22 Jun 2008: Treats and Truths...

Treat.

I got myself a treat. The Betsey Johnsons in Green with the matching pants. Coz I deserve it and nice shoes just have a certain fit.

Truths.

This morning Katie and I carpooled to work. She came a little early so I made chicken and sausage bomblettes with bellpepper and green onion and we had some of the coffee from my godmother's land. She was telling me that she was watching this 30 day show with dude from Supersize me and apparently now he puts people in situations for 30 days. One of them was an avid hunter being placed with some PETA folks.

So we are sitting there having breakfast and I hear Julians alarm and I walk in there and say Katie is here so don't walk around with your sausage out. Hahahha. He says Good Morning Girls and gets in the shower...

We continue our conversation:

Katie: So the animal chick says animals are more important than people. And the hunter dude asks,"so you would save the animal first" The chick says," Well, they are family wouldn't you?" Hunter dude says,"I would save your life first in front of an animals." Chick says,"But a pet is like family." Hunter dude says,"I would still save a human first." Chick shakes head.

Me: That's the funniest shit I've heard all week

Katie: Well, wouldn't you save a person first...

Me: Well...if I had to save my sisters dogs or my ex...I would save the dogs.

Katie: Bwaa hahahaa why?

Me: Because the dogs understand loyalty.

Katie: I guess if you have to choose between a maggot and a dog - the dog is higher on the food chain. Hahahahhha.

That's the truth.

More Truth.

If you tell all your friends that you are leaving your man/woman because they cheated on you. Then get in all your friends ears telling them that you are gonna start over and blah blah. Then a couple weeks later take them back. Expect NO sympathy from me because you just stopped being a victim, you are now a VOLUNTEER.

---

A little more truth

As much as I meditate and pray to have more sympathy/empathy for others I find that it is becoming impossible. If you are doing the same thing that you have been doing for the last 1/3/5/7 years and still cryin' about it - I'm just gonna play deaf on your ass and hopefully bite my tongue. Be warned - I may NOT be able to bite my tongue. If the same shit is happening to you over and over then YOU are the common denominator - work it out.

People are getting sideswiped left and right by my venomous tongue.

05 Jun 2008: So You Want It and You Wanna Eat It...

Some bitches...

Some "bitches" want their cake and to eat it too.

The other night Julian came home from playin' some tournament poker. He does this 2 or 3 times a week. He mentioned that our friend V** had been out of town in Michigan visiting his parents. I was like oh nice. So he mentioned that V** so called girlfriend approached Julian and started chatting him up. Well, she mentioned that his mother didn't seem to like her very much and felt that she should be doing "more." Bwaa hahhaha

He asked,"like what?" She said I guess like cooking and stuff around the house. And Julian just kept listening and she went on and felt that she didn't feel that she should have to do anything more than be his "girlfriend." I laughed and laughed and laughed. And Julian said what. I said well before I go off - does the non participatory hoe work? He said yes. I said okay so they split the bills down the middle and he said yes, but so do we. I said okay. I said, "she's a lazy bitch." He laughed and said you are right. So in that nice way that Julian and his Family are he said,"...perhaps you could look at this as a learning opportunity. Maybe you could learn to make V** favourites from his Mom." She basically said NO and she had no desire to do that.

THEN...she asked where is your girl, she never comes to the bar. Julian said she doesn't like bars and when she shows up places it's only to make an appearance, but my girl is doing her own THING. So then the dumb heffa presses him and he says she's either cooking or writing or painting. And the girl got this overtly dramatic move to her neck and hand and said,"Oh Hell no...I'm just not that kind of girl" Julian said,"she isn't home barefoot and cooking. She is a chef for a living and she loves to cook and I'm not gonna stop her from doing whatever she wants to do. BUT, what she does is the bomb - so lucky me." This dumb nutgarglin' hoe looked baffled. Julian said,"Look men and women are naturally good at different things...She is good at cooking and I'm not so I pay for the groceries and carry them in the house. She washes the dishes and I put them away. She does the laundry and I put that away. She organizes the house and I clean the bathrooms and shampoo the carpets. She tracks the expenses, I give her the money and she pays bills online and sends me confirmations. The girl was like Why? He said,"because this way we are pushing together instead of pulling apart..."

