Birthday and Actifit Report: April 27 2024

Today has been a very very busy day.
Well, actually, I've been quite busy since last night.
Today is the birthday celebration of my nephew and his christening together with my niece.
Last night, I chopped some vegetables and peeled what needed to be peeled together with my sisters and my cousins.
The boys butchered a pig and starting chopping the meat so we will just cook it in the morning.

A basin of sliced cabbaged to be added to the bale of Pancit

Altogether, we prepared and chopped bell pepper and carrots for the sweet and sour pork, cabbage, carrots and beans for the pancit, additional potatoes for the Pork Adobo and potatoes for french fries.
Additionally, we had to chop lots of garlic and onions too.

Early morning today, we had to peel fruits to be added to the fruit salad for dessert. We prepared and chopped melon, wintermelon, apples, pears, grapes and coconut. I also added coconut flavored gelatin and buko pandan gelatin.

After preparing the dessert and putting it in the fridge, I had to prepare the cucumber lemonade drink. I asked my sister to buy big ice chunks from the store because we forgot to freeze water last night for ice.

Later on, I checked on my brother and my cousins who were in charged with cooking the viands.


Sweet and Sour Pork


As always present, Pork Adobo.


We use big pots in cooking food as we are expecting around 100 visitors or more.


I became their assistant as they would ask me to bring some ingredients and condiments to where they were cooking. Sometimes I would assist in mixing the viand. I was like Flo moving around.
I got tired that when the pancit was cooked, I decided to have a snack.

PANCIT. In every birthdays, they say this means long life for the celebrant. It's just pasta and some vegetables with meat and some condiments and slices. When eaten, best with calamansi juice and garlic chili oil, like what I did with this one. 😋

After eating, we had to set up the serving tables and arrange the chairs for the visitors.
We were done cooking and fixing around 11:30.
Just enough time before lunch.

Once everything was set, I decided to freshen up as I was already almost wet with sweat.

This day was really busy.
And as I am writing this, I swear my eyes are almost closing.
I'm just excited to share that I hit more than 5000 steps today. Yeey!
