Some Holiday Appetizers

Holiday season is just around the corner and as early as this month many Mommies out there are planning out their menu for the coming season. We’re celebrating our holiday on a villa resort where we will be having a camp meeting for three days. We’re having a group menu planning of breakfast, lunch and dinner menu for three days for a group of 80 people. Of course we will also include some holiday appetizers to go with our viands and desserts. Oh I really love menu planning and cooking. I can’t wait for it.

Ruth Is Sick!

I woke up at dawn hearing Ruth’s silent murmur and I thought I was only dreaming. As all my kids sleeps beside me I can easily check what’s troubling them at night. I was surprised when I touched her because she’s so hot and she’s having a dream calling my name. I wake her up and asked what she wants me to do. This daughter of mine has a very strong resistance to sickness compared to her other siblings. She seldom gets sick but when she does you should really ask her about it because she has a tendency not to speak much about it.

I cooked her requested oatmeal immediately and served her a plate of rice with ham and egg. She still eats even when she’s feeling bad and I feel happy about it. Since I can’t take a day off my work because I’m going to finalize and check the payroll I set everything she needs and turned over to my mother her medicine, bought all her requested food and kissed her. She’s a big girl now so she’s ok as long as her granny is with her. Mom massaged her and let her take some rest and sleep the whole morning, I just keep on sending them text messages and just now I called her. She’s feeling a lot better now, thanks to God!

Outer Banks Vacation Rentals

It’s been a tiring week for me finishing some reports and billing. What’s even tiring is my blogging every night which takes me up to 2 in the morning almost four to five times a week. I just can’t even start early evening because when I get home from office works the travel from my work to home takes a lot of my energy and strength. Upon reaching the house I will attend to my kids’ assignment and some essentials, household chores seemed to wait for me the whole day that I feel like it all crumbles on me at night.

Actually to relax myself I watch television shows and when I feel relaxed and comfortable I will start writing on my blogs. I don’t want to write on an exhausted mood, imagine sharing inspirational messages when you don’t feel inspired yourself? That’s difficult. Anyway I’m longing for a vacation where I can rest my mind and body from everyday hassle and stress. I’ve been browsing Outer Banks vacation rentals and wishing I could find the time and money to pamper myself to go to one of the finest beach homes on the outer banks.
