Believe it or not, it is a cake. At a glance I thought is some kind of display set. This is a beautiful design artistic cake I ever seen before. I was looking for something to buy for a birthday girl and found this cake from the...

eileenleyva Wish I was the birthday girl because I love coconuts. I would deeply appreciate that. And eat it in a jiffy. But it's not my birthday. Geez.

We recently lost a sister-in-law and her husband has given me a lot of wool that Kerry had stashed away. Kerry was a great knitter but in later years, her eyesight deteriorated so much that she had to give up knitting. I have...

eileenleyva @JudyEv Oh yes! Sorry, I forgot. Your seasons down under are opposite from the others. That's all right, my friend from Australia gave me a lecture on that several years ago. And I wouldn't believe him. Ha ha. I deserve that. Hope you can make plenty for...

I was so tired last night I went to bed at 7:30. I just could not stay up any longer. It is not that I work so hard, though. More like there is never an end to the things I need to work on. It also could have been the quick lap I...

eileenleyva English is a beautiful language. Shakespeare even romanticized the language in verses. I do not know who made the contractions that gave us good-bye but I'm fine with it. It's the o'clock that I feel a bit crazy trying to decipher how that happened till I...

eileenleyva I know the pronunciation is different in German, so I must hear how that is said. My daughter is studying the language and she pronounced it for me. Added that technically, it translates to 'I'll see you again.'

eileenleyva I enjoy bidding someone 'tata' sometimes. Sounds like an impish way of getting rid of someone. But I do that only when I am either naughty or angry. Good-bye is always preferred.

eileenleyva I went outside this morning and watched my pink ribbons from the other side of the street. Very elegant. I commended my humble project. Ha ha. I noticed that in my subdivision, there's a poster of Leni and Kiko for every ten houses. Yehey! My fervent prayer...

eileenleyva That drama is a problem play. A woman in pursuit of a husband slight of hand in bed? Sounds ridiculous. And ends well? But the point being is taken. Yes, both men and women engage in such nonsensical ploys to achieve what they want. These days, it's money....

eileenleyva Mice are cute creatures actually. It's the rats that are scary. Once, I checked on my old house in the valley. A neighbor came and we had a chat in the garage. All of a sudden, a tiny mouse peeked on the door as if checking who has come to disturb his peace....

eileenleyva That has been implemented in my city for more than two decades. Grooming makes the city thus people must wear decent clothes. Men must wear shirt all the time. Slippers or sandals not allowed in government establishments.
