Cherry Tomato

A special way to appreciate tomato.
Many of us do not like to take tomato, I was one of you, it really took me a long time, I never liked tomato, not until recent years... because I want to teach Gabriel how to appreciate tomato, this mission has yet to accomplish though.... I will never give up, keep on trying and searching ways to learn to appreciate the special taste God has created tomato to be.

During last Christmas, Ng's family held a gathering in Jin Kiat's newly renovated house, and we had lots of food, one that impressed me was this one, sour plum staffed in cherry tomato, or cherry tomato staffed with sour plum, whatever, but it really make it easier to swallow those cherry tomatoes, I have to declare, I like tomatoes now, I don't have problem of eating them. But this combination really makes it easier to consume it if you do not like tomato taste that much. If you have the problem of taking tomato, try this recipe.

Tips on cutting labels

1. Have your labels printed out
















2. Using blade to 'cut' marking at both sides



















It will be like this after the vertical cuts, it is not cutting through, left the border uncut.
















3. then do the same to the horizontal cuts, put 'cut' mark at both sides.
















5. Then the last step, remove the border, no hassle.







Hope the info and description somehow helps.

KRG Missionary Fund Raising - Cards and Bookmarks

Last Sunday was the first meet, together with Ashley the cards making lover, Joe Khong ID designer, Kit Khong graphic designer, Phoebe, Colin and Angela, Hui Theng and friends. Finally we have our first session which have been talking to Ashley since last year, because both of us love crafting. But by looking on the gadget she has got, wow, pro-card maker, who am I? I am just an amateur.

I was sorry that couldn't help much but taking photos, I was too busy running around that day, meeting at Dream Hub, some 'Alpha Team blogging' thingy discussion over another corner... so sorry to Ashley which really stressed her up in my absence.

For the first few hours, they have to cut out bookmarks in desired size, print out Bible verses that encourage, that bring hopes and love, have them cut. Then proceed on designs and patterns. Phoebe, Joe and Kit the siblings were doing good job on this, undeniably Ashley has done the great job on that as well as quality check.

Once design is out, Colin and Angela the couple will start the mass production, hope they enjoying the process being repeatedly stamping and pasting.

Good job for all of you.


Love,

Step Out Boldly

When you walk, your steps will not be hampered;
when you run, you will not stumble.
Proverbs 4:12

The Lord never builds a bridge of faith except under the feet of the faith-filled traveler. If He builds the bridge a rod ahead, it would not be a bridge of faith. That which is of sight is not of faith.

There is a self-opening gate which is sometimes used in country roads. It stands fast and firm across the road as a traveler approaches it. If he stops before he gets to it, it will not open. But if he will drive right at it, his wagon wheels press the springs below the roadway, and the gate swings back to let him through. He must push right on at the closed gate, or it will continue to be closed.

This illustrates the way to pass every barrier on the road of duty. Whether it is a river, a gate, or a mountain, all the child of Jesus has to do is to go for it. If it is a river, it will dry up when you put your feet in its waters. If it is a gate, it will fly open when you are near enough to it, and are still pushing on. If it is a mountain, it will be lifted up and cast into a sea when you come squarely up, without flinching, to where you thought it was.
Is there a great barrier across your path of duty just now? Just go for it, in the name of the Lord, and it won't be there. --Henry Clay Trumbull

We sit and weep in vain. The voice of the Almighty said, "Up and onward forevermore." Let us move on and step out boldly, though it be into the night, and we can scarcely see the way. The path will open, as we progress, like the trail through the forest, or the Alpine pass, which discloses but a few rods of its length from any single point of view. Press on! If necessary, we will find even the pillar of cloud and fire to mark our journey through the wilderness. There are guides and wayside inns along the road. We will find food, clothes and friends at every stage of the journey, and as Rutherford so quaintly says: "However matters go, the worst will be a tired traveler and a joyful and sweet welcome home."

I'm going by the upper road, for that still holds the sun, I'm climbing through night's pastures where the starry rivers run:

If you should think to seek me in my old dark abode, You'll find this writing on the door, "He's on the Upper Road." --Selected

Jane's note

Oh, how sweet is the Lord, receiving this mail forwarded by an old friend, this is helpful to me. The voice of the Almighty said, "Up and onward forevermore." Off I will onwards go, march into the promised land after a journey in wilderness.

Sooner or later

What Almost Every Woman Knows Sooner Or Later


Husbands are things that wives have to get used to putting up with, and with whom they breakfast with and sup with. They interfere with the discipline of nurseries, and forget anniversaries. And when they have been particularly remiss, they think they can cure everything with a great big kiss. And when you tell them about something awful they have done they just look unbearably patient and smile a superior smile, and think, Oh she'll get over it after a while.

And they always drink cocktails faster than they can assimilate them, and if you look in their direction they act as if they were martyrs and you were trying to sacrifice, or immolate them. And when it's a question of walking five miles to play golf they are very energetic but if it's doing anything useful around the house they are very lethargic.


And then they tell you that women are unreasonable and don't know anything about logic. And they never want to get up or go to bed at the same time as you do. And when you perform some simple common or garden rite like putting cold cream on your face or applying a touch of lipstick they seem to think that you are up to some kind of black magic like a priestess of Voodoo.

