Pink Flowering Weed

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have never been discovered.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

I suppose they are just weeds scattering at the public cemetery of Cabanglasan, Bukidnon but looking at them closely they do give off pretty blooms that make the resting place more peaceful.

A flower can not blossom without sunshine, and man can not live without love

~ Max Muller~

I saw these vibrant colored mums sold by one of the flower vendors outside the church yesterday. It was my first to see them alive and fresh. I wanted to take photos of these pretties, so I bought two stalks at P20.00 each along with red roses. After taking some snaps hubby and I brought these flowers to our little angel at the Divine Shepherd Memorial.

Eat-All-You-Can at Agua Seafood Restuarant

Last year, Hubby and I + our BFF Nice wanted to eat lobster for the first time, but weren't able to because something always came up everytime we schedule our food trip. Until three weeks ago Hubby and I with Nice and Jefer finally were able to visit Agua Seafood Restuarant at Lim Ket Kai Complex, Cagayan de Oro City. Our purpose was to try-out the much wished lobster, because somebody told us that their lobster dish is exceptional unfortunately they are not available. sad :( We should have called first before going to restuarant.

Anyway, since we're already there and it was Friday, might as well try their Eat-All-You Can buffet dinner happening every Friday.

These were the picks we had on our plates for the first round...

Hubby's plate

Nice's plate

and mine

The second + third rounds were bountiful as well.

As much as I want to enumerate the dishes they have unfortunately I wasn't able to take photos of each dishes.

Overall at P350.00 per person, we did had a deliciously great dinner.

Next time, when available we'll definitely try their lobster.

The Road to Success

"The road to success is not straight.

There is a curve called Failure,

a loop called Confusion,

speed bumps called Friends,

red lights called Enemies,

caution lights called Family.

You will have flat tires called Jobs,

but if you have a spare called Determination,

an engine called Perseverance,

a driver called Will Power,

you will make it to a place called Success."

Life is full of surprises, there are those so called "hard times" that will makes us feel down and wounded. But after those, Life will hand us something amazing that makes us happy and glad that we're alive.

Happy Wednesday!

Another Cosmos Flower

I've seen a lot of cosmos flowers but mostly are orange and yellow. It's my first time to see cosmos with combination of light yellow and pinkish stripes. Saw them at hubby's aunt's front yard in Bukidnon and they really are pretty.
