What made Mom Violy step out of her comfort zone and try Las Flores for lunch?

  Mom Violy wanted to try Spanish food from  Las Flores  at Robinsons Magnolia . I remembered long time ago saw a family friend when my family was visiting beginning of the year. Mom Violy couldn't remember decided to have our lunch. Carmina decided to try out their Let's Do Lunch for 595.00 pesos ($10.26).

There is an unlimited calamansi but decided to pay additional for a Coke to share with Mom Violy. Mom Violy wasn't sure what she wanted ended up eating Gambas al Ajillo and white rice.

Your body clock has a difficult time going back to your normal routine. I have notice once you get a little older your body has a difficult time adjusting back to the normal cycle in your life. How do you deal from being not jet lag? How long does it take to over come to get back to your old pattern? It really depends how you train yourself with discipline.  There are people who just keep sleeping the same time as when they had traveled from a foreign country.
