Hot Milo and Bread Pan

This is my usual breakfast. I grew in the province usually we prepare our breakfast with fried rice, dried fish(tuyo), fried egg if not we buy pandesal together with hot coffee. I remember when i was young i dip the pandesal in my coffee or in my cup of milo. Its yummy!

Living in manila is very different, there's a lot of changes, culture shock, the environment. I work here and as a bed spacer it is hard to do things especially cooking, we are not allowed to cook. That's why my breakfast is always a cup of coffee or milo a pack of biscuit or noodles sometimes. But i bought a rice cooker. Sometimes i cook easy dishes that can be done in the rice cooker. But what i miss most is frying driend fish and other dishes i know. Good thing that my mother is visiting once or twice a week. She always bring good food for me.

Sometimes i miss my life in the province, clean air, happy people, simplicity, nature. But the reality that job is rare that is why i am here. Living my life alone away from my family. But what i really miss most is the family bonding, eating breakfast to dinner together...And my the fresh carabao milk i bought in my neighbor, this is good with hot steam rice and fried fish or dried fish.
I guess you need to try this i assure you, you will love it! Ciao!

Age doesn't matter

At one point in our lives we all experience to fall in love. Maybe there are times we dated a man who's either too young or too old for us. Think 8-10 years younger or older. What is the difference of dating younger men or older men? Did it lead us to a relationship? Does age ruin the relationship or lead it to a nice happy ending?

I am into a relationship right now and he is older than me. So, what? We compliment each other, enjoy each other company, respect one another, love and devote each each other.
Does age really matter? If there are no family problems to deal with just enjoy each other every day you can don't let anyone mess with your relationship. Face the world face the reality no matter what people say as long as you have each other everything will be fine. Life is too short let it be happy!

In my relationship, i achieved a certain level of experience, confidence and unconditional love. He help me face a lot of things in life encourage me to be strong and be mature. I am very grateful that i have him in my life. Love is not only having common interest, its more on sharing love in equal amounts and not asking anything in return. What's important is compatibility and respect. If there's no respect no relationship will work. If there is love let there be and enjoy the love you have.

Age is just a number! Don't count the age of your partner instead count the beautiful things you guys did to each other. We don't know how long it will last but at least we treasure everything and have the knowledge and trust that it won't end badly that you two will separate till your last breath.

It is important to find a partner who will listen to our needs, brought something to the relationship, a great person, someone who believes in you, someone who sees you for a person you are, not just a sex object or a project or a person he can manipulate or controlled. The wrong person may come in different races, age, shapes and sizes. I don't think there's anything wrong with two people that care with each other pursuing a real great relationship. There is nothing wrong falling in love to person older than you are. So, forget those critics. Live life to the fullest.

There are lot of people who will understand and accept what you have. Lots of them may judge you by choosing your partner, but that is not important. The important thing is you and your partner who understand each other. It's not about money its all about what you feel, about the things you can see and do its about the beautiful things that you and your partner can do. Forget all the people who's there to bother you and say bad things about you. Be the great person you are.

You can be used, and taken for granted by people of any age by people of any races. It isn't the age. Accept the person for who they are and know the person before you judge them.

I was so blessed i found the person who respect me well and accept me the way i am. I don't care about our age gap. It's a matter of respect and true love and acceptance.

Chicken Pepper Rice (Php. 235.00)

We also got the chance to taste the Molten Milk Chocolate (Php 120.00) Super yummy!!!
