A lovely Gift

When I started blogging, I didn’t realize how big the community was.  In the past two years I got to know so many people all over the world.  Their stories inspired me in a way I couldn’t imagine.   I even made friends from people across the world.  One of these beautiful people I got to know is Maya from Foodiva.  I was admiring some molds she used in one of her posts.  I have been looking for something similar to use for my hopia recipe.  She was so sweet and asked if I wanted some.  I felt so touch that she would even consider sending me anything from so far away.  Load and behold I received a package of a set of molds.  Unfortunately when they arrived they sat for a while.  I was nearing the end of my pregnancy and I was so tired.  I never had a chance to properly thank her. 


Maya –
Thank you for being a wonderful friend and an inspiration to me.  I have been an avid reader through I may not comment all the time.  I enjoy reading about all of your adventures and your willingness to make some of the most beautiful dishes.   
Love,
Joy
I did get a chance to make something out of the molds…..Jello.  The Daughter loved them, especially since they were so pretty.  I just used a basic Pandan recipe from the box.  I know I cheated.
