Cherry Compote

I’ve been thinking a lot since this morning on what I would write about today.

Should I write about how beautiful these cherries are?

Should I write about how the sun was shining this morning and the how gloomy it became this afternoon.

Should I write about how “awake” I get in the middle of the night and just stare at my daughter who is sleeping right beside me?

Should I write about a word that I just learned recently?

Well…okay.

About three months ago, I discovered that there is actually a term used for pieces of fruit that is stewed in sugar.

Silly me.

..and that word is Compote.

Yup. Compote. Compote. Compote.

I could get used to this word…hee.

Actually, I’ve already done a lot of compote-ing… and I mean–A LOT! It’s just that I didn’t know it was called a compote before.

No, seriously, Compote is a french word which means mixture but is used to call a dessert made of whole fruit or pieces of fruit stewed in sugar and some spices over low heat. It can either be served warm or cold.

Kaya share ko sa inyo tong bago Kong #momfindsph - BETTER LIFE household cleaners (@betterlifeph ).They’re biodegradable, has plant-based ingredients, and sulfates-free.

As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for acti As a LACTUMama, I'm always on the lookout for activities that will help support Twinkle's Immunity, Brain and Bones. Good thing this All Around Development Kit from @Lactum3 arrived over the week, kaya naman ito ang aming bonding activity this weekend!

Ang saya ni Twinkle because it has all the fun exercises and activities she really enjoys doing. We planted Arugula, Mustard, and Alfalfa seeds, painted the post, solved a puzzle, and played Twister. Afterwards, I made sure to give her a glass of cold Vitaminized Lactum 3+ which helps support her all-around development in Immunity, Brain and Bones with proper nutrition and stimulation.
