" F R A G R A N C E S "Hello everyone! This is Nicole welcoming you back to @hiveopenmic. This week's theme is really interesting. I was amazed to find a lot of songs relating to fragrances. But the fact is, I do not know how to sing them and practicing them I think would take longer than a week for me. By then I realized that fragrance does not exclusively pertain to perfumes. I am grateful for this theme for I am reminded that fragrance can be found in almost everything around us. The trees, home, our skin, beach, aircraft, ship, pets, markets, malls, airport, cars, rain, mornings, evenings, even the four seasons of the year, and others. The list could go on that I cannot enumerate them all because the wind could bring countless fragrance to us.

" FOREVER FRIENDS "Our Christmas 2024 bonding with the teens.The beauty of life is somehow unpredictable in some cases. And a solid example of that is the little details of how we meet the people we now call friends. Some get a lot of friends to keep and some choose to keep their circle small. In our younger days, we love to keep everybody our friend. But later on in life we realize, having a trusted few is enough to make us sane in giving us deep and sensible conversation, hang-out with over good food or just a latte with pastry; travel and see other corners of the world; kneel alongside us in professing our faith; truthfully correct us of our misleading; and the best - when they just simply hear out the screams in our head.

" MY GIFT TO MOM "Hello everyone, this is Nicole!

" Spring Roll, Anyone! "We all love festivities, right? Anniversary, birthday, or even small wins deserve to be celebrated. Much with the picture of commemoration, food is the best part in it. And with the true blue Filipino celebration, spring roll is never amissed. It's everybody's favorite. In case it's nowhere seen on the table, everyone is confident to ask for it. But what I love with this dish though it requires a lot of effort preparing for it, we can make it in big batches and store it in freezer for several weeks when the meat is cooked before wrapping it, otherwise, it is safer to store some for just a week if meat's uncooked. So this is what I am going to share in this content. Now, let's start rolling!

" Liquid Sunshine For An Afternoon Skyline "Hello @Beer people! It is good to back for the #BeerSaturday story. Today is another weekend of our ordinary days. I took my teens for their dental appointment and done in the late afternoon when it was still sunny. Having a lot more time, we finally decided to visit a grill resto for a short hangout. Due to the hot weather, I was thirsty as we arrived. The lucky bottle that caught my attention was that drink on the photo above. This is the common favorite beer in my country especially among women who are drinkers of light beer. This is our famous San Miguel Flavored Beer.
