How To Make a Basketball Cake

This post is dedicated to all basketball fans. If you are planning a basketball-themed party, then this cake will perfectly match the celebration.

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear

Do you have any fears?  Let me rephrase the question: what are your fears?  Fear is a product of our insecurities.  Being human places us in situations where we cannot control everything, and ultimately, this makes us anxious about what we face or what is about to happen.

This made me smile...

If you're a housewife, you definitely feel like losing your sanity most of the time.  Our everyday lives are tied up with never-ending chores and responsibilities.  While many husbands and some narrow-minded people think that being a housewife is easy, I want to prove them wrong.  These people say that we don't have to work and that all we need to do is stay at home.  What makes you say that stay-at-home moms don't have to work?  You'll never know how tough it is to be at home.  Why not try doing my responsibilities for at least a day and then tell me how easy it is to be a housewife? 

 

Housewives don't complain about the mountains of laundry or cleaning the house every hour, which seems to make no difference at all.  We are also forced to think of ways to earn money that will help sustain our financial needs, as we know the real state of our budget.  We are willing to sacrifice our wants just to provide for the needs of our husbands and children.  We love what we do and can bear the greater challenge of taking care of our children.  It hurts to hear other people belittle us as "housewives," and it is even more painful when our husbands come home and voice complaints instead of asking how our day went and offering some help. What we need is support, especially from our husbands, family, and friends.  We want to feel appreciated and loved. At times, we want to feel special; we desire to hear encouraging words rather than complaints about what we should or shouldn't do. We need someone to take care of us too. 

Gift Ideas for Valentines Day

Cake Bouquet

As promised, I am now posting the photos of the gift ideas we had in the bakeshop.  Attending to all the customer demands was very tiring indeed, but I am glad to have accommodated all their orders and special requests.

Minion Cake for SJ's Birthday

SJ celebrated his second birthday yesterday.  We didn't have a big celebration. Many people asked me, "anong handa?" (what's the menu).  We have already drained our pockets because of our bake shop's renovation, so I could no longer afford to throw a huge party for him.  We cooked spaghetti and fries for a simple celebration and, of course, designed a cake for him.

I decided on a Minion design since we always say he looks and acts like these minions.  SJ not only makes me smile but also laugh.  His actions truly reflect this, so this cake design suits his personality.  He really loves his cake.  

Currently, I am too busy creating special packages for the Valentine's Day celebration.  I feel a bit tired of multitasking, but I have to do it - we need more income! I hope to post photos of them here in the coming days.
