A Hot Day to Honor the Heroes of the Past
It's a scorching 34°C while I try to clear my head and type a few words for my blog. I have some time to spare before my next engagement so why not create content. It is a non-working holiday, so workers will get much needed rest and be able to relax, hopefully, in a beach or an indoor pool somewhere. Today's holiday, Araw ng Kagitingan, is indeed a special day as it commemorates the heroism of the Filipino and American soldiers who were forced to walk the 145 kilometer Bataan Death March; where many perished due to dehydration, starvation, and illness. We must remember that the freedoms we enjoy today were bought with the blood, sweat, tears of those who came before us. I know. It's such a cliché, but it did happen. And, we should be grateful to our ancestors for these things.
A Quirky Breakfast
As you can see from this photo below, I had basmati rice, fried eggs, and kimchi for breakfast. Short of saying this was a weird combination. I really liked how it tasted together. Adding a little bit hot sauce added to the already uncomfortable heat index.
Flower Power Summer
It's summer and also flower season. We always have some kind of flower to brighten up the day and the place; and maybe even to cheer up a lonely soul.
Hope Springs Eternal
That was an overly dramatic header, if I have to comment on it myself, but it has been a long time since I've been able to upload content one after the other; it was worth it. I feel good that I was able to do it and I'm happy with the outcome. I hope to upload a few more content in the following days to, maybe, gain some blogging momentum. It has been difficult to start a creative endeavor such as a blog, but I love doing it. It helps that things are cooperating with this goal. So, the tide must be turning in my favor. LOL.
Anyway, I will end here by wishing everyone a happy non-working holiday (at least here in the Philippines). Go out and enjoy or stay at home and rest for the coming days ahead.
Love and peace!

I forgot the date, it's Araw ng Kahitingan and also my late sister's birthday. Skl po, hehe.
The food looks amazing. Haven't tried the masbati rice and kimchi, Im really curious with kimchi thoug.
Uy, masarap ang kimchi with anything fried. Gawa ito ng friend ko na chef so extra special. Hehe. Yung basmati rice naman, sa mga Indian resto mabibili or bili ka ng lulutuin bigas na basmati. Follow mo lang instructions on how to cook. !PIZZA 🍕
Wow!!! Kimchi, the first time I taste kimchi I was like 🥵 because it so spicy and salty but it was good.
Yes, it is good, but you need to be careful if you don't like spicy food. Lucky for me, this was not spicy.
The holiday spent well! A simple yet memorable one. And sarap po ng food😋 parang mapapasamgy ulit tayo neto!🤣. Thank you for sharing @juanvegetarian
