I’m a Star Wars fan and here’s my Easter “story” of the year, using some of the cute and delicious stuff at home.

Food
One of the Filipino dishes that I “outsourced” for my housewarming was pancit palabok (rice noodles with toppings and sauce).

I have moved in to a new flat which is nearer to my work place and covers a more economical lease agreement. Hence, one of the things that kept me busy as I returned from my vacation was the packing (and unpacking, ugh) of my stuff. I could have done it before I went on holidays to the Philippines, but I just did not want to stress myself that time. Anyway, moving out and in was a breeze. Thanks to my employer who recommended the movers who were very reliable when it comes to shifting stuff. If you are based in Abu Dhabi and need the same service, let me know.

Whether you naturally fancy Hello Kitty or not, just like in my case wherein I’m a natural Snoopy, it’s close to impossible not to have been enchanted by the thought of owning Hello Kitty stickers, stationeries, cups, and other cute (yes, that’s the operative word) stuff at least at some point in a girl’s life. My random inventory tells me that I have a Hello Kitty trash bin (in the room), clutch bag, shirt and sweater. Lately, I’m scouting toppers like those in the above photo because I want to bake Hello Kitty cupcakes for someone’s birthday who likes this character a lot, so I can virtually send it to her while I consume it here (*insert facepalm*). Seriously, whenever I drop by in the Sanrio stores here in the UAE, Kayni is one of my blog pals that first zooms in my head.
Here goes my birthday wishes for her, and I wish for myself, too: that we remain childlike at heart, that our being childlike helps us in sustaining a good health, that we may find more time this year to catch up on reading and movie watching, and may we invest more on experiences instead of material stuff, travel that is.
This is my entry to Kayni’s birthday blog party.
(More than pleased that I was able to capture the cocktail in this look, i.e. before the fruits emerged after few minutes it was served.)
If you are a regular to this blog, you probably can tell that majority of my photo subjects are food-oriented. I think that this topic has particularly sustained my interest in blogging. While I am no expert in taking food photos, I am happy whenever my snapshots succeed in making any reader mouthwatered and hungry (*grins*). At times, my own posts make me crazy-hungry. Unarmed with technical know-how, I only had one rule whenever I capture food photos whatever camera I do use: to capture it the way I want to remember it. Until I’ve joined in the food photography workshop conducted by Jay Alonzo last weekend.
