Ordinary Snapshots: Little Moments in a Simple Day
Not every day is exciting, most of the time it's just the usual activities at home.
Simple routines to keep our lives going.
These are the small moments...
The ordinary day that you can still find little pieces of beauty.

Second Day of Aiden's Fever
Today started with a thermometer to check Aiden's temperature. It's the second day of his fever, and his temperature is still a bit high. What made me concerned is giving him medicine because he refuses to drink. As a parent, moments like these can be a little stressful. I hope he will feel better soon!

Simple Breakfast
Despite the worry, our day still had to go on. For breakfast, we prepared something simple. Fried dried fish, eggplant, and kikiam. We paired it with ketchup, which made everything even more delicious.

Ukoy + Stir-fried Baby Clams
When lunchtime came, I decided to cook ukoy using squash. This one is really enjoyable to make as it is just simple but always turns out tasty. It's crispy and slightly sweet because of the squash. My mother-in-law also shared their ulam. It's a stir-fried baby clams. Have you tasted this before? It tastes really good especially when it's cooked a little spicy. It paired perfectly with our meal and added more flavor to our lunch.

Trip To The Market
Later in the afternoon, we went to the market to buy things we needed for the house. We bought cooking oil, vegetables, canned goods, bread, and other essentials. It was just a simple trip to restock food at home, but it became special because of the beautiful sunset. The sky looked so lovely with its warm colors.

And that's it!
These simple moments make you appreciate the ordinary days as they can still become special.
And for me, these ordinary days are still filled with beautiful moments if we only take time to see them.
Until my next everyday snapshots...
Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸
