it takes all kinds

kumusta naman daw yun? magpaka victim ba? ewan ko lang kung anong satisfaction ang nakukuha sa mga ganyang drama.

I remember reading a forwarded email that talks about the different colors needed to complete a box of crayons. "It takes all kinds" was the gist. And I have to say I see that more now.

There are times that you can't really tell the color until you try it on paper. How sad that sometimes, you have a concept in your mind, you think you like a crayon...then you write with it and you see the true color...you realize it doesn't quite suit your taste after all.

Just like a box of crayons, you like some colors more than others--and some not at all. People bring colors to your life--some nicer, brighter, more vibrant than others. I'm just thankful that the lovely colors in my life far outnumber the dull ones.

Sigh...it takes all kinds.

I have decided to celebrate John's birthday for the whole week. Each day, I will prepare at least 1 of his favorite dishes. My initial attempt at celebrating his birthday kasi ended up leaving a bad taste in our mouth. Instead na maging memorable ang last birthday celebration nya dito sa KS, medyo nasira due to some unfortunate circumstances.

SO, we'll try to make up for that by splurging on some very palatable treats:) Here's the appetizer I prepared today: tomato, basil, and fresh mozzarella drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette served atop toasted french baguette slices.
