I am rather a boring dresser. I don’t take ‘risks’ when choosing my clothes and accessories. The usual shades or colors in my closet are black, white, brown and pink. Although there are days when I am tempted to go out of my comfort zone and try sharper, more colorful shades and even try to accessorize (not to the extent of using body jewelry though). But I always end up going back to my plain outfits. Sigh. I hope my daughter grows up with better fashion sense.

One of the things I am having trouble organizing at home is the slew of cables behind the TV and the study table. Even if I clear up the TV stand and the study table from clutter, both areas still look very messy – a real eye sore.

I remember Ikea sells plastic tube covers that just might solve my problem. The tube hole is pretty narrow and comes in standard size, good thing the cables at home are thin as CAT6 and will definitely fit the tubes.

I’m tagging Roselle and JoyD.

I mentioned in my previous post that the window sill in our bedroom gathered mold and mildew because of the moist that formed day after day. Because it’s winter, we have kept the sliding windows closed all the time for weeks with the blinds drawn therefore I had no idea that it’s doing our window sills no good.

I used my favorite cleaning solution and a brush, which thankfully did the job. This cleaning spray is what I use for our glass tiles and ceramic tiles, too. It is so helpful and I think companies like the Glass Tile store should endorse it.

Anyway, now I learned that I should let the air in the room so that the moist will dry properly.

Thanks Roselle for the tag!

The rules are simple. At the end of the post, the player tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blog and leaves a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

1. Put up a foundation for children.
2. Secure my child’s future.
3. Help my church and its workers.
4. Take as much pleasure trips with my husband.
5. Share the blessings with family.

6. People I want to know more are Em, Mel and Julie.

My daughter is less than two years old but I’m encouraging her to eat right. Although her appetite varies day to day, I take advantage of her good “mood” and feed her as much vegetables and meat.

I know this contributes to her well-being, her health in general and seeing the glow in her convinces me that she’s on the right track. I believe that as a parent, I should create a good foundation for her health for her to bank on when she grows up.

She will go through changes in different phases of her life and she needs to be equipped to face them all. Not unless it’s acne problems, then only Proactiv acne cream can help.

This award is from blogger-mommy Roselle. Thanks!

I have a “not-so” wordless entry here.  More wordless entries here!

My daughter Amelie got invited to a birthday party last Saturday. The celebrant’s mom asked me to bring my camera along and so I started snapping photos as soon as we reached the party.

I like this particular shot because of the little boy who was dead set in breaking the piñata. Each kid was given three chances to hit the piñata but this boy went on and on to the point of dropping his pants while at it. We all had a good laugh watching the kids in this game.

(To protect the privacy of my friend’s guests, I purposely covered their eyes on the photo.)

More weekend snapshots, here!
