Cafe Gratitude
2011-01-01 00:00:00 Cafe Gratitude is located at 1730 Shattuck Avenue (near Virginia) in Berkeley. There are two other locations in San Francisco and the newest restaurant is in San Rafael. The phone number for all four restaurants is 415-824-4652, including the Berkeley location.This is a great vegetarian/vegan restaurant. It's also a raw food restaurant. If you're not familiar with raw food, don't let this scare you off. You probably wouldn't know the food is "raw" if someone hadn't told you. Everything is really delicious (my favorite is the lasagna). Even my meat-eating friends like this place.It's a little pricey for a lunch location, but if you take into consideration all the work that goes into making something raw and so tasty, then you realize it's not so expensive. And you know that what you're eating doesn't only taste good, but is good for you.You have to be willing to share your table with strangers (although this doesn't always happen) and usually very cheery servers that will a...

Wondertime
2008-06-03 16:01:00 I have a new favorite magazine. I like it so much that I sent it to two of my friends after I got my first copy in the mail.Maybe you already know about it. It's called Wondertime. The tag line is "celebrate your child's love of learning."I'll save the review of the magazine for Props and Pans (where it's been sitting in my drafts folder for entirely too long. Sorry, Emily!), but for now, I would like to give something back to y'all. The people that read these words.The people who have helped me through some tough times. The people who overlooked my lack of grace and my sometimes plain stupidity.So here it is. My first giveaway.I would like to give away a subscription of Wondertime to one of you fabulous readers.And because I know that a give away tends to lure in more comments than usual, I'll up the anty.If we can get 25 different commenters, then I'll give away 2 subscriptions.If there are 40 different commenters, then I'll give away 3 subscriptions.So leave me a comment...

A Post of Gratitude
2008-05-31 16:52:00 I am really thankful to all my loving blogger friends who commented on my post "My Life as of Today." It was very heartwarming to receive 31 comments of prayers, concerns, and advices. I may have not posted so much nor grab some opps but I was resting my mind and my body. I was reading all of your comments over and over again just to come up with a decision that I might not regret later. Aside from that, I was also pondering all the thoughts inside my mind, my heart and my beliefs. I needed to decide and I needed to be careful.By God?s grace, my heart and my mind came up with a decision. Yes! I am still leaving Bacolod on June 3, 2008. We have our tickets now and it?s no turning back. I am leaving not to be separated with my husband in a marital way but just to take time to rest from all the pains and time for my hubby to recuperate from his weaknesses. I don?t deny the fact that sometimes I may be stupid for always giving him a chance but I still do love him. I love my kids and I l...
Learning Lessons - The Easier ?Hard? Way
2008-05-30 15:21:00 It is no real issue if you consider you've actually done everything to learn a lesson from a mistaken or erroneous action. The main thing is learning the lesson and then moving on. Don't worry; if you haven't in fact learned the lesson properly, you'll no doubt get another chance -- life seems to work out that way!

My family. I love saying that.
2008-05-19 03:42:00 I love them so much that just looking at this picture makes me burst into tears while simultaneously feeling like the corners of my mouth are going to split wide open up to my ears from smiling so much.It should be noted that about an hour after this picture was taken, Bird had the biggest diaper blow out to date all over his daddy's good shirt and pants. Of course.

Had to change the title of this one
2008-05-16 20:05:00 This summer, we will head to the beach with Whymommy and her family. For a celebration. Not a goodbye. I cannot put into words how thankful I am for that.Susan has always been my "see it from a different perspective" friend. The friend who makes me think outside of my box.In high school, my box was very very tiny, so that wasn't a hard thing. One foot in either direction had me reeling outside of my box. She was very patient with my tiny little private school mind.Over the years, we have talked, traveled, cried (but not much because we are oh so strong women who really need to get more comfortable with a tissue), laughed, and learned together. She lasted in the learning part far past I did. I bored easily with school, and she tackled it with a vengeance.She was on the same trip to Mexico which generated the most embarrassing story of my entire life. And she still loves me. I don't know why.She read my angst filled, totally rhyming poetry in high school. And she still loves me.She ...
Gratitude
2008-05-14 02:40:00 I apologize if you haven't seen anything new from me about kitchens or baths for a while.Life has been ridiculously busy, chaotic, new, fun, exciting, challenging, enlightening, and continues to be more so everyday.This post is really simple and short. It is about gratitude for the people who enter into my life. As I reach out to people in my community I learn more about myself. Maybe it's old age, maybe the cavalier attitude of youth has shed it's shell on me, but whatever it is, I am grateful.

Blog Your Blessings Sunday - A Week of Gratitude
2008-04-27 06:01:00 Walking in the Summer rain, Noisy wee-folk in their play, In hush that stills a boisterous day, In waterbeads on windowpane. In bell-clear tones when robin sings, Dew-kissed web a spider weaves, Rich and gold of Autumn leaves, And fairy-flakes that Winter brings. A gentle pat upon my cheek, In glancing moonbeams on a lake, In happy laughter children make While wading in a rushing creek. In ...

Power Of Gratitude
2008-04-20 12:13:00 Psalm 69:30: I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving. Everyone knows how to be grateful yet not everyone made gratitude to be part of their living even though they are aware about the power of gratitude. Those who have made gratitude to be part of their nature, will always be in the state of experiencing joy. Gratitude can lead to happiness, because happiness is a state of being. You can only feel happy if you choose to be happy. Happiness is not about wanting the things that you want. Happiness is about wanting the things that you have. You can do that easily if you start being grateful for things that you have possessed in your life. If you ever feel not good, remind yourself that you are part of the Universe and be grateful for every circumstance that arises to you. It is there to lead you to something better or something you been wanting. You do not know, anything can take place right on the next moment of your life. Your life will ...

Of Gratitude Lists...............
2008-04-02 11:12:00 I have a friend who mentioned to me a while back that although there are aspects of my personality that she does not like, she likes the way that I relate to cats and what I do for cats in general. Last night we had a chat and I was telling her how I cannot pull myself out of this negativity I feel about my job and for the first time in my life I just CANNOT see the positive. Anyway, to cut a long story short - I woke up this morning and realized that this is one of the aspects of my personality that she more than likely does not like. I am not practicing what I preach with regards to positive thinking. And no matter what my reasons are I need to get my ass in gear and JUST DO IT! So, today is the beginning of my new life. I have decided to stick my job out and see the positive. In this vein, my Gratitude List for today reads as follows: I am grateful that I have a well paying job when many out there do not. I am grateful that my job ...

Gratitude Is the Parent of all Virtues
2008-02-16 17:23:00 "Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others." -Cicero, Ancient Roman Statesman and Philosopher, Cicero books// Gratitude is more than saying 'Thank You'; it is living in a state of thankfulness. It is truly appreciating the people, experiences, blessings and circumstances that create an existence unique to you. Gratitude is a state of being, which when cultivated properly projects itself like beams of sunlight radiating from an individual out unto the world. It is not a reflective force, bur rather it generates its own source of energy from within. It is the internal combustion engine that powers our desire to help one another and spread the seeds of...
