ah! arang arang pa diay ko te.. kay i swear masko grapes na tubuan amo garden.. i tried to plant it eh.. but ciempre wala cya mi survive sa kainit sa leyte

Good for you, Bem!  I think motubo man jud siguro ba if I just put my heart in what I am doing.  hehehe

Bem, lami kaayo kusion si Mocha dear sa baby pa!

Bem, don't be fooled by me.  I have no thumb at all when it comes to planting!  Bisan bamboo tree na tubig lang ang ibutang, mamatay pa sahay ka malimtan ug refill ang water!     But I am learning and trying to get "involved" because my husband love so much gardening and it pleases him that I show interest in his garden!

I agree with you, Charlattan.  I think Macky got the whole copy of the book.

I hope that this doesn't lead to false assumptions though.  We must understand that the survey was merely a measurement of people's perception and not of the actual quality of one's facility in the language.

Good thinking, Paul!

Congratulations to Gian and her family for this remarkable achievement!

I would like to CONGRATULATE too, Madam Lucino for the promotion and for all her achievements.  And most of all, I'd like to congratulate her for having wonderful nieces and nephews who are so proud of her and who are inspired by their aunt's dedication to work and service to the people.  God bless the whole Lucino family of Bohol!

Lagi Cel ba?  Sus karon gakamulo pa ko buhat sa chrysanthemum na gi post ni Aya san sa lain na thread. 

Wow ka nice ani Mari!  Sus kanang fruit easy ra kaayo na.  Easy ra man pod nang uban buhaton kaso lang it would take time to manually craft each and every petal but these pictures surely inspire me!  Thanks, dearie!

Ngek!  Penoy na lang oi!

Tuba or Cabernet Sauvignon?

Thank you, Dong!  Yes, that's our barrio and we celebrated the Blessed Trinity Fiesta yesterday. Our dear friend and member of Tubag Bohol Ate Lee was able to join the festivity when she visited our family on Saturday evening for the pre-fiesta celebration.  It was so heartwarming to read her email about her experience with our family.  I am so thankful to her for finding time to see our family!  God bless, Ate Lee!

Okay Mari.  Busy ang career sa baji kay daghan kaayo sya'g guests iyang family sa side ni Joe including her mother-in-law.

OT:  good night nako, Mari!  See you later!  mwah!

Let me revisit this thread because it seems like we left this half-baked.  Should I revise the guidelines to take into consideration the suggestions here or let's hear more feedbacks unya saka na lang i revise? 

Mari, the chrysanthemum that Aya posted in the other thread is now my work in progress.  Na distract lang ko ron kay nag laag.  I think I can resume doing this on Monday kay daghan distractions kong weekend.  But really, chada kaayo nang imong flower arrangement gi post dre.  Ako na bitaw gi bookmark kay ako pod i linya buhatonon.

Nag text diay Gemma, regards and thank you to all daw!

Oy mora mag puto tan-awon na kiam.

I thought so too, Tita Birdie unya kanang isa na picture, hard-boiled eggs! hehehe

Macks. basin the pages in the copy you have are long enough to accommodate the 220 pages in the book that I saw.  Taas ra pod nang 87 pages for a review.  Please hold on to that kay I am sure naay maka benefit ana.

Ngek!  Matabang, Boyet! hahahahahah mabuang ko, nanglimbawot akong balhibo just thinking about worms!

Mari, gidugangan na pod nimo akong buluhaton na flower arrangement na buhaton nko in sugar gum paste kay pirte ka chada anang imong gi post dire oi!  Beautiful jud kaayo dear!

Macks, I wonder too if that's complete.  The book I quickly browsed in Barnes and Noble, it was more than 220 pages. 

kale

ale, lea, leak, elk, la

I think I've seen this in a documentary too about worms being used as a substitute for burger.  I'd say, ngek and yuck!  I'll just use this worms to fertilize my lettuce, carrots and other vegetables and then I can "indirectly" have a taste of worms!  If tworm burger is the last food on earth, I guess I will just die.

Good night, BOC!  It's time for me to go to bed now.  It's only midnight but have to get up earlier tomorrow to go to church.

To the rest of my friends here who are online:  Aya san, Tita Birdie, Ate Lee, Hazel ug uban pang nagpahipi, until later and you all have a wonderful day!

Hello, my dear Mari!  Pareho ta, na wa sa pasing ani na thread.  Dugay naman diay tawon ni karon pa nko nakita!

nahisalaag na pod ko kay wa man ni nko napanduli na thread.  Belated as this may be, let me wish Mari and Steve CONGRATULATIONS and may you succeed in your business!

