"Nothing would be more tiresome than eating and
drinking if God had not made them a pleasure as well as a necessity", words by Voltaire.
True, realizing that the Lord promised blessing and bounty makes life worth living, and Him worth praising. But not all have free access to this information, what we need to understand also is that rewards have been set to those who wins. And how do we win? Easy! We only need to win His heart. I am not being charismatic here, this is practically the truth, what was real and essential in my life, in my marriage and in my family. I came to realize that there are people who drowns themselves with pleasure yet forget where it really came from. In the lows and highs of my life one thing stands true, that the Lord I came to know is true and alive in me. Yes you may not see Him, nor touch, nor taste, but I've felt Him and He remains in my heart and my thoughts.
Today, food seems not only seen as a necessity but as an object of fanaticism. I've actually read in a certain PR material that there is such a thing as "food worship."
This is now my prayer that anyone who reads my blog, also gain the full understanding that we are all loved and well taken cared of, if it may seem you are troubled and you find comfort in things such as food, dining and even fashion, don't be mislead. He is the ultimate source of everything! So go back to Jesus!

This all came to me one night after a very full meal that my husband and I had at Corniche at the Diamond Hotel. No we aren't that rich, you might be saying, this people are throwing money on a dinner. As I was saying, it is not wrong to enjoy God's bounty, it is God's purpose for us to be happy and enjoy life at His blessing. We had the buffet for P399, a load of discount from Ensogo deals. What made the dinner more delighting is sharing the blessing with the person you would want to spend an expensive and romantic dinner at the hotel or restaurant with.
I pray the same for you and hope you find my pictures okay, no we didn't eat more than our tummies' could have but we tried to sample everything they offer to their clients.

"Very few people possess true artistic ability.
It is therefore both unseemly and unproductive to irritate
the situation by making an effort.
If you have a burning, restless urge to write or paint,
simply eat something sweet and
the feeling will pass. "
