.

I also cook my rice on stove in a sauce pan or sometimes cast iron. I even cook my rice in microwave occasionally. Anyway you choose to cook your rice is up to you. I thought it would be fun to share this with you since I like my rice cooker so much.

Most Fertile to Get Pregnant - 3 Costly Mistakes That May Prevent You From Conceiving!
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jackie_Grange]Jackie Grange

When are you most fertile to get pregnant? What should you avoid to increase your chances of conceiving? A woman has most fertile days of the month during her cycle. The only problem is that these fertile days are few. Did you know that a woman's the egg is around for only 12 to 24 hours? Some women have an irregular cycle. Pregnancy is not an easy task in this case as it is difficult to identify fertile days to conceive. It is therefore crucial to avoid anything that hinders your chances of getting pregnant.

Ovulation is the best indicator of fertility. The type of mucus your body produces provides clues to your fertility. On days when you're not fertile, the mucus from your cervix is either light or sticky. However, during the few days leading up to ovulation, when you're most fertile, you'll have more discharge and it will be clear and slippery with the consistency of raw egg white. You are most fertile to get pregnant on the last day you notice cervical mucus of this kind.

First, you need to watch your diet. There are some foods that may prevent you from conceiving when you are most fertile to get pregnant. For instance, acidic foods such as citrus fruits and most grains. These foods make a woman's' cervical mucus acidic. Acidic cervical mucus may become hostile to sperm, which require an alkaline environment to survive.

Second, how often do you try baby making? A lot has been said about avoiding sex until the time that you are most fertile to get pregnant. While this will ensure that there will be more sperm waiting, it may work against you. The sperm may be tired and sluggish hence unable to swim towards the egg for successful conception. You need to have a fresh and healthy supply of sperm. Therefore, your partner needs to ejaculate at least every 3 days.

Third, what lubricants are you using? Did you know that many off-the counter lubricants damage sperm and must be avoided when you are most fertile to get pregnant. This includes the widely used KY jelly. The best option is to try and increase your natural lubrication. You can do this by having good foreplay in your baby making activities. This will allow both the man and woman to produce natural lubrication that is best for keeping sperm alive.

These are just but a few of the common mistakes that women make when they are most fertile to get pregnant.
