Monday

I bite my tongue when I feel I need to stop the tears from coming.  What do you do?

Due to the recent change around me, well I am not going to write about it in detail on the public blog like this, but I feel like I need to take a really big breath and just hold it for a while. 

That is my Monday. 

So today was that day.  And after deciding to be happier, I made my favorite bread from childhood.
Bread filled with custard cream.  

It doesn't quite taste like I remember but well, of course it tastes better when someone else makes it, right?  I managed to eat 3 of them.  I love custard cream.  Not as rich as the vanilla pudding, but more like England custard cream, light but eggy and slightly sweet.  I love this as a filling for cream puffs, too.  Since I found the recipe to make it in microwave, I don't have to worry about it being lumpy or rough.  I am overeating!

I think next Monday, I will try diving- like this...
or this...
  

Haha!  My baby well, toddler was stuck like that for a little.  I needed to take a pic before he got out!  
And his big brother was stuck like that for about 10 min.  Just kidding... 

Happy Monday everyone.  Oh, it's just about over!

    oh -- and I don't do anything to keep from crying. I just cry... until I am done crying. Sometimes it takes a LONG time to be done crying. At one point in my life I went for a very long period wherein I felt like crying and DID nearly every day. I think it lasted for about 4 years. Good luck my friend and know that He is near, and of course, I am always here! :)

    Thank you for the comments, my friends!!!
    Kanaboke- you do the same thing! Maybe many people do-I don't know. I never asked. Banzai for shu cream!!!

    Emma- Cheers to custard! Yes, we are up for the GNO soon because it's about time we get updates from you ;) Maybe Kanaboke will come out again soon! You know, that used to be my motto- to cry whenever and wherever I need to. It's never good to hold back. But I have learned to bite my tongue. I know crying is good for us especially woman at times because it helps us vent. But I am sorry you had to cry for a long time like that Emma. I hope those days are OVER!!! So, where's your cel phone number again? ;)

    Cathy- Thank you! The kids can be so silly sometimes, don't you think? About the recipe, it's all written in Japanese so I would need to teach you how to read Japanese first. Hehe.
