CHIC TROOPER ^^: Week Post!

Hubby and I were in Kansas City for a marriage retreat last March 4-6. It was to strengthen the relationship and at the same time, enjoy the weekend vacation that the army offered for free (food & hotel). We got there at night, had dinner and started the topics from the book, “Five Love Languages.” Oh and the dinner! Sumptuous!

Caesar's Salad, Chicken Penne and Tiramisu

At last! Hubby got to eat western food for dinner. I was cooking the rest of the week and they were all Filipino foods. I’m not sure if he liked it but he finished the food quickly!

Ginisang Sitaw

Rosemary Chicken and Potatoes

Escabecheng Bangus

We went to mass, and strolled outside Kansas City. The weather was cool so I opted to wear something like spring! ^^

I'm not preggy. Damit lang yan! ^^

It was great outside and the vacation was nice but I missed someone so bad and I wanted to see her quickly!

Porter and Blues

Fast forward and it's the start of Lent. I sacrificed Facebook for my 40days fasting and MEAT. It's really bad because I'm a poultry girl. I like chicken the best. And doing fish for 40 days is a BIG sacrifice already (Sorry Lord God). Here's a picture of a community meal after Friday Lent Station's of the Cross:

ALL FISH ;c

March 12 and it's St. Patrick's Day! All green. I didn't wear one but all the people here in Manhattan did. People are suppose to go to mass and celebrate it at home but alas! It's like fiesta here. People are out partying and getting wasted. Police cars are on alert. It was funny at first with all the crowd and how happy they looked. But if it gets too long [the party], it irritating. Too much noise, drunks on streets, and accidents.
