The Prodigal Son Returns

Sad to say, I haven't been blogging lately. Staying home during the recent quarantine(s) should have been the ideal time. What else was there to do?

As it turned out, reading and watching Netflix were more vital than blogging.

I've decided now to get back to it and update my three blogs - robertsimms.blogspot.com-sorryalltheclevernamesaretaken.blogspot.com-dumaguetewebsite.blogspot.com .

This post will be simultaneously published on all three blogs as a sort of welcoming back, as it were.

There had been snafus; sorryalltheclevernamesaretaken.blogspot.com had been banned from Facebook for going against "community standards". Anyone familiar with that blog knows I am not guilty of that. I won't mention names, but I believe someone I had a disagreement with (and unfriended on Facebook) may have sent a complaint to Facebook out of petty spite.

This bit of foolishness was gotten around by starting the new blog, robertsimms.blogspot.com. The person I suspect is unaware of this new blog and will never see links to it on Facebook.

The only minor problem I had was that the new blog could not immediately display adsense ads....a problem which should be cleared up soon.

I checked this morning, and the older blog is still banned from Facebook. So be it. I'll continue to add posts to my other two blogs and put links to those two on Facebook.

Am I Welcomed Back?

As anyone can see, I haven't been posting on this blog recently. Part of the reason for this has been the banning of this blog on Facebook. As I write this post, I do not know if the ban is still in effect.

I will attempt to post this, and I'll include the results of this test at a later time.

Wish me luck.

Pineapple Cake

Last Friday, I published a post on one of my other blogs, about my adventures with baking banana cake (AKA banana bread) using 3rd class flour. The banana cake turned out so well that I decided to try making a pineapple cake.

The photo is above.

I'll be making this again. We all enjoyed it, and it's quick and easy.

The recipe is essentially the same as a banana cake with a few minor changes. Of course, the bananas are substituted with crushed pineapple. I use white sugar instead of brown, and I completely leave out the vanilla and cinnamon.

Living Room Ceiling - Day One.

It's been quite a long time since I last posted anything about the work being done on the house. In this post, I'll be publishing some photos of the recent work on the living room ceiling.

We're hoping to completely finish the entire ceiling (including dining room and kitchen) soon. There will be more photos to follow.
