I said I would be writing more...

So here I am, in my own little me time. After my son is asleep, and right before I do assignments for my online classes. I am thankful to be in school, yet again. I like to learn new things, knowledge is power.

Today I wanted to finally use the slow cooker my middle sister gave me for Christmas lol. I have been stalking Filipino beef caldereta recipes via Pinterest and google. And it turned out better than expected. I'm turning out to be Mrs. Domesticated, jk. I am trying to be more "housewife-like", it is a learning process.

I don't know if it's just me - I'm not the perfect organizer, or someone that can bake perfectly from scratch, sew, or have my house sparkling clean. I am me, this is how I was raised. I was raised by my dad, in my pre-teen / teen years, he did not have that womanly touch.

This is a new chapter, and I am learning. I am the jack of all trades, master of none... Yet! Bare with me.

So after the prepping, and hours ( 10 to be exact - 4 hours in highest setting, then 6 hours in low). My oldest sister came over to visit and said it was the bomb! Yay!

I was going to post a recipe, but I mixed different recipes of caldereta of what I found on Pinterest. I basically added liver paste, tomato paste, olive oil, garlic, onions, fresh tomato, green olives, carrots, peas, beef chuck, potatoes, worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. I sautéed the beef in a sauce pan prior with olive oil, garlic, onions, and the veggies - other than the carrots, and potatoes, I did that when I put it all together in the slow cooker.  There it is.

I also finally uploaded some vacation photos. <3












We love the beach. Visualizing the move to over there...
Back to business... Time to grind.

Hello again my friends...

I have not written in awhile, once again. Been a busy bee with my little family ( moving, quitting my old job, school, my son, vacations).

And I also went a new hair color. This little mama decided she needed a change.

Right now, me and my husband are focusing on future goals of ours. Which is to travel, we have this goal in mind. I'm excited, because I am a firm believer of laws of attraction. What you emit out, you attract to you.

When we were strolling along the streets of Coronado, my husband had deja vu. It's interesting how people can get that weird feeling, but it's cool how things happen. ;)

As I hold off of studying at the moment, I'm also looking at Pinterest. I want to start experimenting with my pins, and actually do them. It'll be a trial and error on here lol.


On to the next one...
