The next thing to prepare was rice. She wasn’t planning on making complicated foods, but something simple, as she said when she started. And rather than using a normal pot to cook rice, she decided to use the rice cooker. It was faster that way.
So, despite viewers complaining about her shortcuts, she successfully set the rice cooker.
"Next, let’s continue with our chicken. I can smell the delicious aroma from the herbs already and trust me, we are getting there." f.(r)eewe/bnov\ll.com
After letting the pan and simmer for a while, Diamond started the next procedure, which was literally the last stage if she wasn’t mistaken.
"Next, we will add condiments. We have salt and five different types of spices. Remember that you put whatever suits you, and these five do well for me. And my boyfriend eats whatever I cook, so he is not allowed to be picky, hehe!" she chuckled playfully as she added those into the pot before stirring.
"We let everything mix very well and even as we don’t want one piece tasting different from the rest. Once this is done, we let it simmer again for a while. And while waiting for this, I will prepare something again," Diamond said as she closed the lid of the pan before moving to the freezer.
From the freezer, she took out a cabbage head, carrots, cucumbers, onions and mayo.
"I will be preparing cabbage salad, so let me quickly dice and grate these!" Diamond explained as she placed everything on the island near the stove for easy access to the pots.
"As I do this, I will pick a few questions to answer. Let me see which questions are there!" Diamond said as she looked at the different projected screens while her finger tapped the island.
{What’s your take on marriage?}
{What do you think about DINK?}
{What are your thoughts on the different types of relationships people are having now?}
{Have you always been beautiful?}
{How many are you in your family?}
Hearing Andrea giving her a list of questions, Diamond smiled thankfully. That saved her a lot of time. If she had to search on her own, the food might be fully cooked before she did anything.
"Okay, I have several questions here already. I will try my best to answer but take note guys, this is my opinion and point of view regarding this. So, you take it as dished. I can accept arguments, but don’t try to push your views to me. You are you and I am me, so remember that!" before she started, Diamond felt that there was a need to explain that first.
’SO, my thoughts on marriage. One day I do want to get married, start a family and have it so big to make up for what my parents lost. They only have two daughters, me and my little sister. Some of you know her already. We don’t have a brother, which isn’t a shame, as I love how we are."
"So, I will play my role as the eldest and expand our family as much as I can. And that also explains my thoughts on marriage and families. I want to have kids as well. Who doesn’t want to do so? However, I will not do it now. I still need to earn money and be stable."
"Picking from that, I can answer a question about DINK. Honestly, I don’t care how people want to live their lives. If that’s what they want, why should we force our beliefs on them? As much as marriage sounds good, we all know that it can be hell as well."
"The second we upgrade from boyfriend and girlfriend to husband and wife; the dynamics just change. Everything gets shifted and I believe that to those who are married, you know what I am talking about. Some of the DINK couples just want to protect their love. Rather than losing it after tying the knot, they would have it now and remain in the state when everything can just move nicely. Of course, this doesn’t imply that most DINKs don’t get married. Some of them are married, but just don’t want to have kids."
"People are born different and since it would be their duty and responsibility to raise the children, who are we to interfere? So, I can say that I support any choice as long as it makes the person doing it happy."
"The next question is regarding the several types of relationships. I am not sure what you are saying here, but I will answer it as I see and think fit!" Diamond said, her hands never stopping to move as she continued to cut the salad ingredients.
And she was nearly done with preparations as well.
