The Sassy Lawyer & Pinoy Cook on food, family and home.
I wasn’t expecting it. I upgraded to a full-frame dSLR and got a second Canon EOS 5D Mark II for free. Yep, it’s the Canon EOS 5D Mark II. The one in the photo above is the unit I got for free and it even came with a 24-105mm lens. The problem is that unlike other dSLRs, this Canon EOS 5D Mark II’s lens cannot be changed.
Remove it, and…
Gotcha. 
It’s a 4GB flash drive! Cute, eh?
I took the photos above with a real Canon EOS 5D Mark II and my old 50mm lens. 
Print it!

Casa is Spanish for house. CASA is also an acronym for Connie, Antonio, Sam and Alex. We are all surnamed Veneracion. We all love to take photos -- of anything that catches our fancy. It's a family obsession.
This is a journal of how we live, eat, learn, play and have fun. Work? Work is part of playing and having fun. Seriously.
In 2003, a time when I hadn't heard of the term "blog", I started a recipe website at cooking.houseonahill.net using a now defunct content management system that ran on ASP. Ok, never mind the geek talk, I'm sure you're not interested in that. The contents easily multiplied and, in 2004, I moved the food site to pinoycook.net. Always unhappy with the fact that the dot com versions of houseonahill and pinoycook weren't … (click here to read all »)

Enjoy your new baby, Connie
Thank you, Thess hehehe
Connie! Akala ko cake! Pero ok yung thumb drive mo.
Sell yours. This other version (its the lens that has the flash drive) is going for $60. So far.

Ay mas cute yan! Easier to hold the drive.
I knew it wasn’t a real camera. At first look you’d see how the whole thing looks like one solid piece of plastic.
Inggit ako sa bagong dSLR!
Di ka man lang nabola kahit konti? hahaha
Are you letting go of any EF-S lenses? Hehehe.
No LOL because we still have the 350D (now with Speedy) and the 40D (now with Sam) at home.
That’s so cool! Naisahan ako dun, ah.
O, cute, di ba? Bloggable hahaha
haha! kaya pala yung unang tingin ko sa first pic parang may mali.
nice one, Ms Connie.
I hate you! super na denggoy mo ako! haha.
alam mo naman na lahat ng sabihin mo paniniwalan ko eh! sabi ko saan tindahan kaya yan? balak ko pa naman mag email sa yo. haha
HAHAHAHAHA Baket totoo naman sinabi ko ah! Tama lang na MANIWALA KA hahahaha
Same as Marvin, was about to comment and ask kung anong store ka nakakuha ng ganyang deal. Was ready to shift from Nikon to Canon… nice giveaway!
Nice nga pero di ko pa nagagamit. From Sam to Alex, at first sight, the reaction was the same. Hinihingi hehehe Ayoko nga!
