It's true when they said, "Sharing food with loved ones adds a sprinkle of joy and a dash of love, making every bite taste even better." For a long time, I haven't shared food with my loved ones at the same table; that, at least, is what I feel when I share food with people dear to me.
Recently, it has been full of celebrations. Consecutive birthdays, consecutive parties, food trips, sharing joy and laughter, thus, more fun! Birthdays only happen once a year, so we have to spend it meaningfully. And it's even more memorable when spent with loved ones.
If in our last birthday celebration, my eldest brother was present, this time, he was absent, and my second oldest brother was there with his family. I wish we could be complete. There is always missing in the family picture frames.
Love & her naughty daughter, Breiana
The celebrants, Love & John
Following the small feast was karaoke bonding. As mentioned in some of my posts, we, Filipinos love singing, especially at special celebrations and other events. Our karaoke devices at home were assembled and played again after they were kept for a long time following my father's funeral last year.
Little Breiana seems to like singing, too, just like her father. I wish she would inherit her father's beautiful singing voice. She likes singing along with others when the song Always Remember Us This Way by Lady Gaga is played.
The singing continued until night with the disco light effect, adding charm to the setting. My grandmother and sis-in-law were also on the go, wanting to hit 100 perfect scores. I guess everyone wants to hit that score when singing karaoke. Unbeknownst to others, there is a technique to that. How? Well, choose a soft song, then sing the lyrics perfectly. There's a big chance to get higher to perfect scores with that technique, lol. You don't need to sing like a diva, haha.
That's all for today. Happy long weekend here.
Thanks for your time.
