My Mother-in-law Garden! 2015

My Mother-in-law made the best jalapeno pepper stuffed ever. is one of our favorite appetizer all any occassion or event's. there's a tons of recipes online but, if i choose i would  have my mother-in-law recipes version of jalapeno stuffed. it so tasty and delicious, simple to make. of course, jalapeno is really fresh from her garden this year!. 

Another fresh waterlecious fruits. im really proud to tell the world my 81 years old Mother-in-law who been enjoying gardening. she planted it by the garage and close by the road. i know, many people drove and pass by, might some of them seeing it or some of them not notice.

I'm first person saw big watermelon one day   i tell my husband and mother-in-law about it and were started to counting them with the small. were more proud seeing  tiny watermelon.

My husband enjoyed his first pick watermelon from his mom garden. He was come home from work and said, I had picked watermelon! Were all thought watermelon looks ready to picked because they look big outside but inside of watermelon was not quite develop (still not all turning red).

We saw 3 more watermelon is getting so big. We decide to wait another week to picked since were disappoint from first one. But were all learned and see things awesome. 2 weeks after, I asked my mother-in-law if I can pick watermelon and she said, (when ever you want honey). I let my husband to pick in 2^nd time but he said it’s your turn. I did pick the smallest one compare to another watermelon because I know, this is the first watermelon I saw growing.

 Finally we did eat 3 watermelons from the garden. There’s more tiny one but I did clean them up because were know there is no time to growing. It’s getting colder outside.

I been harvests my mother-in-law okra while she’s 3 days gone to Virginia Beach. As in I harvest a lot everyday in summer. My mother-in-law got an okra plants from her Granddaughter Amy. She was planting during spring and I remember, the okra plant was little then were also gone about a month to visiting my family in Philippines. I was said; one month is was big change because it’s taller and more vegetable.

Cleaning Day!

Lots of laundries, bunch of trash scatter everywhere at the floor. I haven’t finish cleaning about 3 weeks in a row already because I was busy practiced dance, work and more activities going on of my daughter and me. So, I have to stop going party or else the house getting look ugly. At this fast couple weeks my daughter getting socialist! I mean she found few friends in our neighborhood that she can play with! They invite my daughter several time to sleep over during weekends. And of course, my husband and I agreed (it’s good for her to get along to anyone) I tried to organize and look neat our bedroom but there’s a times we can’t finish work in one day.

I like looking folding pants or clothes and organize them in one place. I tried to tech my 9 years old daughter how they fold things especially her own stuff in closet but she have her own version. So, I let her do it the way she wanted! She is good helper as long you tell her.

September Shopping!

          Here’s the belated birthday gift from my beautiful stepdaughter.  I’m blissful receiving gift but my whole point! I am bliss because she still remembers me. My friend Mary jean had a baby shower party last august. Oh! I never thought to wont from guessing her belly (38 inches). I got a price from that right number. Must be Raquel and I are lucky day. 

          I bought few items from Tuesday morning store. The legwarmer is one thing that I looking for my 1970’s dance but, unfortunately I ended up buying more things that I can use. The items that I had are legwarmer, 3 pair sock, bottle, gift bag, and chocolate squares.

          The walmart bag is from recycle but that bag items inside are from marva consignment store, I don’t know if that make any sense. The first store we went shop are Kmart because it was to early after 8 o’clock in the morning which is all consignment store are still close. I got 1 red top, 2 legging for my daughter, and 4 clothes for baby gift I bought this for coming up baby shower party. Then I bought a wet and wild lipstick for me. After shopping from Kmart we went back to marva consignment store and we found pants, shirt and flowers for Hawaiian dance then, 2^nd consignment is Goodwill and found shirt. Pants and teddy bear toys. I purposely shopping for fall and winter clothes for my daughter and of course, unbelievable she grown a lot. She is 9 years old wearing XL size now.

          I finally found the cheap badminton from T.J Maxx store. It is a $7:99 compare to $ 12:00 price. Its only temporary toys when ever we feel to play than borrowing.

i was bought my daugther leggings and shirt. i had also couples clothes for baby girl for baby shower. 

Labor Day food.

A bunch of food in holiday and event’s! My mother-in-law cooked this delicious food from the Labor Day. She cooked fried onion, fried okra. Okra is fresh from my mother-in-law own garden. This year been well having okra and harvest every other day. It’s really such a blessing to us.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day!

back to normal life

Here’s we are! Our first week to go back to works, school, and daily life thanks God, is weekend again. It was really tough week for both of us from long flight and straggling also from jetlag. Still won’t go away that fast. It’s feeling like torturing us this stress, too.

My husband feels worst than us. He was sick and 6 days hospital during our vacation in Philippines. Okay! I am not going through details of his privacy, that’s the one main reason. He had hard time to recovering. But, right away he got back from vacation he went seat and he did start working a lot of paper works, medical check up, and two days whole day in meeting that worst than anything’s else.

Daughter and I still made it to buy a school supply. She did do her job at home, like put dishes to the cabinet, she had two math homework in the first week of school. She helped me picked my mother-in-law okra from her garden. My mother-in-law was went to LA for her best friend funeral, is really sad.

I actually receive my tech parking tag I won’t worry getting ticket. My husband was purchase it for me in online. Husband and I went to lunch dinner with the school president. She is really sweet and nice to everyone.  

The birthday flowers and welcome back gift so, were back to normal routine life because vacation is over…

We're Back From Vacation.

         Kumusta Everyone! Excuse me for the lack of posts. To be honest, I have few posts that I left in my blog before I went my travel but it was an automatic. So, I won’t worried and thinking posting when where in the Philippines the connection of internet is really slow I don’t trust to download any things there and I don’t have patient dealing with hassle connection because I choose to spent my time with family and not the slow internet connection. I can even open my instagram and face book in couple days there and it was okay for me. Since, I did post automatic in my blog I am thankful that we can do in advance in blog sites. I’m currently backed in state from vacation in Philippines. I have many stories to shared to all of you guys about from travel but in the few night, I was still fully awake @ 5:50 am! Now, I haven’t good sleep. In the Philippines and State it’s 12 hours different. I know everyone knows about this or you can go search goggle if what time in Philippines and Arkansas State.  It is morning here in Arkansas state 5:52 am and Philippines is night 6:52 Pm. I am in my zombie mood from days now and I am dealing with the worst jetlag ever.  I don’t know if I can make it to work this week but maybe, I call in sick since my jet lag and I got a cold from flight. We also need to go dental appointment for my daughter, so lot’s going on after the vacation.

More Flowers

I had loved taking picture to any natural beauty. My mother-in-law does planting a lot of flowers since we move this big house. I did plant few but most of them perennials which is I plant once then they come back every year. So, I don’t plant over and over. My mother-in-law is one of her hobby and favorite is planting and seeing the beauties of plants. They look worth it because they are so beautiful.
