I bask in the memory of those orange afternoons when the tires run smoothly on a sun-kissed asphalt. My heart just stared blankly at everything, unabashed, silent and roaring.

I love you.

But you’re not here now,

so I’m having your favorite instead.

 

Jollof rice.

Or at least what became of my attempt

to cook it. So I can experience

what my man’s favorite dish tastes like.

 

I cooked buffalo chicken wings

with it. I wish you were here

to have them with me.

On this day.

Our day.

 

53 kisses for me.

57 for you. Today.

I think I told you this before…that you will never lose this special ability to surprise me. Today, you just did it again. I know you mentioned a few times that you would prepare this dish…since you held the recipe. But, you did it like this and in this mind…I’m just…. @__@ wow…………. *fingers freeze* Thank you…sky blue………….

I think I have to practice more. Haha. This is one of your favorites. I can’t be a part or play a part of all your favorites. But this one, I can. So I’m doing it. And I love it too. So now I see why you love it so much. I had a great time cooking this (and quite a long time too!! LOL). Somehow, cooking this dish made me feel closer… to making the sky blue, just like the way we both want it.

Well, I’m happy. (l)
