From My Sister's Chopping Board

I support my sister in any way I can. So when she told me she was going to have a hands on food garnishing, I shared a few ideas of my own. You see, my sister and I share the same passion about food. Although she's more inclined to cooking and me to baking, there are recipes that we enjoy making, often adding our personal touch to it.

Here are pics from her chopping board, after her food garnishing hands on. She deliberately went to visit me after just to show me what she did.



Here are cute creatures she made that I took liberty to name, this one is Luke the Alien

Pete the Chicken
(My niece wanted to crush this one in her fist out of gigil.hehehe)

Saturday Morning filled with bliss

hmmm....Although my back hurts a bit from curling up on the sofa, my Saturday morning is filled with bliss. I've always loved the rainy season, not for its rain but for the chilly mornings. I get to enjoy a hot cup of aromatic coffee and other things I won't enjoy in the city.

Today, the aroma of coffee has filled my office (yes, I've already set up an office at the master's bedroom; still thinking of putting a bed in here) and I can hear birds chirping outside. It's still chilly....Oh, and I have instrumental music playing...

christmas decors

I'm trying out how my digicam will fare in low lighting condition and direct light exposure. Although I'm not contented with the results, this will do for now.

Xenias

Got carrried away with flowers so here are more flower macros. These are summer xenias but since we have a tropical climate all year round, they grow and bloom during any month.



Bulbs in Bloom

My bulbs are in bloom and they gave me an opportunity to try out my digicam's macro settings. I think I was able to capture the details well yet, I needed to sharpen my pics so I used Paint.Net for that.

Musical Addict

Enchanted(starring Mcsteamy of Grey's Anatomy) is showing on Star Movies and despite the amount of work load I have right now, I can't help watch for a few minutes. I could say I'm a musical addict and sometimes I just laugh at how corny I may seem to others. Don't really care, I've always loved musicals-all the colors, dancing and singing. Way back in college, I used to dress up and go gala's of musicals showing in Cebu. I've had the chance to watch a few-Man of La Mancha, Le Voice, St. Francis... All thanks to my aunt-who like me was greatly influenced by my lolo to love myths, legends and fairytales.

Enough said.hehehe.natutuwa lng talga ako at natatawa. a breather from my work lang.hehehe

Cram

It's four in the morning and I (again) am cramming to beat a deadline. Ugh! This set is just for 20 keyword articles yet its been seven days and I'm not even half way there yet. I'm really bothered with my hubby's probs. If he is drinking to get over the fear or anxiety, I'm sleeping mine off. It's a good thing I got two new things this week. I finally have a planner for 2009 and I got a watch with interchangeable straps and cricular band or something. I do not usually go for cheap stuff (hehehe, when it comes to watches lang), but it looked sosyal and it came in a fancy box. It also has a black strap which I can use when I just wear t-shirt. (usually the case nowadays since I have loads of vintage tees). enough said.need to work again.ugh!
