Dance, Snacks and Chika

Since Lucas and I came home last July, I have not missed any of my chacha sessions yet, so far. Even with the recent kidnapping incident and other rumors circulating in Cotabato City, they have not dampened mine and my friends weekly exercise enthusiasm. For it is not only the dancing sessions that we look forward to, rather it's the camaraderie of lively friends that we enjoy most.
Anyway, these few weeks, we sweated on a series of chacha line dance. We also added moves from Lady Gaga  "Bad Romance". Hahaha. (Can you ever imagine?) Hahaha!
And for every dancing session, I also create and prepare snacks for my friends. I have tried my hands on:
1. cheese cup cakes
2. chicken arroz caldo
3. bihon guisado
4. longaniza pasta
5. chicken macaroni salad
6. fried meat balls
7. misuako (Maybe embotido or  tuna sandwich for next week.)
I also serve different kind of beverages like:
1. lemon grass tea
2. cinnamon lemon tea
3. huckleberry tea
4. malt tea
5. Chinese green tea
6. earl gray and
7. sodas
My friends also bring fruits such as lanzones and mangosteen etc
Lucas says how can we ever lose weight for we enjoy eating as much right after the exercise. Haha and talking as much too! We like to keep up with the most recent:
1. business latest takeover or scam or bankruptcy
2. showbiz headliners like Kris and James Yap divorce. Would you like to know that more people are sympathetic with James Yap?
3. common friends quirks and maladies. hehe
4. Chinese tv soap opera developments
6. Healthy herbs and remedies
7. Crimes in the city
8. updates of our families and friends
9. etc...etc
We talk and laugh, get scared and frightened, learn something new and get enlightened.We mostly forget about the time until .....goodnight, till next week again, to once more dance, eat and chika. This is but life's simple joy when you're no longer one to fifty one.
