It's So early to have Snow!

I can't believed it that we have experience snowing in our place at this very early time. Imagine snowing in October! As far as I can remember, last year's snow starts at the end of November. There are also some places in Germany that experience snowing since last week. This is the photo I took from our window today. Our garden looks sad now. Most of the flowers are fading. I even bought new winter plants yesterday and planted it too. I am happy that I already cut leaves of that pine trees that you see here and covered some of the perennial plants in our garden. It's time to wear warm winter clothes now! take care folks and stay safe all the time!

All friends out there, be careful in driving especially during winter time. I heard since yesterday over the radio that some people died due to car accident because of this weather. Drive slowly but surely!

some snow that you can see in our garden. a view from our window.

Feel free to visit WW site to join and to see more photos. Happy Wordless Wednesday everyday!

Thank God it's Friday!! For all those who don't need to work during the weekend, this is usually what they say!! It's TGIF! and I believed they are happy when Friday comes..but for me it really doesn't matter but of course I am happy too because my husband don't work this weekend!..

How was your day my friends? Hope all went fine! I am quite tired today in spite I really did not do a lot of things. I guess it is normal when sometimes we just feel like that. anyway, I have a lot of things to share and talk in my blogs but sometimes I just don't have enough time. At least I am sharing some ideas, thoughts, opinions and of course my personal experiences sometimes. I am just happy everytime I can do that. This is especially true if I can share some photos of my escapades. I hope you are enjoying it too. If I can't update this blog, just feel free to visit me in my other sites!! I will be very glad to see you there! have a great evening guys!! take care and have a great and blessed weekend!! Tschuss!! Machts gut!!

Exchange Link Infos

I guess this is the time to clear-up this issue. To all blogger and friends especially to those who want to exchange links with me, I really appreciate if we can exchange links with each other because we all know that it is also for our own good.

I just have some clarifications about this matter. I really have a difficulty of managing my blogrolls now. As you know I have a lot of sites and I really don't have all the time to check one by one if you really added my sites to your blogroll. Just last month, I found out that there are some bloggers who added my links. I really appreciate it. Thank you very much for your time and effort. They requested me to add them also. I reciprocated to their request and added them too. I am taking a note now who are really adding me and what sites of mine do you want to add or just added.

What happened as I visited their sites again, all my links in their sites were gone. I know that there are some bloggers who lost their blogroll due to changing of templates. This happens sometimes as what I heard about other bloggers. But then, these bloggers who remove my links did not change their templates. They still have the same templates. I guess this is not fair...It is very unfair. Come one guys, we need to help each other and be mutual. The spirit of reciprocity should be present in the blogosphere. Without it, this blogging world will not be a better place to share our ideas, thoughts, opinions and our experiences too.

So please if you want to exchange links with me, I am really honored to do it. One last thing... I really appreciate it if you add first all my sites or any of my sites that you wish to be included in your blogroll. I would really be glad if you put it under the name of EUROANGEL PLUS SHORT BLOG TITLE MUCH BETTER so that when I visit your blogs and see my sites there, I will immediately add you one once given enough time. But please be patient if I can't add you as soon as possible. as what I have said. I will add you as soon as time permits. If ever I forgot to add you, I appreciate it again if you could remind me. for those who already added me and I forgot to add you, your reminder is really appreciated. Thank you very much..

For those who want to exchange links with me...let me know when your done adding and I will surely add you...but please be patient..
PLS. UNDER THE NAME EUROANGEL...plus BLOG TITLE much better..thanks so much! below are my URL and SHORT BLOG TITLES...HAPPY BLOGGING!!

It's Snow Time Again!!

Yes, it is snow time again! I had been cooking a lot the past days. Just last Thursday I cooked 4 menus. I cooked a yummy Snitzel which is like a breaded lean pork meat, fried fish, broiled pork and fish paksiw a Filipino food. I know I am gaining some weight again this winter. This is especially true because I have always good appetite when it is a cold. Sometimes I think there is no way for me to lose some kilos anymore. I guess I need some fat burners to burn my excess fat. Is Hydroxycut good for me? I believed I have to consult first my physician about this. anyway this photo was taken yesterday in our garden. Visit my other homes for more updates and photos!! I really have to sign-off now guys, it is midnight again!! Sweet dreams!!

Last month, it went down to 565. Yesterday it became 463. Do you have any idea??

My Life and How To Lose Weight!!

Since two years ago, my computer has been my bestfriend. Do you know why?? because I spend most of the time in front of my PC. That is getting worst now since I start blogging. I think I can't live without my computer anymore..Sounds funny huh??But yes, it's true that I stay in front of my pc most of the time. Well, it doesn't mean that I don't have friends. I have some good friends here in Germany, to count maybe are 2 or 3 persons. Unlike in the Philippines, I got hundreds of friends. Sometimes, I can only contact my friends and former classmates online like in Friendster. Life here in Europe is just different compared to Philippines. You even don't know your neighbors here. Honestly speaking, I only knew not even a dozen names of my neighbors here in Germany . Imagine I already live here for more than five years now and I only know maybe around 10 names of my neighbors.

That is why, I am talking and writing all the time in my computer. I am just thankful that we have this technology now or else my life can be very boring. Thanks to the power of internet where we can stay connected with our family, former classmates, and friends anywhere around the world.

And you know what is the effect of too much sitting down in front of my pc??? It is quite shameful being a woman but I have to share it with you. Honestly speaking, compared to last year I am gaining more weight now and my tummy is getting bigger. Very bad effect???What do you think??I even have some exercise equipment inside our room but it is still of no use. Well because I am always stuck in front of my pc, browsing, surfing, writing and updating my blogs all the time.