Of course she didn't get it and stood her ground and actually tried to magnify some moot point that she does try to cook but he would rather eat at the bar. Maybe because you don't cook in LOVE bitch. Just coz you like that shit doesn't mean it's good enough for consumption...That's WHY your Muh'fucka cheats on your ass (and I've seen it happen). That's WHY you get treated like a roommate instead of a girlfriend. That's WHY it's 4am and you don't know where that man is. That's WHY he doesn't really give a rats ass about what you do coz he does his own shit. That's WHY he doesn't care about the home you share because it isn't one. So before your slovenly ass bags any woman who COOKS check yourself. You ain't even a penny in a dimepiece world.

Mind you...a lot of my best girls don't cook - but they hustle and they never knock anyone who DOES cook. And I cook for them as willingly as I do for Julian. So I'm not knockin' the fact that she doesn't cook I'm knockin' the fact that she's knockin' someone who does. I gots. I gots my own house, own car, own shit...buy what I want when I want to and on a level that you will never aspire to domestically much less internationally. You are a thorn in that man's side and all you are doing is payin' half the rent IF that.

She's lucky V** even introduced her to his mother coz clearly she ain't even wifey material. I told Julian - I have an A with my mother in law and you have an A+ with your mother in law and all we have to do is maintain our A's. It is far better to start off with an A than it is to start with a D. City Momma has talked to Julian about how she can't wait to have Grandbebe's...and Country Momma has talked to me about how she can't wait to have Grandbebe's. I told him my mother has never talked about that in excitement EVER EVER EVER. He said neither has his. I told him do you know what an honor that is? He said YES! I said because your Momma trusts me with the upbringing of the Grandbebe's as my Momma trusts you also. That says a lot for who we are separately and who we are together.

We are lucky - to have the maternal blessings. Of course his Pops is always sayin' how he loves his daughter in law and where is that GELATO. hahahha.

So take it how you want it.

We preserve our home on a certain level because we are building a life. We both understand that we do NOT get something for nothing and V**'s bitch like so many around expect everything for nothing. Don't ask for something you do not have...if you ain't got it then you have no right to expect it. These bitties feel they can sit on that big doughy ass and get the world just for existing. Reality Check HOE - never in the history of PIMPDOM does a hoe get something for nothing. So get under that streetlight before I unravel this hanger and teach yo' ass.

Sometimes It's Cool to Be White...

...Sometimes It's Cool To Be White...IF you are pretty, like an albino peacock.

17 Apr 2008: Still The Hookup Queen...

...Still the Hookup Queen...

Some East Indian folks believe that if you consume a bit of honey and then ask for something you will have a honey-ed tongue and no one will be able to refuse anything you ask for. I like the idea of this.

I think that some people have a naturally honeyed tongue. One of them is my Mom...When mom was in the catering hustle she always got rock bottom prices and last minute requests with no problem at times things were even complimentary. I figured it was that manner in which she asked and that she was always ready to pay but always gave it a shot to see if the produce guy or butcher or suppliers would bottom the price out..

Every couple weeks we go out to dinner and then go on this movie buying blitz...We went to Sweet Tomatoes and then snatched up some movies...

My Choices:

Pistol Opera (japanese)

Dark Angel 1 (japanese)

Dark Angel 2 (japanese)

Julian's Choices:

Carlito's Way, boxed set

Don't Be a Menace to South Central...while drinkin' juice in the Hood.

LMFAOOOOOO!

I drove this time and hit a speed bump hella hard coz I was so excited to cop a copy of Pistol Opera and my FLAT indicator came on. I'm like WuuuuT. Julian just laughed. Well the guy at the dealer indicated that my front tires were a little off...40's instead of 45's. I just laughed and parked the car and told Julian I would take them to the tire place in the morning and let's just make some popcorn and watch our movies!

I went to the tire place around the corner and told Dude...My flat light indicator came on and the dealership told me you gave me the wrong tires. I even told the guy now I did purchase these last August and I would like the correct ones put on! So should I pay the difference or can we work something out.

Dude was very nice and showed them to the Manager...and turns out the manager probably slash/owners son is Korean...and he was lookin' at my paperwork...and I looked at him and said be nice Sean Oppa!!! He started laughing and said where did you learn that - I said my best friend! He said order new tires for her car and just charge her installation.

