:WW - Graduation Month!

More balloons here just like in my other blog entry. This is the graduation stage of my son Josh with very refreshing summer color design. Now it's the first day of April and graduation ceremonies are almost finished except for some who scheduled their rites at the end of this week. For the graduates of 2009 may the knowledge gained from school and good attitude taught by our teachers be used also in our own home and in the society around us.

:Food Friday : Pancit Malabon

This is Pancit Malabon but not bought from Malabon but cooked from our very own sister in our church, Sister Cresing. Her grandson and my godson Marrion celebrated his first birthday and this is their blowout in our church on the Sunday following the child's birthday. She's like a pro cook when it comes to cooking almost any lind of recipe, everyday or occasion food.

You'll really love her cooked food when you'll have the chance to taste it! She even made a living out of it when she at one time sells breakfast meals. It was a hit just like this special pancit malabon with a sauce that will make you forget the day lol! It made us really full on the belly!

Happy Food Friday to all, enjoy your weekend!

:Today's Flowers #31

This is another color of my entry in my other blog 'Moments of my Life' where I posted the red variety of this flower, this photo was taken at our backyard while the others were from my cousin's garden where he has more bountiful blooms of this kind. This flower has a thorny body but not as hard as that of roses thorns. What's different in these kinds are their big long leaves complementing petite blooms, makes a lot of contrast, isn't it?

Yen's Questions of the Week #38

Join us at YQOTW.

1. Are you living in a fantasy world all your own? I don't have time for fantasy world, actually sometimes when I'm watching fiction movies.

2. You’re sitting on a small rock with your 5,6,7,8 years old child in your lap, watching the blue sea together, what would you talk about?

We'll talk about all the beautiful things that God made and the wonderful love God has for us.

3. If you have all the time in the world, what would you change about your life? I'll have more time with my kids, I want to see all little changes in their lives from being a baby to a toddler to little boy/girl up to the time that they've grown enough. The things that we cannot go back to if the time passed already. If they're old enough they will spend less time with me so now I want to enjoy their childhood.

4. What is the best thing that ever happened to you this past week? I had a nice time with my kids, they were on semestral break so we didn't rushed during our breakfast. Breakfast in our house are usually the happiest meal because we're together.

5. I seldom go out without eyeglasses in my eyes.
6. Is there something you will never do? Oh yeah, i'll never do drugs

7. Naughty or nice…which have you been this year? Nice most of the time, sometimes naughty but secretly :-)

8. How self-conscious are you? 5 points out of 10

9. Do you think photos of you capture your essence? No I don't look good in pictures but I feel good most of the times, I'm always happy and vibrant but in my pictures I sometimes look haggard because of my eyes.

10. When I get angry, I never said a thing contrary to my outgoing personality who always talk and tell stories. I have a temper so when I get mad I prefer to keep silent or else I might do something that I will regret! I always pray to God to balance my temper at all times and the best solution for me is to keep silent, pray and rest for a while.

: Yen's Questions of the Week #37

1.What does whispering make you think of? Confidential things, sweet nothings, gossips
2 What kinds of current women’s clothing styles do you dislike the most? Very low waist jeans that exposes your underwear and wearing them in workplace
3. What is your greatest extravagance? My 3 kids :-)
4. Do you have a good luck charm? What is it? Not really a good luck charm but a key chain with my favorite bible verse on it, It’s there on my office bag, lucky for me!
5. Fill in the blank: “Without ___ I am nothing.” Without Jesus in my life, I am nothing
6. How do you react when you find out that your closest friend dated your ex? I would feel awkward... there’s plenty of men out there surely my friend would find others…. But on other thoughts I think it would be ok as long as I don’t see them together hahaha! Honest – it’s ok because I’m happy with my life now and other people especially my closest friend have the right to be happy also!
7. Do your heart and your mind ever disagree? Most of the times especially at my work, sometimes I’m forced to do things my heart don’t approve but my mind tells me it’s ok. Prayer is the key to make them agree.
8. In what areas of your life are you uncompromisable? My spiritual life
9. Have you ever gossiped about other people in order to add excitement to your
own life only for it to back-fire on you ? Nope, I hate gossips I only like chikkas.
10. I am in the phase of my life when I want to start something new and better where I can pursue the dreams of my heart and not the dreams of my mind. At 40 I want to do the things that I love doing and not just for the money! Life begins at 40 you know!
