Yes, that's an actual cereal bridge!







My friend and I tried to recreate a smaller version of the cereal bridge inspired by the cereal challenges from the food network. We thought it would be easy and at first it was. We even laughed and said this isn't so hard. Until, we started noticing the cereal bridge sagging. In the end, the bridge collapse on its own (a video will be posted of this soon).

Another thing I'm guessing is my marshmallow and cereal ratio was not right. Once again, I give way too much credit to the strength of marshmallows. If you take anything out of this post, take this, MARSHMALLOW IS NOT STRONG!!! But, at least we tried, so thank you B for helping in this cereal bridge sculpture and now we can say we tried.

Sincerely,

Day 31: Trick or Treat





The Great Pumpkin! As a kid, I never carved a pumpkin for Halloween. Instead, I usually wore the same costume and trick or treated in the shopping mall. So, today, I'll be carving my first pumpkin with some friends. I can't wait! As you can see, I've done some practicing with this cereal treat.

PS Thanks to my other roommie for lending me the tea light and lighter.

Day 30: Is That Delivery?



Pizza, mmmm just thinking about it makes me salivate. I especially love pineapple pizza! In my world, I could have slices of many different pizzas (supreme, pepperoni, mushrooms, olives, love it all) without any of the guilt :p The funny thing is, I actually had pizza tonight. Thanks to my friends for baking some CPK take home thin crust pizzas, they were yummy!

This piece today you can really call it "dessert pizza!"

Day 29: Rock n' Roll




Some of you may know that I like to "play" the guitar. I put play in quotes because I like to write my own songs to play and I'm not very good at playing cover songs. So, I admit it, I'm an aspiring songwriter, who has stage fright of course! But, I love putting chords together with catchy and meaningful lyrics, just as much as creating cereal sculptures.

BTW I give huge props to those who pipette frosting. It's really hard as you can see.

Day 28: Crangrejo



One of my most favorite seafood is definitely crab. I love the warm meat and gooey stuff (it also makes for excellent soup). One of my fondest memories was that of my mom making me crab by boiling it and then turning the boiled water into soup. In that soup, she would put glass noodles in it. It was such a delicious meal!

Day 27: Lasagna and Meatballs



I have two friends whose birthdays are in this month. One makes a mean lasagna and the other makes a mean spaghetti and meatballs! When they invite me over to eat their wonderful dishes, I'm so happy and can't wait. I always loved lasagna since I was a kid. You could say I'm like Garfield that whenever I smell lasagna, I'm very alert.

Day 26: Swimming Hole



Do you have that special childhood memory of swimming in something other than a swimming pool? Well, back where I'm from, I remember swimming with my Dad at the Inarajan pools (at least from what I see in my old photo albums). Swimming pools are definitely great, but to swim in something that was naturally made, you can definitely get a feel for God's creation!
