CREATING MADE EASY SEPTEMBER KIT !!

Hello everyone,  Today I am sharing with you, what I've created for CME Clear Scraps Kit Club for September. 
First Project: This is actually a wall hanging decor. "in my kitchen, we eat dessert first"! It looks better in actual than in photos. I will take another picture as soon as I find/decided where to hang it.
These 2 cupcakes are attached together using a piece of wood glued in the back for hanging.
If you want to see some how to details, check it out over at Clear Scraps Creating Made Easy blog.
 


 


These are quick and easy recipes that I often make for my family. I really know them by heart but I want them compiled together in one album/place.


Thanks for peeking into my simple life.........
until next time!

Photo A Day #2........"Rice wrapper fillings"


Happy weekend everyone! I was inspired last night to make one of my and my familys' favorite dish, vegetables eggrolls.  This is the easiest part of making it, the fillings. With this amount I can more or less make at least 50 medium size egg rolls. The recipe is really easy, not a lot of ingredients but it's tasty and anyone can make it. This is my photo of the day!!! I don't have a macro lens but I like how it came out.


Thanks for peeking into my simple life, and stay tuned for more "photo a day" ................
XOXO

Photo a Day #1............Lucy Wucy!!!

Hello everyone and happy Friday the 13th! are you superstitious? From where I came from, we have so many  of them and "Friday the 13th is unlucky" is one of the many we have. Things such as, To open an umbrella in the house is to bring bad luck ; An itchy palm means money will come your way; When a dog howls, death is near ; To drop a fork means a man will visit ; To drop a spoon means a woman will visit ; To give someone a purse or wallet without money in it will bring that person bad luck; If the bottom of your feet itch, you will make a trip. These are the only few that I know. Whoever thought of these things, but  even with all the modern age complex technologies, somehow some of us remains superstetious in a way. So, are you super cautious for today, it's Friday the 13th.
Anyhooo, just wanted to share this picture of our Lucy Wucy, isn't she lovely :). I thought I will take photo of something/anything that I like or not like, "a photo a day" like I have nothing better to do :) or maybe just because :) ! So to start, I took this photo yesterday afternoon of Lucy. 
Isn't she lovely????

Gone Fishing.......Labor Day Weekend!!!

Labor day weekend getaway. This holiday seems to be the most, mini getaway- celebrated holiday of the summer, the last summer fling of the season!!! so, whatever we do seems more special, it  feels like the last summer of your life :) and must enjoy the best of it,  so, now we are ready for the long cold months to come, I think! :) This year is about doing something new, fishing that is! The idea seem so exciting, even though we have not fished before,  one of my husband friends was kind enough to introduce us to it and lent us his vacation house at Ocean Shores, WA, again. I think he is my favorite friend of his.....:) Anyhow I enjoyed it a lot, it's all worth the waking up so early in the morning for the catch.  God is amazing - the beauty of his creation is breathtaking. To see and witness this beauty is such a blessing and to capture it in pictures to cherish and be in awed everytime I look at it is simply amazing.
I took this first photo at about 6 a.m.. The grass are moist, fog around the area while the sun is  rising, just a beautiful site! awwww.... 


I always thought,  how awesome it must be to live by the ocean!


Here comes the rising sun!!!


Fishing gears!!!


At this point he's thinking, what did I get myself into! LOL! I love the gear - I think he's hot in it!!! 



The challenge begins.....it was quite a walk specially in the early morning.



Gorgeous morning! Just us at the beach!

Getting by with a little help from a friend!!!!  fishing 101, quick tutorial!!!

and he gots it!! first catch of the day!!! Beginners' luck! :)

and the FUN begins....he caught  that big one!


the excitement and joy is priceless!


Love this one! picture perfect!

Walking his way towards me where I sit comportably on a piece of drift wood watching nature and him fishing! By the look on his face, he is done for the day!

And a yummy simple dish!!! Pinangat for dinner! Really it's tastier than the market bought fish! :)



The man cannot live with fish alone he has to have his meat and potatoe-substituted with a more healthier yams! Makes him a happy camper!!!


Gorgeous day at the beach!!!






and of course a picture of me, husband shooting! well, out of hundreds that he took there bound to be something I will like! I always play model when his taking the shots. Can't really share the other photos, it's for his eyes only! ha ha ha!