Great! Your plans jibe with mine. Mingaw man diay ning mahimong OFW, which is what I am actually feeling now that my family in already in the Philippines. But I'll be going home every three to four months... In three to five years, I intend to make Tagbilaran or Cebu (where there are many Japanese companies for my translation and documentation) my main base.

Kung ikaw mukuha lang kag outlet sa usa ka dako nga mall, OK na imong retirement. Murag wa may crisis sa Bohol. ICM is teeming with shoppers even on regular days, rain or shine... I think if you have tried entrepreneurship overseas, like myself who is running my own small company, you don't have to worry much about settling in the Philippines. You even have the advantage of using your overseas network, technology and experience overseas.

Thanks a lot, Bene san!  Pohon-pohon and in God's perfect time, we will be there na sa Tagbilaran.

I will pray that the lone survivor, though in critical condition now will make it through so he can help the investigators in identifying the wild animals who killed the nine people in that robbery.

Pirte ka busong.  Tia Edna, Alyssamarie aka smiffy and Hapon just left our house.  We had, for dinner:

rice, Barrio Fiesta bagoong uyap, smoked hasa-hasa, chopsuey, friend tofu, tortang isda.

lunch earlier:  leftover spaghetti

snacks:  halo2x and palabok

For Gemma and Joe, who are immeasurably in love with each other, a love that oozes, who have been an inspiration to many for their kindness and generosity, who produced a very wonderful and beautiful child in Kyle, on behalf of my whole family, I wish you both a very happy and more blessed wedding anniversary!  May God always bless and keep you safe!  Thank you very much for your friendship! 

p.s.  Happy birthday too to Joe's beautiful mother. 

Hello Gem!  Enjoy your time with your family!  God bless!  I love you!

hahahahah nakita jud nimo, Cel!  Alangan, hinay man kaayo kon tarungon! 

Wow, pagkalami sa mata kay green ang palibot, Cel!  Good job!

Quote from: Happy on May 18, 2008, 05:03:49 AM
We went for a walk in the nature center today, and I found a kettle



..at least in my eyes

hahahha tama ka Cel, daw kettle bitaw!  grabeh ka observant ba nimo oi!

Kapoy pod na trabaho sa Head Teller oi kay sya gud na i remitan sa mga kwarta at the end of the day.  Sahay, mag spot check lang ko sa money ilang ibutang sa vault.

Bem, I hardly could reach 85 pounds when I was in high school so it wasn't it kay gani sapyot ko!  I think "deformity" sa lawas!   

Ngek!  sapyot ba diay na Bem!  First man gani iyang ubot2x so then imo pod!   

Wala koy experience ana, Bem! hehehehe  I never thought then anybody is worthy of losing my mind by being so jealous!  I always say na if ang  lalaki di ganahan nako, "it's not my loss" hahahaha

Wala bya pod, Bem, kay mga but-an man among guards.  Pero diha mi guard na lain kaayo manotok but of the 3 guards in a day, isa ra man tong di kaayo ko comfortable and it was only for a brief period. If I open the vault,  kadtong trusted guard akong ipa guard.  But, mahadlok ko adtong times na di available ang Head Teller/Cashier so ako tong mag uban to get money sa other branch or sa Central Bank.    Or, sahay naay mga "spoiled" na clients, magpa pick up sila ug deposits kay mahadlok sila mismo mo adto sa bank kay daghan cash. But seldom ra to nko nabuhat kay Operations man jud ko unya work man na sa Head Teller/Cashier. 

Makatok na jud lagi diay ba!  Tiaw, mortally wounded unya gi attempt pa nya ug revive imbis na modagan na sya.  It's just sad.  Taas man diay pod sya ug rap sheet.  He is going to regret what he did for the rest of his life.

Okay ra Bem!  Manglimbawot pod akong balhibo mag check asa na to! hahahahaha

Ngek!  Maayo gani wa ning atubang nang "bombero" Maring!   

I still can't get over this bad news.  Having worked in a bank for a long time, this kind of news, and worst at that, gives me a chill.  I can only thank the Lord that I didn't experience this kind of heist.  We had one trusted employee who did ala-Robinhood but that was it. 

ug sa akong boss pa sa una Bem after ko na second lang sa contest sa dagan, modaug unta daw among team kon di pa mo hapit akong lubot ug kiay! haahahahahah 

Look at all those ubot2x!

Is it the worst robbery in the Philippine history, Bem?  I think in bank robbery, maybe this is the worst.  If dili pa jud madakpan, ambot na lang!

hahahahahah pirte nako'ng katawa, Bem!  Sus, anad kaayo ko sa mag singgit sa CAT pero pag marcha na, mawala akong ka astig kay mura'g b***t molakaw!

