Do you know how to make chicken adobo?
Of course I do.
But what you really want to ask me is if I am Filipino enough?
Cuz I was born in America.
Though not in California.
then you ask me how did my family end up in Missouri?
and why don’t I speak Tagalog?
Does that make me less Filipino American?
The basic ingredients of adobo: Vinegar, Soy Sauce, Garlic and Pepper
Depending on the region,
Adobo could be prepared with more or less of the same ingredients
and it is still considered adobo.
I want to tell you I have been writing every day
but…I haven’t been.
Maybe it’s because it’s been the busiest time of the year for work
or that I had a lot going on personally.
I just think I lacked any motivation to write
with the little or no time I had left in my days.
Between not knowing what to write and not having time to write
I had my first bout of writer’s block during the 100 days project.
I am sure it won’t be the last.
I’m noticing, becoming more aware
of what keeps me from my writing practice.
So here I am.
at the starting block again.
Ready.
Set.
Write!
