My Traffic Life

I am Mae German. 34 years old. Born in Mangatarem, province of Pangasinan. I was taught and trained by Juan Dela Cruz, and I am currently being trained for more by Uncle Sam. Writing since the age of 12. Blogging since 2001. I keep a notebook and a pen in my bag, on my bedside table, and inside the bathroom. Misses a lot. Sometimes even my own voice. Loves to laugh. Sometimes even at myself. I am a work in progress. My ultimate dream is to be a SAHM. That is, if I am bound to have that chance in this lifetime... and I am.

My Traffic Rules

Don't take my words personally. At times, not even literally. This is my journal. You're my reader. My spectator. Applaud. Yawp. Yawn. Smile. Frown. Rave. Rant. Or not. Neither can I see you from where I am standing nor can I hear you.

This is not my life. Maybe just a part of it. But this is me meandering through life. My emotions fluctuate. My opinion varies. If it's too hot in here and you can't take it, leave. If it's dull and too cold, go somewhere else for warmth. I won't wipe the frown on your brow.

My stories, unless stated otherwise, are mostly fictional. Fiction could be based on reality. Still, they are fiction. Don't own it. Don't live in it. It is what it is. Leave it.

Watch out for the traffic light. Follow the rules. Cruise.

Limoncello, according to Wikipedia, is an Italian lemon liqueur mainly produced in Southern Italy, and is traditionally made from Sorrento lemon. It is also traditionally served chilled as an after-dinner digestivo (a drink taken as an aid to digestion, either before or after meal). Now I think, there could be diet pills that actually work, but for those who are trying to just burn what they have just taken, this could work.

I made my own a two weeks ago and served my first glass on my birthday. Below is how I made it (from a page that I ripped off from a magazine).

Ingredients:

4 cups Vodka
1/2 cup lemon rind
3 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar

Mix the Vodka and the lemon rind. Seal it tight. Let stand for two weeks. After two weeks, mix it with the syrup (water and sugar).

That's it. It's so easy.

The taste, according to C, is like Maxx candy (lemon flavored). Only with a kick. A strong one.
