Dear Tired Mom,

by Gilian, in category Dear People, Reflections, Thoughts, Women, Words

This is how busy February has been especially in the morning. All these tasks are happening at the same time; online class for my youngest, finishing orders, studying, snacks, and more. Afternoon has a different story of its own. New Mom When I first became a mom, I was overwhelmed with the tasks a mom… Read More

Family Game Night

by Gilian, in category Family, Thoughts, Women

While we were playing, I was reminded of how kids learn better when playing because they are more relaxed and not under pressure.

Sitting Beside The Master

by Gilian, in category Journal, Thoughts, Words

When the pandemic started, schools had to adjust to different set-ups for classroom. Some still cater face-to-face for those students whose parents are both working, and others who choose to stay at home can attend virtually. For our sons, we chose the virtual classes. My youngest son is 3 and is turning 4 tomorrow. I… Read More

Planting with Kids

by Gilian, in category Family, Reflections

“Why don’t you just buy vegetables? It is cheaper and it won’t take too much of your time.” I do buy veggies, but this why we plant:😅 “It has been four days and my seed has not grown yet!” My second son said in frustration and hopelessness. “Well, when you sow something, it will grow,… Read More

Easy Chicken Katsu Recipe (Tori Katsu) Coated with Cornflakes

by Gilian, in category Food, Recipes
How To Make Chicken Katsu

This Chicken Katsu recipe or Tori Katsu is always one of my go-to when I’m in a Japanese restaurant. I like its fried, crispy, a little salty taste, plus, the dip which is usually a teriyaki sauce or something close to that. Lately, I’ve been craving for it but I lack one ingredient which is… Read More

Life, Books, and Blogging

by Gilian, in category Blogging, Family, Thoughts

Blogging The main reason why I haven’t been blogging in the last quarter of 2019 was because of technical issues I have been encountering on my website. When WordPress mobile updated 4-5 months ago, I started having a hard time uploading blog posts from my phone. There would always be an error when uploading until… Read More

Life |Summer Morning Routine

by Gilian, in category Family, Women

The routine in our house changes from time. It all depends on the major activities happening in the day or that season. This post was written when the kids were on vacation so this routine is for Summer (or when kids are on vacation). I’ll try to post another one for school time routine. I… Read More

The Happy Memory Pod

by Gilian, in category Creative Writing, Family, Thoughts, Women

While preparing to sleep, my second son excitedly stood up and started a very interesting conversation: Migs: I have an idea!!! Daddy, when you and mommy are old, I will invent a tripod with a button. If you press the button, you will see all the happy memories!!! Jacob: I want to order one! Marcus:… Read More

Durrah, Saudi Arabia

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, TRAVEL, Wonders

This is the part of Saudi Arabia that many people outside (and even those inside) Jeddah don’t see. If you are living outside Saudi Arabia, you may think that we just have deserts and mountains here and that there is no snow here. 😁 I was one of those who thought that way until I… Read More

Sewing, Pursuing, and Singing

by Gilian, in category Family, Thoughts

I just sew my second son’s black teddy bear this morning. It has been torn for quite some time now and I thought that maybe delaying to fix it could change his mind and maybe he would agree on buying another one, I wish! 😂 I remember when I was still teaching, students would ask… Read More