Maring, ayaw na lang tig apas higda na lang diha human ka makahigop ug sabaw baka! hahahahaha

Bem, what do you mean by "tikas"?  hehehe sa amo ra ba kay "tikas" means cheat.

Oh wow!  It's always been my fantasy to soar like a bird!   

Ug asa kaha ko nag laruy2x ug ngano na karon lang nko ni nakaplagan!  Ka cute sa imong adorable little darlings, Tita Birdie oi!  You know what, nagka dako si Shezza, nagkaklaro na liwat sya nimo.  Beautiful mother, beautiful daughter!

Aya san, thanks for sharing these pictures to us! 

HAPPY FIESTA sa tanang taga Manga ug kaliwat taga Manga.  May the blessed Holy Trinity keep on blessing our small barrio and all of its people!

Yesterday, our friend and member of Tubag Bohol Simply_Lee gave our family the honor of her presence.  Dako nako'ng kalipay sa iyang PM which I am sharing excerpt of it here.  Through Tubag Bohol, nadugangan akong higala ug paryente.  Di pa man mi ig-layo kay related man mi sa mga Castillon sa Taloto. 

Here's the excerpt of her PM to me.  I hope okay ra nimo, Tita Lee!

Hi Grazie,

I think you can live comfortably off your expertise in Tagbilaran--with lesser stress and anxiety that characterizes our daily life abroad... Makatilaw na gyud ko sa imong mga pastries pohon. Basta sa Tagbilaran lang gyud mo retire.

Bene san,

There's no other place to come home to but Bohol.  This should happen in the next two to five years pohon.  It would be my pleasure to invite you and your family for a dinner.  Modesty aside, I am equally good in cooking and baking pastries.  I can even prepare a Japanese meal or Italian cuisine or anything!  And GEC is invited as well!

Oh, that is so nice, Tita Birdie that your daughter thanked you for standing your ground while she was still a pain!

I don't buy this promo.  The tax is triple the price of the fare, not to mention the fuel and other insurance surcharges. 

If it sounds too good to be true, it's too good to be true!

hhahahahah malingaw man ko nimo Els oi! 

Dear, ipa apil pod si Sheila ug pirma dire sa imong attendance sheet kay namingaw na ko adtong bayhana! 

Swiss Chard

Swiss, Chard, wish, was, hard, card, ward, war, car

Ako pod, Swaks, na excite ko for all of them na maka attend.  Maayo pa Maricel aka Happy ug Hazel maka una pa'g kiss ni Baby Matt! 

I hope the Cavaliers can beat the Celtics the next time they play kason lang sa home court man sa Celtics oi!  But who knows! 

"Another one bites the dust" tonight and that's Utah Jazz!  I hope and hope that the Hornets will win the next game and let the San Antonio go bite the dust too!     Bitaw, ganahan bya ko San Antonio but it's about time to let other players feel how it is to have those humongous championship rings  and what better team would it be than the Hornets!   

Quote from: benelynne on May 17, 2008, 10:37:00 AM
Basig mugawas ni siya kung makasimhot sa imong cookies and cakes... Murag di man kaayo lami ang ilang pastries sa Bee Farm...

Really, Bene san?  I wish I can be home soon and start my pastry shop there in Bohol.  I also plan to share my skill by providing short courses in cake and cookie decorating and of course, baking too! 

For GEC:  Promise me to show up this July's EB and you'll get from me a cookie with design of your choice!  Be man - or woman enough to take my challenge!  hahahahahha  Gihagit tika ka ka ka!

Wow, so CONGRATULATIONS to both of you because now you have more time to spend with each other, Tita Birdie!  Naa pa jud panghoneymoon!   

Quote from: swakee on May 17, 2008, 01:00:08 PM
wow!!! ka-nice ninyo diha Graziey & Teski! fresh from the backyard...

Swaks, madugangan unya ning among tanum pohon sa imong kamunggay!

Sure, Tita Birdie!  I will take some more basin ugma pohon!

huhuhuhuhuh... luv  the footwear! its Crocs!
summer nah......!

Tua na pod si Ms. Crocs! hahahahaha  Els, di pa summer pero ga testing ang nature ug summer nag triple digit mi for the past 2 days and I think tomorrow too.  Kmusta man imong Mom?  I hope she's okay.  Naa ra bay fire didto sa LA area.

Nalingaw pod ko sa mga pictures with your wife, Bene san! Arigato!

