Revolutionary Cream Cheese Delivery System


Revolutionary Cream Cheese Delivery System
Originally uploaded by Pablo Mercado.

I found this "bread" at the local market. I was compelled to purchase it by its appealing shape, size and packaging. Little did I know that my cream cheese eating life was about to be revolutionized.



I am pretty sure that ancient man invented this bread, then invented cream cheese, and then invented the wheel to more efficiently deliver the cream cheese to where the bread is...

Adolfo on 3rd base waiting to come home
This nailbiting game was intense for about 3 minutes when Adolfo went to bat
he struck out twice and then...
HE HIT IT
and made it all the way to 1st base
WOO HOO!

as we were both feeling guilty for not practicing with him more often, we were so glad he didn't strike out...

Easter weekend was a BLAST! - Here is Adolfo all geared up as Commander Space Pro in his space-travel suit just before taking off to the Moon and then beyond!
Some family, some food, even some burnt hot dogs, made for a very relaxing and memorable day.
Everyone we love was in our prayers as we sat down to dine on a Michoacan favorite, Pork Ribs in Chile Negro sauce.
Happy Easter everyone!

UM.....MR. Mercado now qualifies for Social Security



If I am correct, which would be a first in relation to dates, this past Sunday was Paul's birthday. If so Happy birthday Mr Mercardo.

STS-123

Hey all,

Just got back from visiting my Parents down in Florida. My dad is working with NASA and got us VIP seating for this past Shuttle launch. It was one of those experiences that I can write a bunch of words about and still come nowhere close to expressing it.

Hannah took a little film of it, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whdL0NvUN1o

Check it out...hannah screams a couple times..super awesome.
Some of the other vids have a great view of how much the night was lit up.

Check out this one.

Super RAD and unbeliveable.

Adolfo's half birthday happened this year so quickly - i did manage to record his height - and he has lost 2 teeth so far - the highlight is the wii which encourages him to move around when the days are too cold and wet
so far he's responded pretty well to it and respects the rules of the house in regards to it - i think we're off to a good start
now
what other games to buy...

Worky Work


Setup from Taggart Sorensen on Vimeo.

So Brad started setting up his point and shoot and doing time lapse videos of us setting up shop.
Watching one and a half hours condensed into five minutes is pretty terrific.
It's like watching water boil really fast.
I added the final product at the beginning and the end.
I thought about adding music but really could not think about what to add.
Zip Zip Zip back and forth.
In the video you will see how the fire is turned off shortly after it is turned on.
Aside from that the rest of the shot is done in one exposure.
