Midlife Crisis
Friend: Dinig ko nandito ka raw last two weeks ago, bakit hindi mo ako tinawagan? Me: Sorry, pero kaya kami napagawi diyan ay dahil sa holy first communion ng pamangkin ko. Kasama ko ang aking buong pamilya kaya hindi ako nagkaroon ng panahon para isa-isahin ko kayong bisitahin. Friend: I was so sad, kong kailan kita kinakailangan saka ka wala...I feel so bad at the moment and I don't know what to do. And the phone conversation went on and on...our topic was mainly about stress, depression and midlife crisis. Mukhang marami ang mga dumaranas nito ngayon. That friend of mine who called me is currently under going the famous life begins at... or ika nga midlife. She asked me for an advise what to do? Ouch!

Dahil iba-iba ang factor nito, merong external at meron ding internal at saka we have different types of personalities.

Sweet Cinnamon Rolls and my Diet
I was so depressed after my birthday party last March. I felt insecured after seeing my old friends still slim and sexy, while I am weighing double to their weight. So, soonest they left...I started having a diet. Diva Jing sent me a copy of her diet plan she got somewhere, this Weight Loss Diet program was developed in conjunction with a grant from the US Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration. My agony started with Day 1, the meal plan was consisted of all kinds of fruits except banana. I survived the first half of the day with ease. Later in the afternoon, I started imagining food while eating apple I dusted with cinnamon. Whoa, the scent of cinnamon reminds me the tasty cinnamon rolls. Crazy as I am, I turned on my pc and started searching for the recipe. Yes I know I was on diet but see, the spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak. So I surrendered and baked this delicious sweet cinnamon rolls instead. Wanna try it?
