Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! ☺️❤️🙏
This week has been quite busy for me, but in a good and meaningful way. Being at home doesn’t always mean resting or doing nothing. For me, it means finding ways to make my days productive, useful, and somehow helpful for our household. I believe that as long as we are willing, there is always something we can do to earn, even if it’s just a little. That mindset is what pushed me to start selling food this week. 💪
I decided to sell fried chicken and ice candy. It may sound simple, but behind those simple products are long hours of work, patience, and effort. Still, I am grateful for the chance to try and to learn. 💪🙏
The fried chicken was really a challenge for me. From cleaning the chicken, preparing the marinade, waiting for the right flavor to sink in, and then frying everything. Everything was messy and time consuming. My hands would smell like spices and oil, and the kitchen would look like a battlefield afterward. But when I see the golden-brown fried chicken ready to be displayed, I feel a sense of fulfillment. It reminds me that hard work, no matter how tiring, always has a result.
We have been selling ice for a long time already, and this time I decided to add ice candy. Making ice candy also requires patience. Cooking the mixture, making sure the taste is right, letting it cool, and then wrapping each piece one by one really takes so much time. My fingers would sometimes cramp from tying each plastic, but I still enjoyed the process. It reminded me of my childhood days when ice candy was one of the simplest joys. ☺️
The good thing is, so far, the ice candy has been selling well. In fact, they are usually sold out. Of course, we also taste them ourselves. If we like it, we eat another one. 🤣🤭 It’s our small reward after all the effort. As for the fried chicken, there are days when it’s not fully sold out. But that’s okay. The remaining ones become our meal, and no food is wasted. ☺️
Financially, I earn more from selling ice candy than fried chicken. The fried chicken doesn’t always bring profit because sometimes we end up eating what’s left. But still, I am grateful. Even a small earning is still an earning. More importantly, I am at home, I am productive, and I am able to help in our household in my own simple way. ❤️
This experience reminds me that productivity is not about how big your income is. Sometimes, it’s about using your time wisely, doing what you can with what you have, and being thankful for every small progress. These small efforts may seem ordinary, but they give me purpose and motivation to keep going. ❤️🙏
Have a Blessed Sunday everyone! 😀😀😀💖💖💖
Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!
Be grateful in every little/simple things and you’ll find happiness you ever wanted! 😀😀😀
