One thing that I miss before Anika started grade school is not thinking about ulam and snacks.
Kahit sa bahay mga bakla, I rarely think about ano ipapa-luto pagbreakfast, lunch and dinner. My house help is good at that. Siya na mismo ang magkukusa. Kung gusto ko lang mag-arte arte and mag-special special na meals, that is only the time I make pakialam anong lulutuin.
Isa sa pinaka-mahirap gawin is ang mag-isip kung ano uulamin araw araw, akala mo. My Father-in-Law told me that.
When Anika was just in pre-school, I would just buy packed snacks like Oreos, mamon, etc and put them in her “lunch box” together with her tetra-packed juice. Hindi ko na masyado iniisip yan. When we go to the grocery, I let Anika pick ano gusto niyang baunin in the snacks aisle. She doesn’t stay long in school eh. Snacks lang talaga ang pa-baon.
Hindot. Simula nagGrade 1 ang bagets ko, hindi na ako na-tanto kaka-isip anong pwede niyang ulamin and i-baon for snacks and lunch!
Masakit din sa ulo especially for somebody who doesn’t know how to freaking cook!
I seriously do not know how long I will last doing this. Hahahaha! But for the meantime, let’s enjoy the moment while I can still do it, shall we?