Aya san, mura'g anad nko gamay pero di jud nko basta2x gamiton tong gwapa na mga chopsticks imong gihatag.  I just use the disposable ones that you sent and sometimes mag bitbit ko from Japanese restaurant if naa koy leftover dalhon.   

I remember back when I was still in Cagayan and I was a member of the Bai Lawanen Jaycees, we had Japanese guests to "immerse" unta to both atong cultures but it was more on how to use chopsticks ra man. 

Tolome

You are right, Aya san!  Friends are like flowers that God sprinkled along the road of life!

Kini hinuon yard namo, igo2x pod ni tamnan pero daghan pang buhatonon tawon akong bana.  Ga himo sya ug raised garden beds.

BOC, beautiful pictures of different stages of your life.  But you haven't aged that much, you are still BOC!   

Tiaw ka daghan diay okra inyong itanum, Aya san, kay tabangan man jud ug pugas!  Intawon, gamay ra man ni among garden igo lang makaluto ug pinakbet! heheheh 

Congratulations, Mr. Graham (Langgamtamsi )!  Sa man, I thought just reading from the subject line na si Billy Graham ang ning retire! hehehehehe  Silly me!

Tita Birdie, did you find out na unsay sulod sa envelope?  hahahahahah

The criminals planned this out well.  Meaning, they had sufficient time to process this gruesome crime!  And yet they still proceeded in killing those people.  So barbaric.  So condemnable!  How can they feed their family with the money that, not only did they steal but cost multiple lives of people!

Aya san, ang happy-syndrome disease! hahahahahaa

Oist Aya san, ganina pa ko, pakli2x sa imong mga threads kay gabuhat ko'g flowers.  I was supposed to make the cherry blossoms but I got distracted sa laing thread where you posted chrysanthemum!  Sige lang, after ani cherry blossom na pod.  Na priso ko karon kay pirte ka init sa gawas di jud matabang mo gawas. First time this year na naggamit nako'g aircon. Mo adto lang ko sa garden taud2x mag harvest ug fennel kay maghimo ko'g pasta.  That's it! 

People justify that this kind of crimes is due to poverty.  No, I don't buy that.  This kind of crime is done because of greed and laziness, of being heartless!  Yes, like animals, wild animals at that!  Basin naa pay compassion ang wild animals kaysa aning mga tawhana!  Wa na lang nila gi isip ang mga luha ug kasakit sa pamilya!

Aya san, needless to say, every time I see Orchids, I thought of my dear friend in Japan - my Aya san!   

BOC, you are not alone.  My husband refused to learn how to use chopsticks.  Ingon nya, he's too old to learn! Can't teach new tricks na daw! hahahaha

Aya san, dapat bitaw mag gloves pero wa namo nakita asa gipamutang ni Murage ang mga gloves for gardening.

Yetbo, asa naman imong mga tanum?

More simply beautiful flowers:

Yesterday, Alyssamarie aka smiffy came by straight from school.  After waiting for the mailman to pick up a special package, we went to have lunch at a nearby Japanese restaurant. 

Angat fiesta ra ba sa Manga kay ugma naman ang fiesta.  Naa ba kahay bayle like before?  Am sure naay basketball but wa ko kapangutana kon naa pa bay bayle.  Wa jud hinuon mi kasulay ing-ana oi!  Kahadlok ba kon sa tanang ladies, ikaw ray mabilin way ning sayaw!

Ah that's good, Cel!  Asa nato wa pa mi gakahinagbo dre!  Maayo kay nakita nimo Cel aron ka uban nato dire.

My God!  The whole branch employees naman yata ilang gipatay oi!  I shouldn't say this but maybe, just maybe the victims knew the suspect (s) kay ngano man kinahanglan patyon when all they need is money. 

beets

bee, bees, bet, bets, set, best, est, tee 

Adto ning Monday nag ari si Hapon sa amoa kay aron maghimo pod sya sa garden na gi ready na ni Murage.  She planted tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, zucchini and cucumber.  Here are some pictures:

Yesterday was so hot but not as hot as today.  I think we are gonna hit the triple digit today so I am staying cool inside the house.  But yesterday, Alyssamarie aka smiffytheninja and I were playing in our front hard to counter the heat.  She shared some pictures of her in Picture of the day but I am sharing some more here.   




nakalitan ko sa katugnaw ani oi!

Wow, beautiful kaayo ka Cel with "my" benches!  Salamat, Cel!

OT:  Nice lagi na imong jeans!

Jan, okay ra lagi ayaw ka uwaw!  You'll be fine.  Dili man kinahanglan jud fancy gown yata.

Stairway to Heaven

David Cook or David Archuleta?

Ah ok. Salamat, Cel.

Ah ok.  Thanks, Leo!
