No matter how busy we are, we always spare time for our love ones. Eating together will keep the bond to your partner and you will never out of words in making conversations while eating. Despite the different choices of foods, it is important to respect what someone wants and not what you wants.
Just like me I love bacon and egg with garlic rice for breakfast. Although it’s not that often but once I’m craving for it, we will find place which we can order both what we want.
My partner loves eggs, hash brown, toasted bread and sausage( of course no rice) and we both love coffee his is black coffee and mine is cappuccino. Well, if the coffee presentation would always be like this....
I would love to have it every morning. Well the bottom line is we enjoy each other company and respect each other idea.
We enjoy talking about foods.
We been raise up in different living lifestyle, culture and family background. So we never run out of topic to talk. He loves talking about their Spanish foods which is somewhat related to most of Filipino foods.( only the name is different)
Most of the time we order different dishes so we can share.
Normally Americans don’t want to share their foods. They want to eat without any distraction and fill in their hungry stomach. They don’t believe in sharing is caring (well, I don’t know for some) In our end, I think he already adjusted some Filipino style that’s why it doesn’t matter to him anymore. We will share whatever we’ve got.
Dining area are the setting of all big talks
When it comes to plan for the day. Talking about places we want to visit or it fun and exciting adventure yes, that would be a perfect part of the house to talk. But, when it comes to serious problem that you might think upsetting to someone you need to wait for a perfect timing that for me when your partner is a n good mood!
No food- shaming
The foods that he don’t really like are dried fish and balot ( duck egg embryo) but he never once roll his eyes if I’m craving for it.
Support each other’s food craving.
He loves chocolate me I don’t so when we go to supermarket I will remind him for his chocolate or candy. Likewise with me, he will remind of my sardines.
Food plays a huge part in all of your holidays together.
We are both organised when it come for holidays out. First thing first, the place where we eat should be commonly what we like. Whenever new restaurant are open we won’t be absent for that. This is our favourite place to eat together in regular days. Especially after our workout at the gym.
Share cooking responsibility
I don’t know much American foods but once he offer to cook, he will teach me at same time. Same thing I teach him Filipino foods but I think he quickly love the foods here. His favourite are mongo soup, pancit and pork apritada.
Nothing really hard to deal with if you put yourself to someone shoes. It’s easy to understand feelings and relate their experiences.
