We don't want you to think that we have an untalented, unskilled cousin. Marc Genesis Abella is, in fact, a fantastic guitarist. And to prove that to you... I have a clip of his performance with the Molave Junction of the Eagles' Hotel California: It was our niece's 1st birthday turned oldies party, hence, the uber kikay decoration around the place. And it was raining... HARD! Marc is only 14 years old and only started playing the guitar a couple of years ago. The music clip is available here... Marc Abella's Guitar Solo

How to Make Italian Cream Puffs
Here's a short how-to video for making Italian Cream Puffs. It is called Italian, because the filling is made of sweet cheese rather than Bavarian or Cream. Puff Pastry Ingredients 1/2 cup Butter (preferably salted) 1 cup Water 1 cup pre-sifted Flour 1/4 teaspoon Salt 4 Eggs This is a standard puff pastry recipe. Filling Ingredients 1/2 cup Cream Cheese* 1/4 cup Ricotta Cheese* 1/4 cup Sugar *1 cup Mascarpone Cheese (instead of Cream Cheese and Ricotta) can be used if available. Chocolate Sauce Ingredients 1 cup Bittersweet Chocolate Chips 1 tablespoon Butter We used half this recipe only. The video features me - Ria Jose, my cousin Gwing Cabreira, and my aunts Ivi Cabreira and Baby dela Serna.

You're So Vain
You’re So Vain by Carly Simon You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye on the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they’d be your partner They’d be your partner, and... You’re so vain, you probably think this song is about you You’re so vain, I’ll bet you think this song is about you Don’t you? don’t you? You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive Well you said that we made such a pretty pair And that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and... I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee Clouds in my coffee, and... Well I hear you went up to saratoga and your horse naturally won Then you flew your lear jet up to nova scotia To see the total eclipse of the sun Well you’re where you should be all the time And when you’re not…
