Tips to eat better at home

Image
One of the best solutions to eat better at home is to plan our meals ahead. Let's have our meal on the table, week in and week out, without getting tedious repetition.    Meal planning is a personal thing, what works for your family may not work for another family. Let's find a series of changes taking place in a definite ways of living that is both enjoyable and marvelously boon.  Something came into my mind again those easy-going days, when we can  go to the supermarket anytime we need, some meat for our barbecue and  some butter for our bread, but those are breezy saucy days. Contemporaneously,  instead of letting that hold us back   today as of something requisite  to prevent food waste because we only have sometimes to make the phone errand  for our food delivery company to get our groceries or once in a while a traipse to grocery shop because of the  urge in ...

A quick-witted awakening

Image
Something about waking up in my own home for 2 days and seeing everything, all the surroundings that I always look daily was covered in a white layer of snow. All the trees, the sidewalks. The plenary world just looked genuinely different for a few hours. It was really, a quick-witted awakening. I could not stop looking at my window. 'The first day of snow - a view from the back of our house' The sight of the snowflakes in the second early morning made my entire day tasks powerfully clear..... Time for me to go to the nearby grocery... Ha!ha!ha! Snowflakes is an overwhelming impression of the supernatural power, that we should always be grateful!!!

Snow M-A-G-I-C

Image
I remember the first time I saw snow that was last Febraury of this year.... being a Filipina, you can imagine this was quite new experience for me. It was ridiculously incredible. I just had to leave everything else, and go outside. Nothing would ever be the same. The world was M-A-G-I-C everything became pure and captivatingly enchanted all of the sudden. Time just stopped and I all I wanted was to be there, clammed up observing... And I wanted to document the occasion... Here's my so-called phonographic writing!

Just missing my Mom!

Image
We had a party! I felt a bit homesick because its my Mom's birthday, just missing my Mom. Hubby and me decided to celebrate Mom's birthday last Nov 29th, my Mom's 64th birthday celebration abroad. Wished my Mom was here with us on her special day so we could celebrate the way we cherished her 64th birthday. We made cool invites our friends and neighbors. View my own captured photos .... some of the foody goodies! Antipasto means "before the meal" "coppa, salamella and pancetta". "prosciutto crudo and salame".

No one can possibly know what is about to happen.....

There is no any strongly fortified place, it happened in a mall??? I don’t know what's other way to write, other than that I can’t understand anything that’s been happening in the Philippines.... quizzically, questioning 'if life really has changed? So many of us angled off dozens of times without a thought this will happened in Glorietta 2 where the sudden outbreak bowled over. We don’t know what that means anymore. The story is told in fragments from the points of view, as what I have looked in news that the military yesterday said the outburst attack on the country’s premier financial district was a “terrorist act” regardless of who carried it out. A powerful blast ripped through three floors of a shopping mall in Makati City, killing ten people and wounding about 130.

The fear of being alone

Image
.... Why are so many people afraid to be alone? Why some people didn't realized that being alone is the biggest challenge. We feel empty when we want to share love with another and there isn’t anyone there to be with or in closed connection. But being alone is a determination of life. The truth is that the only time we actually feel the emptiness is when we abdicate ourselves. I was browsing around, I just passed at this video. Ten years ago she was one of Filipina actress that I idolized. This page requires a higher version browser The hard fact that causes the fear of being alone is self-abandonment. If we are brimming boundness for ourselves – listening to ourselves, marveling ourselves, accepting and loving ourselves emotionally, spiritually, financially and physically, we can buzz off the battle-scarred fear of emptiness. Just like this photo. I think things crop up for a reason to make us who we are and if we change that then who would we be.... It's funny the thi...

Coffee drinking is perfectly safe!

Image
People used to say coffee is a groovy consumed beverage. Coffee is like a friend that knows you and bumbles your day. Everyone has their soft spots or hang-ups as you named it, with coffee it calm down your soul and plop smile on your face. Caffeine in coffee can help increase levels of alertness and concentration. But for me is just a social thing but I love the smell and the taste of really good strong coffee, freshly ground. But my husband is totally addicted to coffee more than me. The day is not thoroughgoing with out coffee, he have 3-4 cups of coffee everyday. Everyone has their weaknesses or addictions, but coffee is a better choice than alcohol. The overall published studies and conclusion is that coffee drinking is perfectly safe if consume well with balanced diet.

The sink of married life

Some people are stressed because they have many things to do.....so little time. I’m sure if we have to take a piece of paper and list down all the things which are ask strongly with attention is not that easy to fill out the page because everyday is a learning node to the sink of married life "specially to the housewives" just like me. If there is to do, like an urgent stuff, getting at the time what we ought or feel is important, the best way is to make things one step at a time. A simple action will give the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. The boredom stage will decrease making ourselves free from hang-ups and move through the game of life with desire and peace in our heart. Yup! I am still slinking at my computer even at this time that I have some work to do in and outside of the house that need to be done before my wonderful hard working husband arrives home. Okey, got to go to the kitchen now need to prepare the lunch and then take a shower. For today a...