Sometimes, I am even thinking of taking diet pills just like someone I knew in U.S. as I visited there last time. As I was in U.S., I was amazed by this person because he have lots of Diet Pills Supplements in his office. He said he used them before and it was proven to be effective. Sometimes I am thinking why not give it a try??

I just came across Price Exposed. A website that provides relevant information on choosing diet supplements. According to them, when you choose a certain diet supplement, you should consider the cost, safety and its effectiveness. I believed it is true?? How can you choose a certain product if its not safe for you???What do you think dear readers???Any idea or opinion?? That is the reason why Price Exposed provides the list of the Top 10 and even the Best Diet Pills that a person can take. This site simply reviews the best diet pills without confusing the shoppers. They even provide the benefit of a certain diet pills. If you want to look great and beautiful, Visit their site now and learn more infos!!! have a great weekend ahead!!!

What Happened to Blogger??

I was just trying to upload some photos today in my other blogs but once I am done uploading I can't see any photos in my post??? Any ideas what happened??or does anybody have the same problem!!!

I will try to go to bed early tonight because I have a dentist appointment tomorrow in the morning!!! have a great evening!!

I want Schweinebraten

I got crazy last Saturday..It's almost three months that I haven't eat Schweinebraten, my favourite Germany food. It is called in English Bake Pork. When I make Schweinebraten, I usually use Schweinebauch or Pork belly in English.

I told my husband to buy some meat for me..but he said we got some meat in the freezer..I'm just lazy to dig our freezer..I insisted to him if he won't find one inside the freezer, he need to buy a fresh meat..

I finall eaten what I want..my favourite Schweinebraten!! It disturbs my diet again!!! whatever!! see yah!!

Burschenverein Feast in Hohenfels

Yesterday was the first time I witnessed the German Burschenverein Fest here in Hohenfels. "Bursch" a german word which means in English a boy, lad or a guy.. "Verein" on the other hand means society, group or organization.. To bring it together in my own word "Burschenverein" simply means Boys Society.

They had a parade yesterday as seen in the photos I got here. It was quite a long and fun parade. Perfect timing because they had the parade in the afternoon where the weather was getting better. It was raining during Sunday dawn till the morning here in Hohenfels. It is even getting quite cold especially as we went to the Feast tent duting the night.

Some neighboring places participated in the parade..to name a few are Burschenverein from Grossbissendorf, See, Teublitz, Breitenbrunn, Lengenfeld, Lupburg and a lot more..

You might think that German people are boring, but they are not!! They also love to have party especially feasts and carnivals all the time. They also want to have fun and good time just like me...

We stayed inside the feast tent until 8pm since my beloved husband have to wake up early today for his work. In short we had a great Sunday too here in Germany!!

that's all for now...will take a small break to do a bit household chores!! ..keep reading especially taking a look at my other sites for more updates!!

Sending the best for today to everyone!!

the famous "Lederhosen" (leader pants) of the Germans..worn especially during feast, carnivals, parties and other special occasions

lots of people inside the feast tent!! almost all people had great time yesterday..
never forget to drink the 1 liter beer inside a big mug...also try the tasty bratwurst, a German especialty sausage..

the beautiful "Festdamen", Feast ladies in their beautiful and attractive dresses

the band who played German music parade..
they also wore very colourful and attractive clothes.

another group of Festdamen..i love these dresses they wore yesterday!!

pix taken around 8pm where some people already went home since a lot will still be working today....besides lots got drunk already...time to rest and prepare for next day work..

What Are Spam Blogs?

I hope that you got some ideas about it..Some bloggers like me may not be aware of this..At least now, I already have some more ideas what really blogging is...Thanks to Google for this very good information...I hope I can explain to you next time why I am doing this research.

What Are Spam Blogs?

As with many powerful tools, blogging services can be both used and abused. The ease of creating and updating webpages with Blogger has made it particularly prone to a form of behavior known as link spamming. Blogs engaged in this behavior are called spam blogs, and can be recognized by their irrelevant, repetitive, or nonsensical text, along with a large number of links, usually all pointing to a single site.

Spam blogs cause various problems, beyond simply wasting a few seconds of your time when you happen to come across one. They can clog up search engines, making it difficult to find real content on the subjects that interest you. They may scrape content from other sites on the web, using other people's writing to make it look as though they have useful information of their own. And if an automated system is creating spam posts at an extremely high rate, it can impact the speed and quality of the service for other, legitimate users.

Link Schemes... Important!!

My very dear trusted friend forwarded me this email..well this is just very important esp. to all bloggers!! so please read!!

Link schemes

Your site's ranking in Google search results is partly based on analysis of those sites that link to you. The quantity, quality, and relevance of links count towards your rating. The sites that link to you can provide context about the subject matter of your site, and can indicate its quality and popularity. However, some webmasters engage in link exchange schemes and build partner pages exclusively for the sake of cross-linking, disregarding the quality of the links, the sources, and the long-term impact it will have on their sites. This is in violation of Google's webmaster guidelines and can negatively impact your site's ranking in search results.

Examples of link schemes can include:

· Links intended to manipulate PageRank

· Links to web spammers or bad neighborhoods on the web

· Excessive reciprocal links or excessive link exchanging (”Link to me and I’ll link to you.”)

Buying or selling links that pass PageRank

According to Google, these are some of the reasons why a blog/site can be penalized and have a lower page rank.

Google says that you should have not more than 100 URLs of all
sites including yours in a page. Google takes seriously the cases like
"link farming", buying links, spamming, etc.
