Cream Cheese Mexico Buns

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

If we are watching a movie, our companion plays a big role. Trust me! The day we were in Tambun at our friends' house, they had put on a Hindi movie entitled WE ARE FAMILY. As you all know, Hindi movies can make you cry (unless you have a dry heart... hahaha... I have a 'soaking bad' heart! Hahaha). But then when I watched with them, since both the husbands (mine and the host's) are the jovial and joker type of person, we ended up laughing till my head aches! They just have something to say that triggers our laughter and it's not just any kind of laughter.. it's the kind that can make you ended up feeling exhausted!

Not satisfied, I asked my children to download the movie into my memory stick and a few days ago, while ironing, I watched again the movie on my laptop. You know what... I had my bathing towel right on my shoulder all the time.... get what I mean?

Moral of the story : Do find the right companion for the right movie! Hahahahaha.....
