red bean popsicles...

I seem to be on a role with blogging these days... today my theme is popsicles!

I love popsicles! I thought I loved any and every kind of popsicle, but apparently I was wrong about that...

Today I came to the conclusion that there are some popsicles that I just can't love! On Thursday mornings, I "teach" a very casual English class in a nearby city and after class we eat lunch together. Today after lunch, we ate popsicles! But... much to my disappointment, they were red bean/orange/pineapple popsicles! Let's just say that no matter how much I love popsicles, I will never love these ones! The pineapples and oranges were really chunky but tolerable. The beans however.... well, they just don't belong in a popsicle in my opinion!! These red beans are apparently classified as 'sweet' here, but I just don't like beans... and I certainly don't like them in my popsicles!

Oh well... now I know to stay away from them! I am glad that someone else had bought them and it wasn't something I had spent money on only to find I didn't like them at all!

Here's a picture of one that was kind of like the one I ate... What do you think?


Yesterday I went to the store to go umbrella shopping and I found an umbrella that I really liked! But... it was on display up high, opened and hanging on a hook. No matter how far I stretched, I just couldn't manage to get it off the hook... and there was no one around to ask for help! (Not that I'd be able to clearly ask for help even if there was someone to ask!) All the other ones just weren't good enough for me after comparing them to the perfect pink and polka dotted one on display above them! Sigh... I guess I'll just have to wait on that one. Maybe it was God's way of reminding me I don't really need to spend money on an umbrella since rainy season is pretty much over!

Last night turned out to be a beautiful evening! I actually made time to go watch the sunset and boy am I glad I did! It was gorgeous! Here's some of the pictures I took...

The first one was with normal settings and the second one was with the 'sunset' setting on my camera. I can't decide which one I like better!


I love sunsets... what a beautiful and perfect gift from God :) Isn't our God amazing?!
