OF CHURCHES AND DESSERTS

My weekend was indeed a fruitful one. Infact, it had a lot to do with cathedrals! One I might say is food for the soul and another one I call food for the Gods! (Literally speaking). I had time to make these delectable, mouthwatering gelatin, cathedral windows style! And it was great! Everyone loved it. I am adding this to my becoming long list of creations.

I usually spend my weekends at home cooking or preparing something for my family. Sadly, I didnt think of documenting them. But now, I must say, its time I show off! It's actually a start for what am planing to do. Which I hope would materialize!

I am also planning to turn this hobby into an income generating project. And since the holiday season is just around the corner, I figured these cathedral windows thing is just about a perfect start!!! I am really getting excited. Next thing you might see in this blog might be pricing!! Don't hesitate to ask me because am really realy into it! I just need a capital to start with and I'm off to a busy holiday season preparing holiday treats!!! Wish me luck!!

Speaking of Cathedrals, I was also happy to spend Sunday with God, who has been so generous with His blessing to me and my family. We went to the St Joseph Parish Church, and it reminded me much of what I had been busy about the night before, cathedral windows!

Not much of a comparison though! But really, both have something in common. One to fill you spiritually, and the other, to fill you physically!

A fruitful Sunday, indeed!

Expect more from my creations in the next blogs!!!

THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!!!

unfair deal

I don't know how much longer I can stand this place!
There are people who get away with their anomalous acts.
I mean, they can do whatever they want with government property, get found out, and yet, they get away with it!

Sounds like I'm sour graping, I know but damn! I know, I am innocent with their charges. I know, I didn't break any rules. We had a very transparent activity, and this is what I get!

And yet, here comes these people, who sell government property with out undergoing the necessary procdures, and keep the money and got away with it!

I don't know, leave it be to their consciences! I don't care anymore. All I wanna do now is leave this rotten office! It really sucks!!

Bryan's Saturday afternoon at SM!!

Bryan had a funfilled afternoon last Saturday, Sept. 6, 2006.

After debating whether to tag him along for my business appointment,I finally decided to bring him and take him a walk after my meeting. It was a short and informal anyway so I decided, I take him along to break the montony of his life being only at home all week.

I decided to let him have a stroll at SM.

He was reluctant to walk at first so I had to carry him until he saw the great building of SM.

Thrilled as we approached the mall, he decided to walk towards it.

He was happy to see plenty of people walking by, to and fro. I took him to see the animals at Baguio Pet Habitat, where he was so elated to see labradors, the multi colored fishes in the aquariums and birds in cages.

After that, I took him for that paid ride at Quantum. He was so happy to drive the big puppy and the car.

He wouldn't want to leave so we spent most of the afternoon there. We had to convince him that we had to head home because it was getting dark. After lots of talking and convincing, he gave in. He was so tired after all the running and walking and playing, this is what he looked like when we got home...Exhausted but content!

Hehehe! Iloveyou Bryan! I promise to take you for another ride next time!

I'm mighty proud of you!!!

take and receive

Take and receive, O Lord, my liberty,

Take all my will, my life, my memory,

All things I own, And all I have, are Thine,

Thine is the gift to me, I all resign.

Do thou the rest, and govern all and sway,

Do what Thy will, command,

And I obey,

Only Thy grace,

Thy love on me bestow,

This make me rich,

All else wil I forego

TODDLER CRAZE

These videos were taken almost a year ago(don't mind the audio)just as my son Bryan turned one!

Funny how time flies! Next month, he'll be turning two! No longer a baby!!

He's a toddler. He'll be a pre schooler before we know it!!!

Though I miss his tinyness, I'm proud of what he's become now!

Very vocal and opinionated and he's not even two yet!!

Wait til he reaches pre-school age! I bet we're in for a debate about everything!!

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day.

I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning.

I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God.

You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.

Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you.

I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm.

Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.

Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.

Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil.

And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing,

and receive the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me,

let me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a quiet place to pray.

It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits.

I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others.

Keep me strong that I may help the weak.

Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.

I pray for those who are lost and can't find their way.

I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood.

I pray for those who don't know You intimately.

I pray for those who don't believe.

But I thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and God changes things.

I pray for all my sisters and brothers, for each and every family member in their households.

I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God.

Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.

I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly..

This is my prayer.

In Jesus' Name, Amen.
