Friday's Fave Five #12

It's time for another Friday's Fave Five (hosted by Susanne at Living to Tell the Story).

My fave five this week include:
1. Pocky's Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Sticks.  It's my favorite childhood snack in Thailand.  I'm so glad that I can buy them in Asian grocery stores here.  My kids love them, too :).

2. Writing poems.  I enjoy writing poems; this week I wrote two.  I'll share them sometime on this blog (they still need some polishing).  On Tuesday, I just posted one of my old poems, Complete in Christ, at Faithful Feet (the international Christian blog that I'm a part of).

Christianity3. Christian.com.  A free social network for Christians around the world.  If you sign up, please add me as a friend (I'm Urailak L.).

4. Conservative Homeschooler.  This is a conservative Christian homeschooling site for moms and dads to gather for friendship, faith, and fellowship. They just moved from ning site to a new site.  If you sign up, please add me as a friend (I'm "LivingforGod" there :)).

5. "Trying to Forget".  My 16 year old daughter, Alyssa, just made her second pro-life short film for the 36 hour film contest at Christianfilmmakers.org.  I think it turned out really well, considering that the film was made within 36 hours.  Note: Please turn off my music playlist at the bottom of this page before starting the video.  I notice that the video gets cut off on the right side here; please go to YouTube to see the full screen.

P.S. You can see her first pro-life short film here.

    Thats wonderful that your daughter is making videos like that, this generation is so much more talented in those things than we were.

    We love chocolate covered pretzels too.

    I have a former student who homeschools her children and I've sent her the link to the homeschooling site. It sounds like one that she would really enjoy.

    Mmm..those chocolate pretzel sticks look so good!

    A 16 year old filmmaker -- great. And how great that she wants to use her passion for such a cause. Keep encouraging her! (I have a son who just got a film degree and lives in N. Hollywood.)

    Happy weekend!

    Congrats to your daughter on her video! She's a courageous young woman to tackle such a 'hot' topic. God will most certainly bless her.
