Generous Bottles and Quick Recipes

Three days left before January ends, that was fast. I'm a bit excited for February, except for Valentines it's also my birth month. I really want to experience celebrating my existence. Or much better to be called victory! Because I've won a lot of battles in life. There so many things that we should be proud of.

Two weeks ago the relative of my husband came to visit. We were told to attend the small gathering, but my husband didn't allow us. Good thing my son passed by after his father went to Manila for its work. He was called by their relative and already know the reason why we weren't able to attend. They told my son if you came earlier; not only this you'll have. But also money or Pamasko/Aguinaldo on our dialect.

The image above was taken by my daughter @katsuki29. These are the stuff they brought to each one of my kids. We receive four bottles, inside is a soft towel and sweet treats for the young ones. Hubby's aunt was generous, she message us and told us that she'll wait for us to come. After we receive the gift I messaged her and thank her but I didn't get any replies. I think she's a bit mad, but atleast I got thank her for her generosity to us. We we're also given food. My daughter is really good at taking pictures. You may notice a lot of difference.

While I bought sweet corn and a pack of veggies in vendor passing by. It's a lot more cheap instead of going to the store.

I immediately boil the corns before I went to the school to pick up Ria. So she'll have snack while she waits for the meal to be cooked.

Then all of a sudden she cried, I was slicing the ingredients needed for the veggies. I hurriedly ran to her. She told me she can't bite the corns because of her broken teeth. I pity my baby so I patiently peeled the corns for her.

I noticed that after I peeled the corns my daughter is still eating it. She's sucking the leftovers, she looks cute and I love her so much.

After she felt calm I continue slicing the garlic, onion, tomatoes and dried squid. I washed the veggies and prepare a pan. Put cooking oil and slightly fry the squids, then I saute the garlic, onion and tomatoes. We have cooked anchovies so I put two tablespoons of it. Mixed them all together, then I add the vegetable, 3/4 cup of water and seasoning. Mixed them all together, cover and let it boil for a couple of minutes. Notice that I didn't add any salt. Because of the cooked anchovies, it's already blended with the need taste.

Here's the finished product. It taste so alive, healthy and delicious
