ok,,,,,i dont cook much....but when i do i try to do my best :)

this is a great and very easy desert!

Oh....I love Fridays!

yes i do!
Its the only day of the week that has so much hope in it...hope for the things you can do during the weekend....
my plans for this weekend are pretty simple but simplicity is what i need....
i want to go for a walk at the forest park near my house....hopefully it will last more than 1 hour....which is a luxury for me these days.my mom, sis and i plan to wake up early tomorrow to go so we can enjoy the morning breeze :)
afterwards, I want to visit my grandma in the nursery home.
She was so good today, her eyes wide open, talkative and in a great mood.
I didnt have a very close relationship with her all these years because she choose my cousins over my sister and me.....she raised them and didn't have much room in her heart for us as well.but my mama taught us how to be compassionate and now its the time to show it to our grandma.
i am almost certain she understands what going on and she may even have some regrets. i keep telling her she shouldn't be sad but enjoy our time together. its no use in wasting her energy in regrets ha?
and of course on Sunday i plan on going to church or maybe somewhere else....

If anyone is reading this blog i hope you plan big because its worth it....
if you plan big some of it all will happen....if you don't plan then nothing is going to happen :)

Lots of love,
Chris

Housewife.....

Begining from today and until friday im a good housewife....
im not married of course, i live with my family but for 4 days ill pretend to be a good housewife......
i woke up early in the morning, cleaned the house and had our lunch ready by the time my family came home...so....i guess this makes me a housewife ha?
well.....i think i would hate it if it was for a long period but since i kno its only for a few days i looooove love loooooove it!
of course theres a reason for it.......
i had a small operation and need to stay at home for a few days plus my mom needs help with things at home so she can focus on her studies....what a better way for me to show my love and support......she has done it for sooo many years and has been through so much with my studies....i think she deserves all i can give.....

Grandma in the hospital...

My granmother is in the hospital with a triple stroke....things are not looking good, the doctors are trying to prepare us for her dieing.
on the other hand she is responding to our talks by squezzing our hand and opening and closing her eyes...at the end of the day only God knows our destiny and when our last day is written...
Peace and love others as your self...for thats what He did...
