Pesteng Pesto

"Pesteng pesto ni Pau, pesteng pesto ni Pau, pesteng pesto ni Pau..." That's what she used to say (as if it's some famous tongue twister like "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper") everytime I bring some of my own little version of the 'spaghetti al pesto' to the office. Yeap, I can cook pesto sauce from scratch! ;)

The photo above shows what I actually had for lunch. Not everyone can appreciate the herby and pungent taste of this pasta, but Anne and I love it! We love it so much that I had to learn how to cook it, which was really not a problem for me since I also love cooking and exploring new recipes.

You know the saying: "If you do what you love to do, you'll never have to work a single day in your life"? This often makes me think that maybe I should pursue a career in the culinary arts. Maybe someday I will.

Out to Sea

"As I sat on the beach watching a beautiful sunset unfold before my eyes, I wondered how life would be in the days to come. I closed my eyes and began to imagine. Immediately, I got this panicky feeling inside of me. No vision came upon me. Yet my chest felt like a field with a hundred racing horses and my stomach like a net filled with a thousand fluttering butterflies.

The warm sea breeze brought me back to reality. I took a long deep breath of relief and opened my eyes again. The magnificent view completely dissolved whatever worries that I had. There’s nothing to worry about for now. Today, I am happy. Tomorrow, we'll see..."
