A dessert that I know for sure every Filipino knows how to make in their same or unique procedures. Here’s mine 😀 One night, I have decided to make a movie of something that will show off what I am really fascinated about. Actually, my very intention was just to have a remembrance of the ingredients I used that came all the way from the Philippines and that will remind me of a fact that a mom’s love is incomparable. let me bring you to the recipe itself; Ingredients, Materials, and Procedures were shown except of that coffee solution (a tablespoon of coffee dissolved in a cup of a room temperature water) that is for an added flavor and would bring nice texture on the finished product relatively close to a mocha chiffon cake; Combining the dairy ingredients (All purpose cream and Condensed milk); and the fun technique of scraping the mango’s meat out of it’s peeling. Anyhow, let’s move on justifying the means of a finest sweet from knowing “THE LEGEND OF THE SENTIMENTAL GRAHAM CRACKER” ~ I somewhat considered myself having a light OCPD (Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder) As a proof, for instance, I couldn’t start doing my major activity if I am aware that my stuff isn’t arranged. I like my clothes arranged by color or by class and hang the dresses, coats, blouses etc. with each designated color of hanger for clustering purposes. I am fond of making ‘to dos’ and ‘to bring’ list when traveling and doing my groceries. So what happened was.. during my vacay in the Philippines with family, I listed down the things I would want to buy to bring back here in Thailand. Slightly OCPD because I still managed to ruin what I listed ;D. Couldn’t help it specially when there are amazing deals that will cause you to have a sudden change on your list, that is equal to adjusting your budget by spending the extra money you brought (Funny, but that’s a fact in my case and that I would bet it’s similar to yours ^_^) because as a shopper you might experience “Vertigo of Regret” as you leave the shop because you decided not to buy what’s your conscience told you to buy, for it knows that would help you conserve more money in the future by purchasing your potential demand…. small things that are actually not helping you -_-. That caused me to drop out the other stuff replacing them with other things and bam! missed the main thing on the list (Graham Cracker) that luckily I remembered 2 hours before I departed.
Mom was the one who sent me to the airport and what a wise decision to be very early for checking my baggage in, that another advantage I wanna share. Well, I should observe charges that I will be responsible for because of my obese and diabetic suitcase. Surprisingly, the airline didn’t ask any additional fees for my excess baggage. I suspect must be because I was the first passenger to check in. Going back, since I was an early nightingale, I asked mom the big favor, if she could get me what I have forgotten. Of course, she didn’t resist her only daughter’s wish. However, pessimism has hit me, doubting if mom could make it as traffic would be the big hindrance in reaching even a shallow objective. We didn’t jump to the conclusion, instead considered the hindrance as a false hypothesis. Meanwhile, after realizing what mom has gone through. She made it! I was soooo excited. Pollution, congestion, traffic, danger, mazes were all conquered as mom hand me what was an hour ago a hope in my mind. Bowing to the effort she did. That moment made up the days that I had been away from her. Separation anxiety of a mom to her baby occurred by the time I was about to enter the portal going to the world where I break through challenges and catch life’s lessons.
