Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53). A family member ordered an Atomic Burger for 695.00 pesos ($11.78) along with a Lobster Mac & Cheese for 990.00 pesos ($16.78).

Just over the weekend my
mom wanted to go shopping at Greenhills Shopping Mall in San Juan to get her
pedicure. I was telling my mom lets do it on March 11 when I will be renewing
another cell phone contract from my Globe account.
Good thing my mom said, she wanted to shop somewhere else and she
gave me list of days to pick out for this week.
I told my mom let me check the schedule of my boys so I can figure
out how I can squeeze myself in their schedule.
I decided to go on Monday, March 2 with my mom.
When I came home that day I had heard in the news there was a
locked down in Greenhills Shopping Mall in San Juan. You realize to this point
if I didn't choose a date to shop with my mom somewhere else we would be
involve in that locked down.
This is when you realize it is not your time to experience
something as horrible as those 50 people have experience that day when a gun
man held 50 people hostage.
You realize how lucky you are and God holds you back not going in
a danger zone.
