Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things……

I’m always fond of singing this Sound of Music song since I was little.  When somebody bullies me at school, I just sing this song which instantly vanishes my blues away.  Although the things in the song are not really my favorites, singing the song still makes me smile! 🙂

By the way, I’m telling you this because I’ve got this one favorite thing today!  It is soft as a mallow, bouncy as a teddy bear, and homey as a warm embrace.  It is none other than – the couch at Café Eduardo!

The couch has been there for me since last year!  When there are things to celebrate, we celebrate with her!

The couch has seen me through these days that I already considered her as one of my girl friends!  That’s the reason why I regard her as “her”!  If only the couch could talk, she could tell you of my ups and downs, my laughters and frowns, and my glories and falls.

I am so glad there is Café Eduardo where I can be so comfortable hanging out in!  It is my place of refreshment not only physically but also mentally and emotionally.  It is my “chicken soup” for my languid soul.  For a hundred bucks of coffee with a friend or two or more can keep me sane from my grueling workaholic attitude!

Written by Mae Olandesca

Mary Rosalie Olandesca, a lover of the arts, humanities, and social sciences, found herself entangled in the realm of applied science and engineering, a path that didn't align with her true passions. Determined to break free from her "chemical engineer" title in the Philippines, she embarked on a brave journey to Toronto, fitting her life in only two suitcases. Despite completing her Chemical Laboratory Technician program at Seneca Polytechnic just recently, she realized that the chemical world failed to ignite her heart. A momentous realization led her to embrace her true calling as a writer, with a Creative Writing course acting as the catalyst for her long-time passion in wordsmithing. Thus emerged the extraordinary persona of Mae, the other side of her multifaceted identity. For more insights into Mae's captivating journey, visit her website at www.theothersideofmae.com as she is no more an average small-town girl and is now making big things happen in a megacity!
