Hello lovely friends! I didn't realise that I haven't posted for so many days lols. I hope you guys are doing great out there. Just dropping by and sharing our simple lunch :) Mamo baked potatoes, with onions, courgette and carrots. We also had mixed salad fresh from her garden (cucumbers, parsley) sprinkled with olive oil. Yes! You can find the best and tastiest food in your own backyard. I'm also excited to harvest vegetables in the coming weeks :) What was your lunch…

Another year, another blessing for me. Happy birthday to those who are celebrating their birthdays this month. Cheers!!!!

Thank you for the birthday wishes (#gratefulvibes friends) Iam truly blessed. We don't need much, a supportive, loving family and friends is enough. When is your birthday?Comment below :) Keep safe…
"Tutmanik"Cheese bread. We have so many leaks in our garden. Mamo baked this cheese bread the other day. What's inside? It has feta cheese, eggs and leaks. She also baked the half without eggs, cheese or butter for hubby, so we can all enjoy it together. It's always addictive once you have a small bite you won't stop lols. We ate this as a snack and also for breakfast. :) a nice combination for your cuppa tea. How are you all doing today? It's weekend again. Any plans?…
Wuz up lovely friends? Tara na at mamalengke lols. We had a busy weekend. My sister in law came and we celebrated our birthdays together (a few days apart ) Mamo and I cooked summer dishes for lunch.

Yesterday afternoon, we visited our friends who came back from the UK. It was nice seeing them again. We'll invite them for lunch…

Good evening! How you all doing? Everyone is now busy preparing for the winter time. One of our neighbours is stocking up firewood. Whilst we are busy isolating our roof using wool and wooden planks. We are progressing a bit :) (mukhang sauna na haha) Winter can be really hard here up to -20C. It is important to have a good heating system in the house. Like what I've mentioned before, everyone is using different kinds of heating systems here. It's up to you what works, what…
Another hot summer day, we went downtown at 1800 and grabbed pizza. Then we went to Lidl and got some ice cream. It's a bit cooler in the afternoon.

Everyone seems occupied and doing their best. Rimbie is enjoying his summer break, has his own agenda, hanging out with…

I just wanna share these cute kittens. They are Mamo's happiness (She treated them like her own children ) @KrisCastro here are some of them of our kittens :):) Rimbie named them all already and Mamo approved :):) These kittens have a good life, they love to eat, sleep , play and then repeat. They are 1 month old, very active and playful. Their mother Bella, is exhausted sometimes, tsk. It can be hard to be a mom indeed, feeding and attending their needs 24 hours is very…
Good evening lovely friends. Hope you had a good weekend. Who wants to try this homemade bread? Mmmmmm yummy in your tummy lols Now and then, Mamo would bake bread. This bread is better than my pita bread. She's kinda pro when it comes to baking. Next time, I will try to make it, I really want to get the recipe right. It's crunchy on the edges, fluffy and soft. It was a perfect lunch, we combined this with courgette, peppers and salad. You can watch the video here:…
Good evening lovely friends. Another lovely day for us, the temperature is cooling down a bit. I can feel that Autumn is coming :) It's our first time experiencing the Autumn here in BG.

Enjoy each day with your loved ones. Chillax and have fun if you can. Try not to watch news lols hang out on noise…
Howdy lovely people! How are you doin? This morning, hubby and I planned to go to the market to buy watermelon. But then he saw they were discounted online in one of the supermarkets. (15 cents/kilo) I wasn't surprised when he ordered 70 kg. We eat watermelon every day ( for breakfast, lunch and midnight snacks.) Within an hour they delivered them, 17 pieces of watermelons oh la laaaa. They were a bit smaller but they were sweet. We were lucky :):) The season will be over…
Saan ka patutungo? Saan ba ang tamang direksyon? Nasa kaliwa o kanan kaya? Minsan hindi alam, minsan nalilito Tama ba ang desisyong iyong ginawa? Minsan hindi natin alam ang sagot sa mga katanungan Ipagpa Diyos na lamang at siya ang gagabay sa ating buhay. Dahil siya lang ang may alam ng lahat. Was the decision you made right? Sometimes we don't know the answers You just need to let go and let God do it for you He knows everything... Join: Pilipinas channel >…
It's plum day! This morning we went to the market and bought 1 case 17 kg of plums! (30 cents/kilo) The seller allowed us to taste some. She said that these plums were only good for making "rakiya" (brandy) . She undervalued her own product. Oh boy, oh boy. They were the sweetest!! Mamo was delighted to see a bag full of plums. In the afternoon, we gathered in the kitchen, washed, cleaned and removed the seeds. Rimbie helped us as well. We tried to cook half in the pan then…

Good evening lovely friend. This morning we had a nice walk in the park, had pizza, did some groceries and bought some building materials that we need at home.

We picked up the blankets that we ordered for the winter time. When we were in Andalucia, we never had a thick…
