From Bbq to Dad: Fire Me Up!

I am craving for Barbecue for days now, and I have been dying to try my own recipe, and so I will today. Every Sunday my Mom prepares an ala fiesta food for us, it's like your guilt free day for all those who are dieting. I was sharing this with my boyfriend and asked if I can grill the barbecue, I laughed at him, maybe because he hasn't seen me grilling. So I told him, If there is something I am good at not just devouring a book its grilling food, I do not know why but grilling is like talent for me, probably because I love eating and I have my way of how it is done.
Or maybe I grew up so much around my Dad and inherited his love for fire. I can remember how easily he can flamed the coals for our barbecue or how log can catch up fire easily when we're cooking outside. Maybe if I will try as well I can make long flame candles that last for years. He used to make candles out of the denture's wax from his patients model denture. Yucky as it sound, but those candles he made last for years with us, he even made a 4 feet candle in time for All Saint's Day, and we used it for more than five years.
So I better hurry up and buy my barbecue ingredient and if this goes well, soon, it'll be for sale.

the picture is my fave pix of me dad and ate, when we were still.. well manageable. lol!

The Reading Challenge

At the start of the year there were two reading challenges I committed myself to The Goodreads Reading Challenge where you will decide how many books you can read for the year. The other one I got from my cousin but upon searching in Google it's a Popsugar Reading Challenge.  I must have underestimated my annual calendar because I challenged my self to red 50 books in Goodreads. I thought "50 books? Oh that's nothing, I have all the time in the world." And guess what? It's mid of November and here's my reading challenge. Apparently I didn't plan on being too busy during mid year but I'm not complaining I just didn't expect it to be like that. Still, I'm happy to I have read 25 books so far. And these are mostly YA books. What's with YA anyway? Am I old to be reading it? But that's another blog entry I suppose. I am happy to discover new authors that I will sure follow (Sarah Haas, Cassandra Rose Clarke) and the likes. With these 2...

How To Be Interesting So That Other Can Envy and Notice You

My whole 32 years of existence, ok, minus the toddler years where I don’t really care; I want to be wanted, desirable, likable and according to Google, to achieve this you must be interesting and as part of my research that’s why  I came across this book. I hunted for this book in the hope that I can get tips so I can be interesting. In the cover it says:   Rule # 1. One must be attractive .  – If you are such a good friend or sister you will tell your mates that its personality that wins. I agree, but for the others to notice you, you must be attractive or else they will not make that second look or  make an effort to get to know you thus you are not given the chance to showcase your great personality. So, yes, a nod to this rule #1. Rule #2. One must be friends with other attractive people – Ever heard of the saying “Tell me who your friends are and I tell you who you are”? Now that you’re attractive do not stop there and make friends ...

Rediscovering what sparks joy

Hi, if there's really anyone reading this blog. I kept this blog open more of a open diary and realized that writing is form of therapy for me. For all those bottled up feeling that I couldn't express. The last blog post I did was 2019 that I started a vlog in YouTube, sadly that vlog is no longer existing. I could make up excuses as to why but its really one complicated reason, which could be for another blog post. I was going to write that its been a year since I last posted but and then realized that its 2022 now, well it could be a year if we don't really count 2020.  Since moving to the States five years ago (2020 counted here), I was busy trying to make my family and I's life better, financially more or less, ok more so I was really busy with work and making more money. Unconsciously trying to fulfill the wants that I couldn't afford. In the process, I forgot what would make me happy. At the rise of tiktok I have discovered posts that intrigued my curiosity. I...
