I need to bake…or I will go crazy.
My hands are itching to bake. Since I started working, I only had a chance to bake twice and I made the same thing. My chocolate cake. Right now I feel like baking. I’m in the mood for it. The thing is I don’t have much ingredients to experiment with in the kitchen. My supplies have dwindled and I need to go get some but I can’t leave my two younger siblings since everyone left and I was assigned to look after them. I seriously miss the feel of dough on my palms. I love kneading them and making them into something. Its both relaxing and fun. I want to make another cake too. I’m thinking another chocolate cake but adding my leftover maraschino cherries and syrup as a variation because I am a bit tired of making just chocolate cake. I also want to make a chiffon cake and maybe make a bit of custard to sandwich in between so my siblings will have “baon” as well. Its been quite long as well since I last made pizza. I don’t have mozzarella. I’m desperate. *cries*
I seriously need to keep 3k on my next payday so I can go splurge on my ingredients. I’m going to buy 10 kilos of flour and sugar immediately, a few bottles of vegetable oil and olive oil, a chunk of mozzarella, two 5 pound bags of powdered sugar, 5 bars of unsalted butter (I need more but its expensive already), a few cans and cartons of milk (evaporated, pasteurized and condensed), some whipping cream, a new batch of yeast, a couple of berry preserves (yes fresh ones aren’t readily available so I have to make use of canned strawberries, blueberries and other rare fruits I can find), baking cups, vanilla, baking soda and at least another 10 inch round cake pan.
I haven’t included yet a Kitchenaid to my priority list (although I want to…badly) since its quite heavy on the pocket. Heh, who knows I might win one somewhere or someone might feel like giving me one. Haha. Seriously if I get gifted with one, I’d love that someone forever. I’m known to give out cakes and other baked stuff randomly so they might receive one every now and then from me. I hope Kitchenaid hears my plea. Lol. Hmmmm, now that made me think which I want to get first. A larger oven (since I’m only using a small one so I can’t make large batches) or the Kitchenaid. I just know I want both. Anyone want to sponsor? Haha.

I just found something that Leslie would love.
Brazil vacation packages! Haha, you see Leslie is my best friend (I think I mentioned it already in my previous posts) and she has this thing for Brazilians. I just found it funny when I found the site because Leslie has been wanting to go to Brazil so bad to meet HOT Brazilians. Looking at the rates for their packages I think Leslie can afford the first 3 ones after a few months of working in TT. However we still don’t have vacation leaves yet by then so we can’t go before Christmas. Maybe next summer.

Happy because I’m thinking happy thoughts.
I’ve just been working for a few weeks (some say its not even work yet since it is still classified as training) but I feel like I am in need of some luxury vacations. I’ve been used to just staying at home and finding ways to earn online for the past year so I think I was shocked by the stress of undergoing the application and training. Blogging for a year has enabled me to have free reign on my time but now that I started working, I don’t have much say on it. I need to follow the shifts assigned to me and it is getting to me. I miss being able to do something I want when I want it, like bake a cake or bread on a whim.
Oh well, I just know I’m happy. Thinking happy thoughts make me feel so happy and it makes everything around me go with it. I know I’ll be able to balance my baking and work. I just need a few orders to get the ball rolling. ![]()

Clueless…
What is progesterone? I’ve been seeing information about progesterone on many sites but I really don’t understand it. I think it sounds familiar but my brain isn’t working properly these days. Haha. I should ask Leslie. She’s the nurse. Maybe she knows something about that. I still haven’t gone back to the hospital to get my second urinalysis done. I’m too tired to do so. Its been more than a week since my scheduled re-take. I hope the doctor wouldn’t see anything wrong again when I go back this coming weekend.

No one can step over you unless you allow them to.
Silence is never an answer. If someone pushes you down, they wouldn’t stop unless you stand up for yourself and show them that you wouldn’t allow it. If you keep thinking that you can’t do anything to change something, then you never can; because what you think, you are.
If you think you can change the world and you actually start it by doing a step at a time, no matter how long it might seem to take, you will be able to change the world because you believed you can and you did something about it.
Faith without action is just as bad as relying on simple action. You can’t live an unbalanced life. Practice what you preach, and preach what you practice. We are all able but not all of us succeed because we let worries cloud our minds. Focus on what you want alone. Don’t give any space for things you do not want. If you think of what you want all the time and you empty your thoughts of anything negative, life becomes brighter and happier.
If your clear with what you want in life, its easier to find the path that leads to what makes you happy.
