Best Day Ever

I am using the Blogger app to write this post. Can I really blog anytime, anywhere? We'll see. :)

Today, inspiration strikes. I want to write about my 27th birthday! I didn't plan to celebrate it, but we did in a very simple way; and it made me happy. Friends and loved ones remembered my birthday!

I guess the ultimate reason this year's birthday celebration is special to me is because I didn't expect much of it. I was determined to just let it pass like an ordinary day because I gotta save up for Isha's birthday next week. I started the week wanting to celebrate sooner just to get it over with. As a result; I've spent more money than I originally planned to, on my birthday week. I kept saying, "This will  already be my birthday celebration."






After a series of impulsive spending to celebrate my birthday; the real date of my birth finally arrived. I woke up feeling a bit under the weather knowing that I can no longer celebrate. I was expecting the worst! I decided to just cook adobo to celebrate my birthday for the nth time!


I was sure that my Adobo will already be the highlight of my birthday, but then came birthday greetings on Facebook and on my phone! Bunch and Isha were surprisingly playful that day, too.




At 8:00 PM, my weekly pay arrived. My sister, who stays at a dorm in Manila, went home, too. The want to celebrate came to me again, and I gave in.





My supposed no-birthday-week became a weeklong birthday celebration! Now, go figure why this year's birthday is the best day ever!

Recipe: Sinigang Na Buto-Buto ng Baka

A few days ago, we went to SM Marilao Hypermarket to buy chicken and cook Tinolang Manok. Everything had been planned for lunch, but when we saw the lot of Buto-Buto ng Baka on sale; we decided to give it a try and cook Sinigang  na Baka.  Sinigang is a favorite in our family (in many Filipino families, actually). My Nanay cooks the best Sinigang na Baboy and Baka. For Sinigang na Baka; she buys from her suki in Meycauayan Market, where she only pays for the beef strips and gets its fat free of charge. Her Sinigang is tasty and sinfully delicious; we're like in Tokyo Tokyo whenever it is our ulam (Unli rice!) My Sinigang na Buto-Buto ng Baka is no match compared to her's, but it turned out very good, too. Buto-Buto is flavorful and is perfect match to my Sinigang's thick sour soup. I'm proud to have cooked it a couple times and to have succeeded each time (which is not always the case, believe me!). Below are the ingredients and recipe for Sinigang na Buto-Bu...

#TheReturnOfTheComeback

Korni talaga ako, but my YouTube dream is forcing me to create catchy captions. Haha! Your resident WAHM is back to blog here and vlog on my YouTube channel (Relaxed Wahmmy). Yes, I am not yet done exhausting EVERY opportunity to earn a living from home; only this time, what I seek is passive income from my passion projects. Tall order? Not really. I know from experience that it is doable. In fact, I've already made one of my heart's deepest desires come true in the last few months: I grew my freelance agency Happy Freelancing— yay!
