The super typhoon Juan had devastated the country and damaged a lot of crops, trees, properties and also claimed some people’s lives. I was watching in the news a couple of nights ago and I’ve seen how the typhoon had swept away a tricycle. They played it over and over in the tv. Now as the typhoon leaves, another storm is approaching. Oh my gulay! I hope it will make a U turn and not come here. We don’t need another storm. It’s still gloomy and raining here but my nephews went to school now. It’s been 3 days that they didn’t have classes. What I like about this weather is that it’s cooler and we don’t need to turn the AC on. But I don’t know why this weather reminds me of my late li’l sister. I’ve been missing her so much. Gosh, I still can’t believe she’s gone now. Before I go to bed at night I remember her, when I woke up in the middle of the night I think of her and when I wake up in the morning she’s still in my mind. Too many memories to remember and I haven’t recovered yet from losing her.

It’s raining this morning when I woke up. This is now the effect of the super typhoon that’s been in the news the past few days. They said it’s expected to landfall in the northern part of the country this afternoon. I just hope and pray it will not be that bad so the people there will not be greatly affected. My two nephews next door didn’t go to school. They said it’s signal #2 here in our town. It’s so gloomy outside and it feels good to sleep all day. Hubby is cooking pancakes right now in the kitchen for our breakfast while I’m here blogging. Hubby’s pancakes are the best. He cooks better pancakes than me. Love it

We had been having lots of rain here in Texas lately. For the past few days, it’s been raining and I was so glad because we really needed the rain. My vegetables in my garden had perked up after the rain. In fact I harvested lots of okra lately and also my ampalaya have more leaves now and starting to bear more fruits. I gathered some camote tops and I boiled it, dipped it with patis and vinegar. Also the saluyot that I planted got more leaves so I gathered it and cooked it with the squash flowers, okra and mixed it with fried fish. Yummy! It’s like I’m in the Philippines when I eat these vegetables. I just wish I have some bamboo shoots too. Anyways, I thank God for the rain. It really helped us a lot.
