30 Days of Thanks... My cooking abilities...

 

This is one of my plates... I started cooking when I was a little kid. I believe that I was around the age of 8.. See living with my mother and my grandmother.. My grandmother had real bad epilepsy.. She burned her hand to the bone one day and vowed never to get neat the stove anymore. Then if it was left up to my mom, we would ate bacon and eggs and fried chicken the rest of our lives.. I think that was the only thing she knew how to cook. 

My auntie and my cousin ann, were EXCELLENT cooks.. I learned from them.  Then when I got older.. I just started doing everything myself. 

I started collecting recipes and trying them out.. Then later on in life i started making up my own. 

Cooking makes me happy.. It is something that I know I am good at. 

One day I want to be able to start my own business.. I am no chef, yet I am a COOK.. 

I thank God everyday for this blessing...

30 Days of Thanks... Day 4 through 8...

I am sorry that I wasn't able to post other days.. I have been under the weather and you know Life.. It can get busy sometimes.. I don't even really have a main picture for this one.. It is a little bit of everything...

1st off I am THANKFUL for everything God has blessed me wit thus far.. I don't know what I would do without faith in him. He seems to always pull through when I think life has failed me.

I am thankful my job, even though it has been times I can't believe that I am still there. I get crapped on at times but I am thankful that I have been there long enough that I finally feel like I am appreciated

I am also thankful for my Real Friends... Not to confuse with my associates.. . The ones that know my everyday life is always a test.. The ones that know my struggle with my anxieties and issues with my mom. I can't trust everyone and I do have a hard time doing so. So those who are extremely close to me.. I am so thankful for them.

Then the last thing that I am most thankful for is my ability to still love with all the times love has totally knocked, slapped, and burned me.. I am still able to see that ONE DAY I will have that everlasting and that love that is perfect for me..

Day 3: Sense of Humor...

Some often say I am so silly. I guess I can say I agree with them..
 I love to laugh.. I love my sense of humor.. I am thankful for being that way.. Laughter is also my weakness.. I tend to always fall in love with someone who make me laugh.. You have to laugh, life without laughter is a boring and dull life..

So I say laugh and be happy...

Day 2: Family...

They are nuts and don't have a lick of sense..

I do Love them so.

My mom can work my nerves, make me laugh, have my back at any giving time.

It's mostly us at this moment. My auntie and uncles comes around some of the time.

I am closer to my moms side just cause I have always been around them.

My dad family is about bigger than my mom's. It's hard to keep up with them.

Family are your support system. 

When I hear folks saying that they don't have any family, it saddens me. 

I am glad we all stick together, even when we disagree with one another..

I am so Thankful for FAMILY

1st Day of Thanks.... My Life and What comes along with it..

I am Thankful for Life.. It has been a up and down one from the beginning. I just glad God sees it fit to keep me here. It give me a chance to try a do right.
Everyday is a new day to do something. Everyday is another day to be something. I have went through some trials and I have been through some of the roughest days imaginable. I still came out to be somewhat ok.. LOL
I learn that LIFE is what you make of it. Even though some days I feel like I don't want to get out of bed, I still push myself.
No matter what struggle may come I am not going to let that deter me. I will one day find the peace and happiness I feel is granted to me.. Until then I am going to keep living, loving, and laughing.. Life is a given. To live is a blessing..

Starting November 1st..
