Feng, a real-life buddy who is a mommy blogger like me gave me a bunch of tulips. Virtual tulips these may be, I am very much grateful to her for I haven’t gotten a real bunch like this yet.

This is the poem accompanying the virtual tulips. Though the words there do not exactly match how our friendship has blossomed, I am thankful for the opportunity to know these lovely ladies who also got this bunch from Feng.

It’s true I have never seen you
and we have never met,
Never shaken Hands or
even truly hugged and yet!

I know for sure you care for
me by the kindness that you give.
And our keyboards keep us
together doesn’t matter where we live.
So I give you this gift to
put a smile on your face
and to let you know in my
heart you have a special place.

To “The Eating Club” friends: Chateau, Cookie, Feng, Lady Cess, Lynn and Wenchie: Thank you for the wonderful times we have spent, for the laughters and the lessons learned ;) Till the next fun adventure!

Ako din Wenchie, I love flowers but I am too practical to even appreciate those flowers, bigas na lang :D

Kaya nga, I would rather have a garden with herbs and vegetables than a flower garden kasi hindi nakakain yun :D

Tulips are my my favorite flowers too. Virtual or real are fine. But I got a bunch of the real ones last April. Serious. Someone kind made that wish come true. :)

Long live friendships, especially the “girls who love to eat and have the it” club. I know you’ve got it..
