I am kind of busy this week because friends of ours will be visiting for at least a week. The wife was my schoolmate in HS back in my hometown and married one of my hubby's friends. Every year on time of school holiday prior to the last school term they always schedule a visit down in Sydney to see and visit some friends. It is always exciting to seeing them again even if it is just for a short time. Even though we talk from time to time over the phone to keep ourselves updated, but seeing them personally is definitely a different one.
The kids are getting excited now and can't wait any longer. My friend has 3 kids, the eldest is a girl who is about the same age as Dorothy and the second is a twin (boy and girl) who are younger than David by 1 yr. Must be pretty busy though with a handful of kids around to take care of. We are planning our temporary itinerary where we would take them during their visit and one thing for sure a fishing trip with hubby and my friend's hubby is definitely in the list. However, we could not come with them because our boat has only a capacity of 4 adults. Hubby is taking time off from work so he can spend more time with them. For now, I am quite busy planning our meals and what Filipino foods should I cook for my friend while they are here but one thing that i should not miss to prepare is the "inun-unan" because this is her favorite. I just hope I can get fresh fish then. I am pretty busy too doing a general cleaning in the house which I didn't do for ages particularly in our back room as this is the only room that i can offer to them which I think is comfortable enough because it has its own toilet and privacy. Our back room is temporarily a play area for the kids. We are planning to extend the house if we have the resources. How I wish we win lotto but when that gonna be!!!!! (sigh)
I am certainly not spending longer time in my computer for the time being and hope to catch up with each and everyone of you when everything will be back to normal.

hello Ate Eden!
looks like you are really preparing for this big visit. i'm sure it's gonna be fun. it is always great to have good company around especially if it's a long time friend.
when you mentioned about what food to prepare, a particular dish came into my mind. will you prepare me lechon kawali? hehehe! inun-unan sounds good especially if you pour it over white rice then some oil from pork and pinch of salt. eating it by hand makes it complete!!!
fishing trip sounds fun! it will be very nice and i'm sure your hubby and his friends will enjoy it. would've been better if you could go too right? sige lang, save your energy when me and Travis will visit you ha? hehehe!
i hope all is well with you. take care always and God bless!
thank you weng, they are back to their place now and we are missing them. the house is very quite. I know the kids feel the same. I hope we will see them soon this coming summer season.
take care always
hi jacy! you are right, we did have lots of fun indeed. Having them is always a pleasure.
hahaha.. Sorry to decline your request of lechon kawali coz i dont know how to prepare it..lolz.. but i can make roasted pork for you. how is that? and inun unan as "pakapin" ..hehehe
yeah, that would be great if we were able to go with them. Me and my friend just imagining it coz she likes fishing too. We were both raised in a place very close to the sea.
