I remember my past birthdays, I wasn’t really preparing any food. Maybe we just go out to eat? But on my birthday, my wife prepared a simple meal. We call this food in the Philippines "Shabu-Shabu". Added a few fresh vegetables and a Lasagna was prepare for my birthday.

The delicious in Shabu-Shabu I like are the mushrooms and Tofu. The soup I didn’t like very much, as the natural flavor of the seafood and of the pork didn’t come out because my wife put too much ginger. She can't be reprimanded because she's quick to sulk.

I don't know when it will happen again because I don't know how long this pandemic will last. I just thank God for the new year he has given me.

My wish on my birthday is that this chaos in the world will end. Especially the War that the Israelis are waging against the Palestinians. Many innocents feel helpless, especially children. May the Lord have mercy on these innocent children.
