"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made..." Psalm 139.14

leaving it up to Him.

a series of recent events in my life have freaked me out a little. some of it is due to my negligence - but, i guess there's no use in worrying about such things...

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?" [Matthew 6:25-27]

so, i will not worry about tomorrow (literally). i will leave the results up to Him and celebrate my newfound confidence with frozen yogurt. :]

breakfast...just around the corner.

Read Article →
i LOVE good food and, i've recently discovered breakfast to be very enjoyable and gratifying. it has been a rather expensive exploration.

growing up, breakfast was boring. milk and pop-tarts. that was it. but, now - a countless assortment of pancakes and omelettes make breakfast interesting. so, in honor of breakfast (the most important meal of one's day) - this entry is a tribute to different cafes in orange county that offer wonderful AM food. here are a few breakfast-serving locations on my "must eat" list.

i'll start with plum's cafe & catering. the dungeness crab omelet with fresh asparagus & dill hollandaise sounds especially mouthwatering. how can anything with crab be bad? it has to be amazing. i have great expectations for this dish. the blueberry brioche french toast at old vine cafe looks the most appetizing right now. i eat blueberries with everything. and, at rooster cafe - the two egg breakfast (three strips of bacon or five pieces of portuguese sausage, red potatoes or brown rice and toast) will probably win because two strips of bacon is not enough. i really really love bacon. :]

i hope you will visit one of these cafes (or, have the desire to do so) upon reading this entry. that is, afterall - the point of all this rubbish. haha.

yellow brick road.

i finally know what i want - what a relief (after all these years). i really hope everything works out. i sort of feel like dorothy on the yellow brick road, only i don't have sparkly red shoes. maybe i can find a pair at the flea market. that'd be neat.

...what of the tin man, cowardly lion and scarecrow? i don't know.

applesauce in a jar.

Read Article →
yes, applesauce in a jar for wedding guests in the land of oregon. wonderful, isn't it? i love this kind of stuff. maybe i'll distribute nicely packaged jars of boysenberry jam (so delicious~) at my wedding...perhaps in a smaller jar though...

but, anyway - oregon is on my great, big list of states to visit. in particular, portland. i found this wonderful site that guides you through everything one can do whilst visiting portland. and, if you're like me - you'll be on the site for at least an hour. so, perhaps i will visit portland, oregon somewhat soon. :]

also on my list are: boston, massachusetts; anchorage, alaska; seattle, washington; providence, rhode island; staten island, new york; and, just all of connecticut.
