Dear Delilah

This entry is to honor the one who needs to be reminded to keep pushing:

Dear Dee,

I know you have been through allot in the past year & things did not turn out like you would want. But just know that you are a strong Hispanic woman who is optimistic & have genuine values! You are a loyal friend, confidant, & a strong team player. You keep it together with a smile on your face & laugh when it hurts. I know when you're by yourself you cry & ask why you? But, honestly, you are the one person who gets through things & never complains (maybe not in public, but the kids hear your complaints).
You are a very graceful woman. You have managed to do so much in such a short time & have forgiven those who don't deserve it & continue to talk to them as if they did nothing wrong. But, it's who you are, & that is what makes you beautiful, you give @ will & never question or expect anything in return.
As a reminder of all you have done on your own, you carried an almost $3,000 rent for an entire year, you found a more feasible home, you bought yourself a brand new 2011 Nissan Rogue, you have bought your own furniture (& saved by clipping coupons & being thorough /w deal findings), you have a brand new washer & dryer (@ a steal). You continue to attract beautiful people into your life & re-welcomed old friends. Your home continues to be the meeting place for those you love. You have managed to lose weight & incorporate exercise into your life & have been a good role model for all your children. You work hard & are learning how to play hard. I am proud of you & am learning to love you for all that you are including your flaws!

Continue to surround yourself with the people who strengthen you- you will be okay. I also want to thank a close personal friend who was there when I got married & was there during the divorce. I had the opportunity to be there for you & I hope this will strengthen our relationship!

On another note, keep enjoying your food outings & the friends who value & cherish your relationship:

Sunday morning in Chinatown, Manhattan @ The Hop:



Snails Chinese style,


Lobster & crab combo,


Sweet & sour shrimp!
