It Took a Long While...

Yey! Finally! I was able to set-up a blog. It took me quite a while, hehe, partly because:

1- I didn't know how to (for someone who really wanted to do this, I don't know much about techy stuff, and possibly, everything else related to the internet, except for emails, facebook and google search! lol..)

2- I was afraid I'd suck at doing this. I got a little discouraged in actually putting this blog up. I saw some pretty good blogs, and I thought, "Oh, why would people want to read me when they have those other wonderful (and I mean, wonderful) blogs, with their smart layouts, fancy pictures, etc?" But then again, why not?

3- I honestly didn't have a lot of extra time. I never knew being a mother would occupy me 24/7. I have a bigger respect for all homemakers out there. By the way, here's a peek at the little energizer bunny who keeps me occupied :)

Our darling Lucas, now nine months :)


So, why do I want my own blog?

1- I want to be of help, even in a little way, to others here in the Eastern Region (in Saudi Arabia). How? Well, when I was pregnant and had food cravings, even Google cannot give me ideas/information where Jowel (my loving husband) and I could buy eggs benedict, clam chowder, pancit malabon, and many other things I was salivating for. Hence, from hereon, whenever Jowel and I eat at a restaurant, I'll be offering my humble opinion and writing a review of the food we tried. I'd also try my best to sample Arabic and Indian fares (haha, good luck!) and write about them too.

Maybe, just maybe, another preggy lady would one day come across my blog, trying to find out where she could get the best plate of seafood pasta, and she'd learn it from me! Yey! :)

2- I've long wanted to try new recipes for Jowel and make healthy baby food for Lucas. If I cooked them well, I'll be sharing all those recipes here for others to try as well.

3- I secretly wanted to be writer when I was younger, hehe. Had my father allowed it, I would've taken up AB English in university (but then, I realy loved Biology, so no biggie.).

So here goes... Cheers to more future posts! :)
