Too Busy Packing

I'm having a hard time to blog hop these days for this reason:



YUP, we're moving out and I'm busy packing. Sorting things gave me a pain in the neck, too. But whenever I got the chance, I'll try my best to post an entry here and visit blogs or drop ec's. So, just hear from me from time to time...

Chloe Sings Love Story

This video was recorded during Chloe's Halloween fun day held last October 27, 2009 at their school. I posted 2 videos here because her teacher requested that she sing it again as the microphone didn't sound good on the first take. However, on the second video, the crowd was already noisy but her voice was loud and clear. And some of the kids joined Chloe on the stage, too, as they danced to the tune of Taylor Swift's Love Story.


2nd take: "..It's a Love Stooory, baby, just say yes..."

1st take: Tinker Bell Chloe just love to sing ;-)

Yummy Sunday: Seafoods



My second entry for Yummy Sunday is all about Seafood. Seafood is my favorite dish most especially the crab and the shrimp. I could eat a lot if these foods were served at parties or even at home :D

Most often, after we went to church on a Sunday, we took our lunch to one of Cagayan de Oro's native food resto and ordered these foods (see below: crab and shrimps were not available). In all fairness, it tasted good and we went home fully sated :D


Sizzling Squid (with veggies)

Kinilaw

Tinolang Isda (Fish soup)

Join Perfectly Blended and enjoy posting your favorite food every Sunday.

Chain Letters

I haven't got the time to check on my emails lately but this morning, I took the time to open and read then deleted the spam mails and other unnecessary messages. What I meant by "unnecessary" messages are the chain letters. It would have been okay if someone asked me to pray for him/her and that's all. However, these messages ended like this: please take time to read this because the son of the President (of a particular country) who deleted these message died. Or, you will be in bad luck if you don't forward this message to others.

When I received this kind of messages and sensed that it was indeed a chain letter, I would delete it right away. I don't even bother to read. I can't blame my other friends who sent this to me because maybe they believed it and were afraid, too. But whoever made this kind of chain letter, how dare he/she. Nobody has the right to say your life will end just because you don't read the letter at all. I hope they will stop doing this because Life is not a joke!...

Halloween Week

It's already November and how time flies so fast! And I can't believe that Christmas is even on the way. But before I talk about that, let me share to you our activities last week. Tuesday of last week, my daughter Chloe had their Halloween fun day at school and I have (need!) to be there. She donned again her Tinker Bell Costume because she wanted to be a fairy. My little fairy had fun and so far, had the best time of her life. She was requested by her teacher to sing Taylor Swift's Love Story (her teacher just asked her to practice the 2 days before the program!) which, I was glad, she memorized it right away! ;-)

Saturday of last week, Chloe joined again McDonald's Halloween fun day together with her cousin. This time, she donned her vampire costume (she wore it last year) and glad that my husband helped me with the make-up! hehehe... Well, he knew the vampire-look better than I! Chloe's cousin wore a pumpkin monster costume. Both kids enjoyed the fun and received lots of prizes ;-)

(Tinker Chloe; and with her cousin Kirk)


Sunday, November 1, my mom, 2 brothers and their wives and kid and my family visited my dad's grave at the cemetery. We stayed there for more than 2 hours because we arrived very late in the afternoon already. My family always make it a point to gather there on November 1st. I hope you had a good week, too! (more pics will be posted soon at Chloe's blog)