And they are brave and calm and cool and collected about the ailments of the person they have promised to honor and cherish. But the minute they get a sniffle or a stomachache of their own,
why you'd think they were about to perish. And when you are alone with them they ignore all the minor courtesies and as for airs and graces, they utterly lack them. But when there are a lot of people around they hand you so many chairs and ashtrays and sandwiches and butter you with such bowings and scrapings that you want to smack them.


Husbands are indeed an irritating form of life. And yet through some quirk of Providence most of them are really very deeply ensconced in the affection of their wife.

Ogden Nash







Jane's Note

A very detailed explanation of a husband.

Don't ever think that 'her husband' is better than mine, women ... they are all the same when they are at home. :-Þ
But the last sentence do encourage wives, they deeply ensconced in their wives. Cheer up!

我如何看伤害

从msn里读到朋友的留言：

因为喜欢，才有在乎。
因为在乎，才有伤害。
因为伤害，才有怨恨。
因为怨恨，才有谩骂。
因为谩骂，才有伤害。

爱， 这一课， 始终是最难，最复杂。

女人可以为了爱，放弃她们的梦想，她们的坚持，不顾一切。甚至男人无需给她们任何的承诺，她们会心甘情愿的付出。


把 爱 看成一种艺术，有时候你会明白为什么，有时候你不懂。。。 享受它带来的奇妙，它带来的惊喜。

爱， 没有说对或错，只有认真。

别让怨恨 丑陋了女人的爱情。


当初女人选择去爱，因为知道是值得，既然是值得就别在乎结果。
我知道放下是一件不容易的事，我清楚， 也了解，

但别让恨 丑陋了女人的爱。


我如何看伤害？ 爱可以使女人更美丽， 伤害亦然。 爱 让女人从外面看起来漂亮，耀眼光芒； 伤害却能让女人从里面散发出一种特别温婉优雅的气质。 看，伤害未必不是一件好事！

别让伤害 丑陋了女人的心。


爱情 好比一朵玫瑰花，开了。。。谢了。。。春去春来，来也挡不住，去也留不了， 所以要学会珍惜有的那一刻。

Complication

Complication in feelings
You will never walked out of lies
because feeling is deceitful;

Complication in thoughts
You will never found the answer
because you are lost;

Complication in living
You will never saw the truth
because you are blinded;

Complication in decision making
You will never had the courage
because you have fear;

Complication never comes with joy and peace

Complication never comes with blessings

Complication never made love working,

but love is always an unexpected complication

Complication

What shall I do?

Bible is the love letters from God, a book of love, book of law, book of guidance, book of an abundance life, book of wisdom. A book that could help me set a standard in my life, a book that could guide me along the living path.

A book of love, God's promises and teaching. A book of law, God's protection and mercy. What shall I do? Shall I put His word into my daily practice or shall I use His word to judge others' wrong doing?

Shall I set a standard for others, or shall I just set for my own? Shall I condemn or shall I tolerate? Shall I compare or shall I help? Shall I see the plank in my own eye before I see the speck of sawdust in my brother's eye ( Matthew 7:3)?

What shall I do?

~ 爱情的最高境界~

~ 爱情的最高境界~

有一天，女人问男人: “你说，爱的最高境界是什么？”
男人想了说：“是生与死。你想啊，一个人可以为另个人去死，这还不是爱的最高境界吗？”

女人点了点头，又摇了摇头。。。 “那你说是什么？”男人问， 女人笑说：“是习惯，当你习惯了一个人生活中的习惯， 你就真的爱上他了”。

爱情是一个人对另一个人习惯的认同，爱到最高境界就是认同了他的习惯，
一个女人习惯了一个男人的鼾声， 从不适应到习惯，再到没有他的鼾声就睡不着觉，这就是爱；
一个男人习惯了一个女人的任性， 撒娇，甚至无理取闹，无事生非，一个人会为去迁就另一个人，甚至为对方去改变自己，这就是爱。

如果你始终不能适应另一个人的所有习惯，那说明了你并不爱他，或者说你还未到最高境界， 当你已经习惯你喜欢那个人的所有习惯，例如他衣服的烟草味，他干净的衬衣， 他半夜起身看足球的习惯。。。那么请你不要再问：“爱是什么这样？” 这个愚蠢的问题了。


有人说：“不是爱他，而是爱有他的日子。”

爱，

有时候就是这么简单， 朴素， 它像一杯在我们身边的白开水伸手可及，
喝了，让我们觉得凉爽舒服。

习惯是爱的最终归属，亦是爱的最高境界！

Jane's note:

无论如何，有一小段我不太认同。。。 就是：当一个男人习惯了一个女人的任性， 撒娇，甚至无理取闹，无事生非，一个人会为去迁就另一个人，甚至为对方去改变自己，这不是爱， 而是宠坏。我不太认同这样爱的方式，会使一个人陷入凡是以自我中心而论，这样太不像话了！

爱的最高境界应该是〈包容〉吧！像圣经所说的：

爱是很久忍耐，又有恩慈；爱是不嫉妒；
爱是不自夸，不张狂，
不做害羞的事，不求自己的益处，
不轻易发怒，不计算人的恶，
不喜欢不义，只喜欢真理；
凡是包容，凡是相信，凡是盼望，

凡是忍耐。爱是永不止息；
