Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side.

Quarantine in Your Home


I wanted a break from everyone you hear often in the news and when you’re tuned out from the news there is always a talk in your home.

There are so many commotion in your home as the people in your home is going on too much stress in adjusting themselves to stay distance from each other.

You have phone calls coming on and off the only way to do are be calm as there are people going in and out of your home with having a lot of employees.

You find out you need to limit how many people entering the house and some have to stay scattered in other places while we are living in a place where we call quarantine from the outside and in your own home.

People who have expose from the outside end up having a cold symptoms and all you can do is take care of them in that process wearing a mask so you don’t catch what they have and make sure it is not what you think it is.

When I see my friends who live far away and they post they are outside with no one around you begin to envy them because where you live you feel you are in jail when you have someone roaming the house doing patrol and there is an cctv in your home.

The only thing you don’t have is handcuffs and you have unlimited internet is the best thing compared to real jail time.

The only thing you can do is think what else you can do in your home while you’re not allowed to exit your home.

You feel special when you have close friends checking up on you when something bad is happening in this world we live in.

It is a great feeling when you have close friends thinking to see how you are doing as they email, text messages and calling you up from being away from them.

At the point we live on being stranded where we are we try other ways to communicate with each other every day to see if they are still alive and ticking in their own different environment.

It is cool to hear from them as you can hear their voices or read their email from the way they express themselves.

It is a good feeling you get when you hear from your close friends that has been concern how you are doing.
