Simplicity

We had an awesome dinner at my Nana benita's place. Actually they are currently living in my other aunt's property as their house is being built.

Kuya Randy, my cousin cooked ginisang kangkong and kalabasa. It doesn't have any meat or fish in it. just plain vegetables. I still of course had lil amount of rice and lots of veggies and fried tilapia.

I was wondering how my cousin made it taste as if it has meat/fish in it. I supposed it's because of the freshness of the veggies and the natural sweetness of kalabasa. I must admit it was a very healthy dinner.

It was fun to be back in the ancestral house of my grandparents. I got to see my nephews/nieces and of course my loving cousins.

My cousin also prepared fresh harvested mangoes. What else could I ask for? Nadah! I was contented and really full. Then a text from another cousin came in requesting us to go back to their place.

And so we left my aunt's place after dinner. Yes eat and go. hehe.. That's what we do all the time. As we need to go to different houses so we have to have that kind of visitation. We then headed to my other cousin's house, ka Emmie's house. We literally dropped by just to get the Butchi that she got for us. Two boxes haha and ate 'em while heading home. Delicious as always, freshly cooked and soft and chewy.

It's always fun seeing relatives, which happens once in a blue moon. I wish my other cousin would visit us in Muntinlupa.

I also wish that my uncle would end the war between his children and my other cousins.

I wish we'll have reunion. de la cruz Reunion.
