Cousin

I got a surprise visit from a cousin of mine who passed by the house a couple of days ago. He is here in the country for a vacation. It was a nice surprise to see him again after so many years. More than a decade has passed since we personally saw each other. I remember he used to play golf as a hobby sport with his office mates at one of the golf clubs here in the city.

He was quite in a hurry during that visit and spent just less than an hour here at home. Time was not enough for us to keep on chatting and talking about life since we last saw each other. Since he was in a hurry, he left behind a bag that has some clothes plus two golf balls that look similar just like the logo golf balls at GolfBox.com that I found last week. I gave it to my dad today so he will just be the one to give it to my cousin. I really hope to see him again.

I remember he used to offer to bring me to try playing golf way back then but after trying to swing a golf club, I told myself this sport is not for me but only for my cousin.

Work in a Restaurant

The idea of being employed once again had crossed my mind and it was a surprise that the idea of doing work in a restaurant crossed my mind. I have been a corporate worker ever since so if this comes true, it would entirely be a different work experience. When my friend’s sister offered me an applebees application form, I was quite surprised then yet now thinking about it, why not try submitting one.

It would be interesting to find myself working in a restaurant. I love food and I love to eat and dine at restaurants. I did consider working for a popular American restaurant that opened its first branch here in our city almost a year ago. Dining there often has given us a chance to befriend most of the staff and at one point I got interested in joining their team. I am just not sure if my age will still qualify though. That may be something that I would have a difficulty in since they are hiring younger people into their team. Yet if given the chance still, it would be fun to work in a restaurant.

Baking Materials

After attending a free baking class yesterday courtesy of a friend chef, I told my husband that I will start investing in baking materials and an oven. It’s more fun to do online shopping for baking materials, spatula, measuring cups & spoons, strainers, etc. My nephew was asking if we need something like those sieves or sifter which are meant to separate wanted elements from unwanted materials using a woven screen such as a mesh or net. I said we a sifter used for baking purposes like for sifting flour, sugar, cocoa powder and other dry ingredients.

I will still need to save for a good oven. I have to ask around from people I know who do bake if they could recommend a particular brand and what to look for in an oven. For the meantime, I will have to start attending more baking classes and workshops to learn more recipes. I am sure the little guy in the house will be excited to help me in baking at home. He will proudly say for sure that he will bake like a Junior MasterChef!
