Food Blog


Two posts ago I told you that I like to cook. And then my post before this is about a dinner that I prepared at home. Need I say more?

Lately, I’ve been checking out different food blogs, many are that of professional chefies and others are amateur cooks like myself. This gave me an inspiration. Since we cook a lot at home, why not start my own food blog? So, I thought that I should document my, or rather our – my hubby and I’s - own culinary adventures at home.

A friend of mine blogged about brain plasticity (or neuroplasticity -the lifelong ability of the brain to reorganize neural pathways based on new experiences) and that one of the ways to keep your mind rejuvinated or sharp is to take up a new hobby or interest. (Note: people who don't learn new things make their brain rigid). So this is my way of stimulating my own brain. By blogging about the food that I cook, I will have to challenge myself to be more creative while continuing to learn each time about something that I truly enjoy doing.

So, if you have time, do drop by my food blog at http://spice-o-life.blogspot.com/ . Comments except those that are cruel and are uncalled-for are welcome. Oh, you know what I mean.

Hope to see you there and I bid you…good eats! :o)

A Recap of 2007

Year 2007 is soon to be officially over in a couple of days. As I bid adieu to this year, I know that 2007 will definitely leave an indelible mark in my spirit. This year I have battled and fought, overcome and conquered the many obstacles that life brought my way. It all began in October 2006 when my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, an invasive ductal carcinoma stage 4 which at that time had already metastasized to her bones, lymph nodes and skin. But even this horrible news did little, if anything, to put me down. I knew there would be an uphill battle ahead of me, but I prepared myself. I put on God's full armor and held on to God's promises in His word as tight as I could. So as the year 2007 came rolling in, I was ready. My heart was expectant of the Lord's miracles to take place in my life and in my family. I even went as far as boldly declaring 2007, being a year ending with the perfect number 7, as the year of PERFECTION - a year when everything in my life w...

Shotgun Prayers

Lately I’ve been finding myself having quality time with God when I drive. It is embarrassing to admit, but it is when I am driving that I get my quiet, alone time with Him. Ironically, I am able to focus on the Lord very well despite the craziness of Miami's traffic. Within the four walls of my car I've poured out my heart and soul to the Lord. The car is privy to all these wonderful, sometimes desperate times with Him. If only my car can talk, I am sure that she would be able to tell you about my most fervent prayers, my secret longings and deepest sighs. But there are also those times that I find myself just throwing out one-line-prayers for someone, or for something. Like when an ambulance passes me by, I’d quickly say a prayer for the person in the rescue vehicle. Or, anytime when I see something in the street that moves me, I throw those one-liners out to God. Usually, these prayers are more like, “Bless that person Lord!” , “Help him/her live that she may know yo...

MOTHERS

To all mothers who happen to read this blog, I just want to greet you a very happy mother's day. You are the silent heroes whose sacrifices are not acknowledged / recognized as often as they should be. Mothers, without you, we will never be the same. And for that, I want to let you know, thank God for mothers like you. May the Lord's anointing, grace, wisdom and strength abound in you all the days of your lives. Happy Mother's Day! P.S. Special shouts-out to my friends Holly Logan, Vicky Aguirre, Sylvia Meza, Adri Brigham and mother-to-be Rachel Justiniano on this day. You are such good examples to me. God bless you guys.
