Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up. I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home. She said it was forty years old and already dirty. The saleslady explained it could be cleaned easily with soap and water. Carmina decided to take Mom Violy home and bring the crystal tree decoration with her.

Here in our household we have a fixed menu that consist from Monday to Sunday for two weeks a menu of A and B.
Sometimes when you reach the third week of the month you get tired of eating the same old food from the first week.
When you live in a household where the family have medical issues and need to eat on the healthy side and the fixed menu hasn’t been revised to their health issues what you end up doing. The cook ends up thinking of alternative food that can be cooked for her boss.
Sometimes when you cook something other people are not fond of that dish there comes a time people argue over just on what food was cooked that day instead of thinking how hard the cook had put so much passion on her cooking to taste how it taste.
When you live with a household of people it is hard to get any feedback in return and there are times you lose that inspiration to cook because out of your hard labor of love comes complaints from their mouths.
I’ve been there and done that so I know how the cook feels and it is not a pretty site. You learn from their complaints to make your food taste better by using that tool to change the way the taste should taste by making it over again until you reach that right compliment.
Living in this kind of household is not easy life is complicated as it is but since it is your job to cook we have no choice to please our boss without them we wouldn’t have the right income to feed our family and our daily expenses.
Life is a trial and error just like cooking it comes with a lot of practice in all the dishes we cook.
In the next following post there will be new added recipes that Manang V and I will explore to let you know which ones we have approved to share with you.
