oh hi!
I've dabbled with starting a blog for the longest time. Why did I wait until now to start? Fear. Uncertainty. I was so preoccupied with the idea that no one would care about it, that I was too shy, that it was just a phase I was going through, that it would make my mental health worse, or that I wasn't important enough to do it. But you know what? I've done so much soul-searching/personal development over the years & I know I'm ready to do this. I've learned that I really want to share my life experiences & passions with the world. I am important enough to start my own blog. I'm not everyone's cup of tea, & that's totally fine by me. My 2 self (more on that in a future post), is past the point of needing to be accepted by all or please everyone.
It might seem like the content on this blog is all over the place. There's just so much that I want to share: food, travel (I was traveling so much before the pandemic), skincare, plants/gardening, finance, & books, just to touch on a few.
I originally wanted to start a food blog. I have ALWAYS loved being in the kitchen. When I was younger, hanging out in the kitchen while my mom cooked was one of my favorite things to do! The process of making your own food looked so fun & you can eat while doing it too. Not to mention, being Filipino, food is at the heart of our culture. If you know any Filipinos, then you know what I mean. You couldn't step foot in a house without being offered food several times within minutes of being there. But I digress.
As a kid, I was just infatuated with cooking. I remember going to the library & renting cooking videos on VHS & reading cookbooks (fun fact: I still LOVE reading cookbooks). Then I discovered Food Network & oh my gosh, let me tell you... Iron Chef America was my jam! Iron Chef Morimoto will always be my favorite. He is so innovative in how he prepares & plates his food. One day, I'll eat at his restaurant. I almost went when I was in Maui, but they were fully booked!
See, I keep going on tangents. Well anyways, the main point is I really love food & cooking. You could say it was the first thing I ever became passionate about.
Now, I have so many other interests in addition to food. So welcome my friend! I promise I won't always be this scrambled in a blog post!
