Hi mama,
So I have to tell you that since you already know Im not a big fan of being a cook, lol I actually made Mexican rice and beans the other day. Haha :) and I must admit for my very first time they came out delicious!! Not as amazing as yours cus honestly no one can make food as great as you. I used your little crock pot (so I knew that was the reason) but now it's that time that everyone starts making sopas and everyone seems to be eating albondigas which u knew was our favorite when it was cold as well as ur chicken soup. So I hope to find out your recipe somehow. Lol I wanna thank you mama for looking down in me and taking care if me. You know everything that I'm going thru so please help me build my... READ MORE →

Hi My Little Nectarine!
Just dropping by to say hello, the seasons are changing and it makes me think of how much we loved fall. Fall meant the house was going to change with the decorations every month and October meant more scary movies all month long on television lol.
I loved seeing your face light up when you seen the house all decorated and of course I cherish the last xmas we had together seeing you place the last ornament on the tree.Of course this holiday season will be tough not having you around but I am grateful to have had you as my grandma.Now I embrace your spiritual presence everyday as well.
Continue to give me the strength to be strong for my mom and her the strength to all her new adjustments. Im still planning the wedding everyday beside... READ MORE →

Tia, thank you for the wonderful memories. From the all night parties to your delicious potato salad, from the beers you and Mom shared to the listening of all those "Oldies But Goodies.." You are now with your sisters and we know that all of you will be watching over all of us. Though you are gone, you will never be forgotten. You will always be on our minds and forever in our hearts.

Love you, The Lara Gang: Irene, Terry, Licha, Sally & Johnny
