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). Carmina asked for vegetable soup and Bikini sandwich which is ham and mozzarella cheese with potato chips. 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.

They never found out when they went to work and their boss was surprised why he/she was at work early. The person found out the clock was one hour ahead of time. I had to adjust the clock again to another thirty minutes ahead. I can’t figure this out you know you need to be responsible for your time. When you get older you need to set your own responsibilities and priorities in your life. You can’t depend on someone to wake you up every time. I was always taught in school when I grew...

Kombucha Cravings

I use to drink soda, but not anymore. I had limited my soda intake and concentrated in trying other drinks to be healthier and give a bit of spice in my life. My goal was to try different makers that sold Kombucha in my area. I found out Kombucha is not sold in the grocery store like when I had visit the States last year.  I did more research and found out I can purchase them online. I have been trying other brands from when I left California last June 2019. I would like to share with you I have discovered and based on what they products are compared to your country.
