Random Thoughts on a Friday

by

My cute niece Isabella. Adorable!

I had an entry last month about missing hanging out with my girlfriends. I guess God heard me, because a couple of days after that entry, I got together with some close friends from college. In spite of our busy schedules, we managed to get together and do a really girly thing… we saw Dirty Dancing 2 (Havana Nights). Heehee. A couple of weeks after that, I hung out with my other group of girlfriends from my old ad agency. We wined, dined and behaved like very good bad girls. Yesterday, I had a great lunch with a friend I met online way back in ’98. We meet at least once a year (not counting chance encounters). It’s been great catching up with friends and forming pacts to have lunch again in the next month, in the next year. This weekend, even though I know the trip is gonna tire me, I’m going to visit the group of girlfriends closest to my heart — my Mom and my two younger sisters. I can’t wait. Though we keep in touch through text messaging and many phone calls, it’s still a big difference when you’re actually hanging out with them of course. I miss them.

Daddy sent me a text message out of the blue last night: “How r u toni, i luv u.” Awww. I love my Dad.

I’ve gotten hooked on Jollibee’s Sausage Sandwich (with Egg). Bad, bad girl. I’ve eaten it for 2 breakfasts in a row. I better not make it three. I don’t want to put on extra weight.

TGIF! I can’t wait for this day to be over. I just want to hang out with H and then visit my family.

And here’s today’s tip: Set your ref at 5 degrees Celsius. This is when bacteria sleeps. Higher than that can cause bacteria to wake up and procreate. But from experience: I set our ref at 5 degrees Celsius as soon as I got back from our cooking workshop. After a couple of hours, my bananas froze. Ho-hum. Instant banana popsicles with sleeping bacteria. Doesn’t sound too bad at all.

Note, 2:02 PM: My aunt just emailed me: hi toni girl.. when your bananas freeze just put one in a blender, add a cup of non-fat or low fat milk (depends on the size of the banana) for a healthy smoothie. i freeze my ripe bananas on purpose. Now why didn’t I think of that?
