I now know:
a) how to cook rice (1:1!)
b) how to cook sinigang (Tip: Use Knorr Sinigang sa Sili Mix)
c) how to fix the bedsheets with not too many creases (Pull, pull and pull)
d) how to clean a toilet (But I will avoid that task as much as possible and delegate it to the husband)
e) how to cook on a gas range (I’m an electric girl that’s why.)
I rarely had to lift a finger when I lived at my parents’ place, hence my ignorance of housework, no matter how matter basic it is. So these things, no matter how primal even, are big things to me. And I’m mighty proud of myself.
Bring on the wifely duties!
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.
