Teddy’s Photo Shoot

Solange has been dying to have a professional photo shoot with props and lighting. So one day, she snuck out when I was on a conference call and came back with the photos from the shoot. They really turned out great. Of course, the photo studio does not give you digitals but prints. So I had to scan them in, and then make this slide show. I really have to wonder when these photographers will enter the digital age! Hey that’s it! I’m going to open up a photo studio and only use digital technology. Oh well. that’s for another day. Enjoy Teddy’s photo shoot.

In Memory of Jeff Nassiff


I just learned that Jeff Nassiff passed away two nights ago. He had a long struggle with cancer. Jeff was a colleague of mine at Gateway from the very beginning. I remembered that I had taken a video when Jeff, RJ and Brad came to visit Myrtle Beach in March 2002. I re-edited the video as a tribute to Jeff. Rest in Peace, Jeff.

  1. I hadn’t seen Jeff since I graduated in 1981 but had a huge crush on him all through elementary school and Jr. High. We went to church and school together and I was in David’s class. I am so sorry to hear he is gone but so glad to know that we will see him again one day. Hello to his Sioux City family and friends.

  2. I don’t think I’ve ever met you Rob, but I wanted to thank you for putting the video on your post. I am one of Jeff’s sisters. We will all miss him. He meant a lot to many people – had a way of connecting. I have been moved by the love his friends showed throughout his illness and his passing. He appreciated all of the support and prayers so much – he loved life, and he knew God richly blessed him. Thank you – Kathy

  5. Jeff – what a great guy – i was lucky enough to have an office next to Jeff for a couple years at Gateway – Nassiff always seemed to be at ease at whatever he was doing work or play. Be well Jeff.

Teddy Goes to the Beach

As I already documented earlier, Teddy’s christening had a cloud over it because the Father at our church would not allow Augusto to be the Godfather. He did allow Augusto to attend the Christening, and we took some photos of the big event. Solange was really excited for the event and bought Teddy a special outfit just for the occasion.

The weather is finally clearing up and we decided to take Teddy on a little trip to the beach. Teddy loved the experience playing in the sand and the water the entire time. I pulled out my camera and took a ton of great photos. It was hard to decide which ones to leave out. Teddy is definitely a full fledged beach boy. I can’t wait for him to get a load of the beaches in Rio de Janeiro.

Jesse Cheng’s 80th Birthday Party


My father turned 80 on March 27, 2008, and we decided to have a full celebration for him on Saturday March 28, 2008. We all spent the entire day together from lunch to dinner. We are all so busy in our lives that we don’t spend as much time meeting with your loved ones. I put together this video commemorating the occasion. The background music is Kool and the Gang’s Celebrate. I also put in a Ken Burns effect.

Chinese Baked Fish

I’ll put this recipe in the category of tasty and fast. The recipe is literally 30 minutes from preparation to food on the table. I like this recipe also because I invented it. It is fashioned around many similar recipes that you can order in most authentic Chinese restaurants.

Ingredients

  • fish filets (whiting, tilapia, flounder)
  • green onions
  • ginger
  • cilantro
  • soy sauce
  • sesame oil
  • red pepper
  • sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop finely large amounts of ginger and green onions. In a large baking dish, make a nice size bed of green onions and ginger, and then lay each filet on top of the bed. Then liberally sprinkle more ginger and green onions on top of filets. Mix in a small cup 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 table spoon of sesame oil, 1 table spoon sugar, and a dash of red pepper. (Don’t put in too much red pepper). Slowly pour the soy sauce mixture over each piece of fish just making each fish a little brown.

Cover with tin foil and place in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the foil, and sprinkle chopped cilantro. Serve with rice.
