🌿 A Record of Happiness from Our Garden Home: From a Peaceful Dawn to a Smile at the Stove 🏡

25 days ago

Hello, my lovely friends! 🙏🏻

Today I woke up feeling especially fulfilled because last night I had the opportunity to spend the night at our own garden home. The atmosphere at night was so peaceful that I could hear the breathing of nature. The air was so cool and comfortable that I didn't want to get out of bed.
But a mother's duties come first. As soon as the first rays of sunlight appeared, I hurried my daughter back to our house near the temple to prepare for school. This morning, I cooked a simple meal: fragrant fried rice with eggs, served with a warm cup of Ovaltine. Seeing my daughter eat her fill before going to school is a small joy that recharges a mother's energy the most.

After dropping off my little ones, I wasted no time and drove back to the farm because there were more little members waiting for my love – the ducks, chickens, geese, and fish in the pond. As soon as I walked in carrying a bucket of food, they greeted me with quacking and came towards me happily. Seeing them eat their fill and sleep soundly was so heartwarming and peaceful. And today I even got a gift – seven fresh duck and chicken eggs!

While exploring the garden, my eyes were drawn to the bougainvillea planted near the entrance. It's the dry season now, so the colorful bougainvillea are in full bloom, basking in the sunlight. I couldn't resist taking some beautiful photos to share with my friends. And before leaving the garden, I didn't forget to harvest a large bunch of ripe bananas to sell at my shop, a little extra income from my own hard work.

Upon returning home near the temple, before opening my beverage shop, I knew I needed to eat first thing in the morning. Today, I prepared a hearty lunch: a spicy pork curry, stir-fried bean sprouts with eggs to balance the spiciness, and of course, my favorite chili paste, a gift from my relatives (especially P'Porn). These small acts of kindness make this meal more delicious and heartwarming than any other. My husband and I happily ate together before heading off to attend to our four-legged and winged companions: our parrot, a Sulcata tortoise, and the skinny stray cat that recently arrived. I couldn't help but feel sorry for it and made sure to feed it properly, just like everyone else.

Now that the back-end tasks are complete, it's time to officially open the beverage shop! Today, there were a few customers, enough to make me happy. As a shopkeeper, just seeing people happy while enjoying my drinks makes all the tiredness disappear.

That's all for my story for today. Thank you so much to everyone who has followed and supported me. I'll have more good stories to update tomorrow, so please stay tuned! Thank you so much! 🌸 🫶🏻🏡❤️🥰🙏🏻
