I think it’s about time I joined in on some Friday fun. So what if it’s really because I can’t come up with original material? That’s what prompts are for, right? (Don’t judge. We all know you’ve had one – or two – of these days before too.)
So here’s the deal, yo.
Every week, Hilary from Feeling Beachie lists 4 statements with blanks to fill in on your own blogs. This week’s co-host, Leslie at Time Out For Mom, came up with the last two statements. Help us spread the word about this hop…. So, please tweet, FaceBook share, and add the linky to your post…
1. I love to buy clothes but I hate to do laundry. Maybe I ought to make a vow to not buy any new clothes when there’s a pile of laundry at home? Maybe.
2. Free Air Conditioning makes a day better. The library, the mall, Target, my parents’ house…you get the idea. And yes, there’s none in mi casa.
3. They Didn’t Think I Could cook, But I Did. Rather, I do. (Almost) everyday, I feed my family with my gourmet inspired dishes. They don’t always come out looking like the picture, but at least they’re (usually) edible!
4. Warning: I’m a hugger! Blame it on my friendly, hospitable, trust-everyone, happy-go-lucky Filipino nature. C’mon. I bet every Filipino you’ve met has hugged you at least once – if not right after the first time you’ve met. Am I right? Of course I’m right. (Why did you have to think about that last question?)
YOUR TURN!

Oh my, no air conditioning? I really don’t think I would be able to handle that. I do keep our air high when my husband is not home, but he turns it down as soon as he walks in the door. Especially if he is wearing his uniform.
I am so not a hugger. Blame it on my no hugging family. I have to really know you to hug you. I would rather get a kiss on the cheek than a hug. Weird huh?

That is wierd. A kiss is okay, but not a hug? Never heard of such a thing! But hey, whatever works for you, eh? Are you French? Or British? Don’t they do that cheek-kissing thing? I’ve always thought that’s cool. I do that too – but only with family, relatives, and friends who I can almost call family.
I don’t like doing laundry either!
Have a great weekend!

Hasn’t someone invented a robot launderer maid thingy yet? Oh. And have a great weekend too!
I loathe doing laundry!!

It probably wouldn’t be so bad if I had, say…a big, dedicated laundry room – instead of the space right before my garage door. Know what I mean?

I knew you’d be a hugger!
I’m such a strange cook…..one day I will decide to do this elaborate marinated pork tenderloin stir fry with bell peppers, snow peas and sliced almonds on jasmine rice. The next night……peanut butter and banana tortilla roll ups and yogourt. It’s like I need a day of recovery from any gourmet adventures. ha

You know, I totally do the same thing. Peanut butter and Nutella/Jam sandwiches for dinner are not strangers here! If we were neighbors, we could have totally taken turns cooking gourmet dishes, you know? *sigh* When are you moving to Cali???

I loved this meme. So easy and interesting!
Maybe you need to host more parties and blow people away with your cooking? That’ll teach them!

I agree!!!
Hi, Janice, finally checking back in. I’m not working at the moment, and am actively job searching, so kinda not in touch (being a computer professional, I don’t go home and turn on my computer!), I’m so lucky, my wife does the laundry, and likes it and is good at it. Neither of us buys much in clothes, in fact, some of my slacks are 20 years old. I have t-shirts that are almost 20 years old. We’re also very lucky that we seldom need our A/C. We live next to a bay, and when it gets hot inland, the cool air gets sucked through the bay, and we get natural A/C. We use our A/C about 5 days a year, maybe 10, and only for the hot afternoon hours…I suspect you’re in SoCal, so you need it more…Another point of being blessed, my wife is not the cook of the house, I am. I spent my pre-military years as a restaurant manager, and worked in Food Service in the military. So I spend a lot of time messing up the kitchen and providing great meals. My wife is a great sinegang cook, along with adobo and beef steak. I am not a natural hugger, but I love to hug when someone else wants to.
Well, I do have a second interview set up very soon, so keep me in your prayers… I’ll blog about it shortly, anyway.
Welcome back! Wow. You definitely have alot to be thankful about. Come to think of it, I probably do too. I just have to quit whining, suck it up, and look for all the good things God does give me – everyday!
That is so cool that you’re sort of a bonafide chef! I think you and my husband would get along because he likes to cook too. I daresay that he might actually be better than me when it comes to culinary skills!
Ahh….job interviews…..those were the days….7 years have passed since I had an interview….
Yes, I will definitely pray for you, that God show you the right place to be to do his will. (((hugs)))
