Margie’s Birthday Lunch

By Heart2Heart | Celebrations, Foodie | 6 Comments

One of the reasons I put up Heart2Heart was because I wanted to share with everyone many, many beautiful moments and things in life. There are so many times when I get so excited, I want to tell everyone about the wonderful event I attended or describe the delicious meal I had….and if only I could bring everyone to join and partake of these wonderful moments.. I WOULD! So, thanks to Heart2Heart for helping me vent out my excitement! 🙂 by letting me share them with not only family and friends but to many others who may appreciate them like I do

My friend Margie

invited me over for lunch in her lovely home.

She told me she had asked 20 of her girlfriends over to celebrate her birthday….Whew! I am so honored and lucky to have made the cut! 🙂 Thank you Margie for inviting me and for making me a part of your special day!

I enjoy Margie because she always makes me laugh! She was my bootcamp classmate for two years and now we just bump into each other in Rustan’s, food markets, or in the gym.

My best best meals are those that are homemade specially by family and friends. I would choose home cooked meals over restaurant food any day! I truly truly appreciate the gesture of them being proud of their talent and sharing it. Not only the cooking part but the preparation of everything in having a meal in your own home…

Margie not only makes the PAELLA OF THE CENTURY but she cooks many other good dishes as well. For her birthday celebration, she made Thai food and wow! I loved it!! She made everything from scratch (except dessert). Everyone of course was also raving…though many of the ladies already tried Margie’s cooking, they continue to rave and rave about her cooking…

Papaya Salad

Spicy Prawn Soup in Coconut Milk

Pineapple Noodle Salad

Shrimps in Wonton Baskets

Five-spice Spareribs

Thai Spring Rolls

Massaman Beef Curry

and for dessert, Tako

Happy Birthday to a super funny, super crazy and super nice friend!

By Heart2Heart | Today's Quote | 14 Comments

Before the day ends, I would like to boast to everyone that I am very, very, very rich! I cannot even measure how rich I am!!!!

Some viewers of Heart2Heart are expecting me to feature my special day and what I did….however, today I did not take any photos …… yet even if I have nothing to feature, it has been a very, very, very happy birthday for me.

So far, I am high with all the greetings and love from family and friends via text, phone calls, emails, and greetings from facebook. I am grateful to have had visited my Lola, eat my favorite frozen yogurt, have lunch ( leftover food from dinner ) with my husband, the love of my life, have a one hour massage which was given to me as a gift by my good friend Brenda and will peacefully spend the weekend in Subic with my family.

Sharing this beautiful article which I hope you will take time out to read. After you read this, you will understand and it will confirm why I am very, very, very rich!!!

Thank you God for all the blessings in my life!
