Sometimes you just gotta laugh

So today has been quite the day let me tell ya. My day started out rough in that the 2 trouble makers in my class named Genesis (boy) and Rois (girl) both decided that today would be a great day to reek havoc on me. Now keep in mind they are not accomplices on any missions to cause me stress...they totally work alone which makes it even more difficult to handle. Needless to say, both of them ended up in the office today (second day in a row and it's only Tuesday). Of course every time they return to class from the office they are sweet little angels, but I just don't understand why it has to come to that point.

Anyways, after school I totally got the urge to bake, mostly because it's a great stress reliever and I really just love to cook and bake. Since we just got paid yesterday, me and my 3 housemates walked to the grocery store, Surangel's, which is only a couple blocks up the road from our apartment. When we were done shopping rainy season graced us with it's presence...not just a sprinkle but a down pour. Seeing as how we were all in our school uniforms and they needed to be washed anyways...and we just wanted to play in the rain...we did as the Palauan's do and just went on our way in the pouring down rain. Good times really.

On the way back to our apartment (in the rain) I lost my left flip flop in the very deep river of water that was racing down the side of the road. Meanwhile, my housemate Haslel's right flip flop broke...so together we could make a pair! That's not all....haha....my other housemate Katie slipped and fell flat on her bum on the slippery sidewalk. Luckily nothing happened to my other housemate Ale. Hilarious trip is what that was! What a sight we must have been!

Anyways, we finally made it home and I am proud to report that I am happily baking 2 chocolate chip pumpkin cheesecakes (I know right...interesting combo but sounds yummy to me). Since I had extra pumkin from the cheesecake, we decided to make pumpkin pie as well, but of course the recipe is enough for 2 pies. So right now I am baking 4 pies!! Great therapy baking is....I digress...Today has been full of up's and down's but God sure does now how to make me laugh when I'm down. I'm so thankful for that.

I sure do hope this finds all my loved ones doing well and in good spirits. Keep your heads up and know that you are not alone and God is always there to make you laugh when you need it the most. Much love and blessings till next time. :-D

Baking sounds fun! So does the rain walk. If I tried to bake I would probably burn the place down. They have an old scohol gas and match oven. I didn't even know those existed anymore! Haha. I miss you!
