Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side.

Feeling Lonely During the Holiday Season

As the holidays start approaching some people feel lonely in their heart when they feel depress about themselves.

Some people cannot get over being alone during the holiday season as they reminisce the life they had before the years has passed by when they did have someone in their life.

Sometimes it takes time to heal the broken heart when someone dear to you is no longer at your side.

It is also hard when you just recently missed your family member who is no longer at your side to celebrate the holidays with you.

All you have our memories that comes back in your mind as you glance at the old pictures you have shared with each other.

Every one deals with this situation when the holiday season comes. Some people are looking forward for the Christmas holiday.

There are some people who don't want to talk about it. They want Christmas just to pass by as if it was just a regular working day.

How does someone deal with the pain in their heart?

The only way to deal with the pain is be surrounded by family and friends who can pick you up when you are feeling down in the dumps. 

It is best to talk about it when you are ready to share those feelings that you can't seem to talk it about at the moment.

To you it feels like it is brand new. To you it feels you are the only one in the world feeling the pain.

In reality you are not alone. There are a lot of people who are feeling the same way.

But, their heart is has broken just like yours. They have memories too and they are looking back on the past.

The past cannot bring those back to life. The memories you have shared is the only good thing you can move on once you are really ready to let go.

Letting go is the hard part in life. You are the only person who can do it. No one can do it for you.

You can cry out loud when you are alone. No one can see all the tears that pass down your eyes.

No one will know the feeling or the hurt you feel during the holiday.

There are some people who hide and can't cope to share the feelings they are feeling.

Those people need a hug and someone to give them a good cheer with a support they can move on when the time is right.

Just think you are never alone. There are a lot of people who love you and are willing to be there during your saddest moment of your life.