$30.50. That is what I paid. To get new tires put on and return tires that I'd already used for 9 months. And it's just in time for new tires since the weather is warming up and the asphalt will turn to an oven soon.

Lucky Lucky Me...

When City Mama was here she wanted to go to AZ Bike Week because City Mama is a Harley Enthusiast and will soon have her own custom joint. As we were walking in a gentleman walked up to us and said you ladies going in there? We said yes...and he said here you go, 2 tickets for the married ladies...

That's 18 bucks a pop we saved.

This happens all the time...random free things coming our way!

Honey-ed Life!!!

14 April 2008: Ain't Nothin But a Cake Thang Baby...

Ain’t Nothin’ But a Cake Thang Baby...
Category: Blogging

I am so lucky to be extraordinarily busy...

Right after the NYC trip we jumped into work and Julian switched to a new job (yay!)...More recently. His Mama met my Mama.

My Mom and GodMommy are here from Manila doing their thing. Fortunately Julian's Mama came in for a week visit to see us, catch the sights and spend some time with more family.

Julian's Mama is City Mama...she wakes up and as soon as her little feet hit the ground she is ready to go. City Mama has a plan and an itinerary and a car rental and places to go and things to do. She has a youthful spirit and an excitement in everything she does.

My Mom is Country Mama...because she now lives a life of leisure in her retirement. She just kicks back and rolls with the punches and likes to be a passenger in the adventure.

My GodMama is a combination of them both.

Needless to say all the Mama's got along and it was all good and all blessings. We weren't worried in the least...but as strong as our mothers were there would be a possiblity that they might not get along. I figured out from an email sent out that City Mama loves raspberry cheesecake so I made her a special no bake one: White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake with a Chocolate Pecan Oatmeal Crust. TWO THUMBS UP she said!!!

About midway through the week before we fell asleep Julian said," Thank You Bebe...for all that you do and for takin' City Mama around and all that stuff. I smiled and responded,"I am thankful that we are the good children of good mothers because not everyone is as lucky as us!" Amen right!

Julian took City Mama to the movies while I rolled up a few hundred lumpia. The next day we were supposed to take Mama out on the town but after a fun visit to tombstone she suggested she stay in since she had a trip to San Diego in the morning. Everyone ended up stopping by and Mama made everyone some mean yummy pina colada's...Did I mention Wendy loves the Mama's!!!

Julian laughed and told me one night when they were out running an errand his Mama told him,"Ju...I didn't think I'd like any of your girlfriends but Lisa...but I really like Sauce!" Julian laughed and said,"Mama - I dated that girl 10 or 11 years ago!" Bwaa hahahahahha. no wait. Bwaa hahahhahha.

I told him looks like you almost made some bad decisions Bebe. haha.

Then the two Country Mama's took off to Mexico for a 5 day cruise and then the Grand Canyon and then City Mama returned to Chicago and reality resumed. We really are blessed to be surrounded by harmony and love and sense of an even bigger family!

Amidst all this fun and love and madness (and even bomblettes for Gya)...the cakes still get made!

Samoa Vanilla

Raspberry Chocolate

Almond Snickers and Chocolate...With my cooking protege Ben in the midst of it! Little freak - we love you!

And who said you couldn't eat Plaid!!!

We just went to NYC a month ago...a nice 4 day weekend in Manhattan.

Sometimes the Sky looks like Cotton Candy...

Airports Seem More Fun When You Are Happy

Vadeem is the craziest Russian Dude we ever partied with

The NY Trip was about meeting his favourite cousins...and relaxing...

Cousin Lloyd and I got along like 2 peas in a pod

Cousin Virgil was a little more reserved but by Day 2 he was giving me a hard time too...hahahha.

We were drinkin’ in a bar with Vadeem and Lloyd and I pointed out the snow and he said c’mon Bebe - our first snow together. ahahahha

I’m going to voice an observation right now. Because I’ve been seeing people popped for their theft. If you eat stolen food you will get sick. If you steal money it will make you go broke. If you "steal" people they will happily kill you slowly. Either way you get what you deserve. But come near me no more.

Besides stealing is for the weak. If you are gonna try to get over on me come to my face with a gun and say,"Give me your shit" Don’t give me that weak ass pick my pocket in a business way shit coz I’m gonna crack your skull.

I’m off to the bay for a week next month. And then We’ll see about Hawaii and Manila!
