What a gloomy day.. looks like it's going to rain. Saw my brother up on our garage's roof catching some insects. Why?

Like I told you before his son is taking macro shot of insects for his thesis in his photography class in UST. Don't you worry some of the insects are sent back to nature after being photographed.

My sister in law is so happy to see her orchids blooming already. She's got this violet color and she's got the peach one too with a different variety. I am not a fan of flower photography but this one took my attention so I took a snap of it cuz it looks so healthy. Just today my SIL took some of the flowers and put it in her mini-altar.

Last year I was able to take photos of some street entertainers in Sydney (near Circular Quey) providing entertainment when you give them coins. They will just stand there for hours and will only move once you put coins in their cans.

Bawal Magkasakit !!! Lalo na ngayong panahon na laganap parin ang A(H1N1) virus na yan. Isa sa magandang proteksyon laban sa mga sakit eh ang pag-inom ng Vit. C gaya nitong FERN-C. Hindi ito nabibili sa drugstore, sa mga dealer lamang. Masasakitin ang 2 kong pamangkin kaya sila'y umiinom nito at nakakatulong na man sya.

No one is allowed to get sick!! Especially these days when the deadly A(H1N1) virus is still spreading. One of the best ways to fight ailments is by drinking Vit. C like this FERN-C that can't be bought in the drugstore, it is only sold through dealers. My nephew and niece are drinking this and it helps them. Join us at LITRATONG PINOY

Umulan muli nung Martes gaya nung Lunes at eto ang kinalabasan sa aming gate. Ito'y basang basa buti na lang at hindi bumaha pero nung kasagsagan ng ulan may hanggang bukond bukong na tubig baha sa kalye.  Sa inyo bang lugar eh binabaha?

It rained so hard again last Tuesday and here is the outcome, wet gates with still rain waters. We are glad that it didn't flood during the heavy rains. Did it ever flood in your place?

My entry for LITRATONG PINOY- Kandado

Sensya na d ko na translate sa Tagalog ang entry ko. My other Entry at my other blog.

These days we can't help but to take extra precautions on safeguarding our belongings and properties. I clearly remember many years ago how our house was almost ransacked by some burglars. They forced their entry on our house leaving our door knobs wrecked and messy. Fortunately no one is at home at that time.

There's also an instance when one afternoon i think it was in 2006, my instinct somewhat told to go home and not long after while I was in my room, I heard a noise inside the backyard. I peeped in my window and to my shock I saw a guy in an orange shirt jumped over our steel gate going at our back door. I was so scared that time because he was forcing our door by stepping on it real hard. That is the only time I screamed ... " Burglar!! Burglar !! and I am glad that he didn't gain entry or else he might have killed me or whatever..

I saw him run fast and left his left rubber slippers. Unfortunately I didn't see his face. None of my neighbors heard my scream that time and gosh for sure if he got inside the house with me in it, I know no one can save me even if I yell. After that I was shaking and called a neighbor over the phone so she can check on me. This I will not forget and I hope I will not experience this anymore.

To this day, we had installed much higher steel gates and put more extra KANDADO (LOCKS) in the gates hoping it will give extra protection but I guess no matter how many locks we put, burglars will really find a way to gain entry. Hmmmppp... Can we really be safe?

Pssst.. Take a look at my camera.. smile !!Gotcha! More Wordless Entries Here

My niece and I dropped by SM to look for something when she grabbed my hand and led me at the toy section. She really wanted me to buy her these Barbie Dolls and Little Mermaid but i told her it is not the time to buy those things and just told her if she is good she might get it on Christmas. Fortunately she didn't cry and she just enjoyed looking at them. Good thing is that I have my cam and I told her that i'll take pic of her with the toys.

These are the Phil. and our town's flags being paraded during our Town Fiesta last Feb 14, 2009. Our celebration was colorful and fun. MY OTHER ENTRY FLAGS HERE

Where you can find candles being recycled? ONLY HERE i guess in the Phils. My SIL is a Mother Butler at a small chapel here in our place and she collects used candles after the mass. She cooks it again and later on they will use the recycled candles again, good eh? VIEW MY OTHER ENTRY

San ka naman nakakita ng nag rerecycle ng kandila? DITO LANG yan sa Pinas maari, siguro! Ang aking hipag ay isang mother butler sa maliit na chapel dito sa aming barangay at naghihinayang silang itapon ang mga upos ng kandila kaya't ito'y kanyang kinakalap para lutin na muli. Ito nga pala ang entry ko sa LITRATONG PINOY.

at ito ang resulta, bagong kandila para gamitin muli sa simbahan.. oh d ba tipid!

This week's theme at PHOTOHUNTERS is CREAMY.

This is the Buko/Fruit salad that I always make if there is an occasion here You know what?  Pinoys love making  fruit salad as our dessert and I think it is somewhat impossible not to have this on any occasions. It is made out of fruits, condensed milk, all purpose cream and more. Just in case you want to learn how to make this, here is the recipe of my BUKO/FRUIT SALAD .

Hi it's my 1st time to join so I'm pretty excited.

These are yummy fresh Lumpiang Sariwa made by my sister in law one lunch time. I think she made the wrapper as well that I think is very easy to prepare as well.

After hearing the mass this morning, my niece Reign saw this DORA balloon that she wants. I was pulling her hand so that she will to buy bec. it's expensive P60.00. Her mom and i told her that we will buy her jollibee instead but she didn't like the idea.

So she got what she wanted, a Dora balloon that for sure will burst in no time LOL.
