Mom Violy wanted to get a haircut from Ruel from Hairliners Salon in Ali Mall. She was saying if they are not too busy wanted to get a pedicure. Ruel had introduce Marissa to Mom Violy who can do her pedicure. Neria had approached me saying she has no client. I was able to get my facial done while Mom Violy was busy having her beauty treatments. Mom Violy had introduced me to Marissa saying they wanted to add each other in Facebook. They had no clue how to do it. Both Mom Violy and Marissa handed their phone to me. Ruel had informed Marissa that I am doing Poppo Live. Marissa asked for some pointers how to use the Poppo Live application on her phone. I taught her the basics found out she is in an agency. I don't understand why her agency is not giving her tips how to use Poppo Live. Ruel had informed me he would also like to join Poppo Live just been so busy from his work. I told everyone to gather and take pictures together since we've haven't seen each other for a lo
One day my mom and I went to the grocery store in California where I grew up she had shopped at Magat an Asian Grocery Store in Union City and my mom decided to buy the ingredients of the dinuguan.
My mom began cooking the dinuguan in the kitchen as I was watching her cook the dish I saw my mom pour something that look like blood. I questioned my mom what was that she was pouring and she said it was pork blood.
Ever since I saw the pork blood she had poured into the dish I had told my mom you are a vampire and ever since that moment I never went back to eat it until I grew older.
During the time I had celebrated my birthday and I had friends come over at my house my mom would cook dinuguan as one of the main dish and during that time we had called it chocolate meat. My friend love my mom's cooking and ask me what it was made of and I lied it was made of chocolate.
Later my friend asked again for the recipe and wanted their mom to also make it for them that is when I had to inform my friends it was made of pork blood.
Dinuguan is often eaten with puto (steam rice cake) or rice.
