Hahahahaha, the aroma of the food almost did what...? WOW, this is an evidence that women are the best, kudos to mummy for waking up that early to cook and still prepared early to Mass.
It's nice you participated fully in the Holy week activities, I ate pepper soup rice too on that Sunday. Then, in the aspect where you spoke about the country's economy, it is a disheartening situation, where the cries of the masses are nothing in the ears of the government but we still hope on God the sustain of Life as we keep striving and doing our best.
The country's economy keeps getting worst, no light at the end of the tunnel at all. The government does not even care if we survive or not, it is up to us to look for ways to survive.
