Thanksgiving this year was a bit different than any other years. I'm hosting it at our lovely crib which we usually don't. But I love it and making me wanna do more party at our place eventhou it's a bit small. Not everyone get to see our lovely home anyways and it's a good excuse to come and see it.
So, I never cook for a party before because I'm always think that my food don't taste good and they won't like it. I take it a challenge this time and I'm glad everything went well. The menu for dinner was: Turkey of course, Curry from my friend, Yatin, Dumpling from Michelle, Calvin childhood friend from Guam, Deviled eggs (really good! with sake & wasabi on it), French green beans, Crabs which cooked by Calvin (really GOOD) and my malaysian Butter Prawns ( and everyone loves it). We have wines and cheeses as well and etc….. The list never ends…. I prepared way too much food for party of seven. Thought it's better to have more than not enough for everyone. We all well behave and none of us actually drunk which is good.
We ended up with karaoke. I had so much fun this year and actually looking forward for next year which I usually done. I always gets depressed during this time around because I had no one here and it does make me lonely and sad. Sometimes I wonder, why am I making this decision on moving over here and expect live will be the same.
Do you wish you were a kid again?? I do!! Stress free and nothing to worry about but to look forward for the next day. Everyday is a happy day! Same goes to my pet. Always seem to be enjoying the life and nothing to worry besides when we're gone for vacation. All they ever care is food! That's all matter. Even living in the box is okay with them as long as you provide food…..
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!
I'm still awake at 2:50am and busy preparing for a big feast at home. I'm so excited about the whole thing and it's my first time actually hosting it. Well, I'm just take a break for awhile and thinking just to drop some update on my entry to keep my blog alive. Finally gets to feel how my mom and grandma always busy; one day before Chinese New Year. It make me realized how much I'm not appreciated before and not offering any help but sleep tight. I really Thankful for a wonderful women in my life. My MOM and my GRANDMA. They really a super women for doing this for more than a decade.
Miss them much!
Already, it's time for me to rest. My body is about to kaput soon!
Today was a good day for me. Taking care of my baby Shiro and she doing just fine. Started to play but still not a normal she. A bit weak but better than yesterday.
As I was washing the bath towels, I decided to do something with my food blog. Something I want to achieve and keep me believing in me that I can do this. I just need motivation. Something I'm going to proud of myself.
And I did a header for my food blog. Well, did not take a long time for me, I think it only took me 30 minutes of my time for today. I'm restless actually; did not sleep well last night. Waking up every hour to check on my baby. I think, I'm a paranoid lady. Thank God I don't have kids yet, I think they going to hate me for being a paranoid mom which I can see myself checking or stalking them all the time. Whatever for now…….
Back to my header. So, I bought 2 pomegranates at the farmer market some times ago for it. And giving myself a try to create my own image. WaaLaa…….
What you think about it? No editing on this photo. Everything is raw. All I did is crop and add the words on it. Do you like it??
I hate being sick!!! These couple weeks, I knew something is not doing well for me. I had minor chest pains several times. And this week, I should have rest and not stressing myself up. I don't know what really matter with me, my brain just won't stop thinking and thinking.
Oh wait! So, I got myself a puzzle to see how long can I finished it. Honestly, I can finish it in 4 days which is scary but I hold it and waited for 2 days to completed it. The whole time i'm doing it, my brain still running like crazy while doing the puzzle and hand worked like a bullet. WOW!! I think I have an amazing brain but don't think I need it this time. And once I'm done with everything, I did a major make over for my place.
I have to keep myself as busy as possible. I'm a bad person when I have too much time thinking non-sense. Not that I hate thinking, but it does reflects my past for the things I had bottle up for many many years. Some said, it's not health for me but that's who i really am. I never learn to open up. It's the hardest thing to do. I don't vain to friends about my relationship or anything. I just keep it safe in me and keep on refilling the bottles when one is full.
I do miss my best friend back home. At least, I'm not shame crying in-front of her and tell her everything. Things do change when two person live in a different places especially across the planet. Hate the time different too. This time, is more like listening to her cry more than mine. I know I don't want her to worries about my part. Times can never turn back and it keep on ticking. Wonder if I can find just one best friend here, It would be great. It's okay, I don't need anyone to understand me. I'm used to be the one that get points all the time especially "BAD THINGS"!!
Right now, I just want to run! Endless run……..
