I’m pretty beat. A great day with my mom & baby but it’s exhausting. What does it mean when a good day is utterly tiring? What of bad days?
We fuel up at Smile cafe on Taraval. Many people have the same idea. The Tuesday special, hai nam chicken rice is delicious. The rice is perfect & comforting.
My dish, seafood bibimbap, is tasty too. I like the crunchy rice at the bottom of the stone pot.
The crispy rice reminds me of my Popo, whom I think of often. I sense she still watches over us. She visits me in dreams often too. We miss & love you, grandma.
Our table is kind of a mess. It’s wonderful. So much food. We celebrate, connect & nourish our bodies.
For dessert, we have drinks, jello & a coconut noodle mango sago dish.
Something about sweet noodles. Who doesn’t like noodles? Baby helps out & polishes off a waffle, rice & soup.
We pick out a little outfit for this weekend’s wedding. Congrats Ly & Ricky! We’re excited to celebrate with you. Since I’m quite drained, I’ve decided that I need to give more. If I’m not getting enough (be it sleep or what have you), I have to allow rest & to give more when I can.
Expecting less also helps with overall happiness & joy. It’s not a bad thing. Rest now.
