the boys are still at city mall's internet/gaming cafe, while the rest of us are already here at home due to an emergency by dad's which resulted in him not being able to buy some clothes nor the rest of us to stroll around.
this christmas, we were not able to give our homemade cards to our parents. it was partly due to the fact that karen and i took charge of preparing our fare for noche buena. karen is usually the first one to start making a card, and since she was not able to do it, nobody started it up. anyhow, i think it's okay since we were the ones who prepared the crema de fruta (which still remains harder than the ones i get to eat which other people prepared), ham, sparkling salad (which was originally gulaman+pineapple+nata de coco, so we added sago and corn kernels), and chicken spaghetti a la creme. the spaghetti tasted good, except for the fact that there was a smaller amount of chicken than i expected. it's a good thing really, considering the fact that i do not really cook nor stay in the kitchen at all except to cook rice or clean up dishes. this spaghetti had a number of ingredients, including bacon, beer and all-purpose cream.
our christmas tree has also gotten smaller, since our bigger one is all but bereft of its leaves. there are also no more gifts under the tree. we've received our presents earlier, through trips to the mall.
so well, this is our christmas. a few changes. at least i'm enjoying staying here at home. i've sent my greetings to everyone i know in my mobile's phone book. i got at least a week more before i go back to up.
