I tried every pastry at Segovia’s Cake & Recipes — here’s which one stole my heart (and why you need to try it this).

Mom Violy and Carmina attended the viewing of a family member who had passed away. During the reception, a relative mentioned there was food being served, and Leny told us someone had given them cheese mamon to try. Mom Violy brought up other bakeries, but Leny encouraged her to taste it and see what she thought. Leny gave us so many mamon to take home that the next day, Mom Violy asked Carmina to find out the bakery’s name. When Carmina messaged Leny, the names Mom Violy suggested didn’t seem quite right. Leny explained it was near Mom Violy’s home, which was true— Segovia's Cake & Recipes , located at 7 M.A. Reyes Street , Little Baguio , San Juan City, Philippines . Carmina shared the bakery’s Facebook page so Mom Violy could call and reserve her own mamon before visiting. When Mom Violy called, she was told they had many orders due to the Christmas season and should visit in person. They also sold other baked goods.

No Contact is the Best Solution

I have notice for the past months when I have been staying at home you come across friends who you chat with everyday or you have friends who suddenly disappear without letting you know what has happened to them. I use to question their absence and leave messages to my friends to let them know how they are doing but sometimes you come across they only seem to just read your message without replying back.

There is no reason to wait for their call or message for them because if they really want to reach out to you they will f...

Status Symbol of Your Life

We come across a discussion with someone and they ask what your status is doesn’t mean the status if you are single, married, divorce or widow. They are asking the status if you are poor, middle or rich. Does it really matter what status you are among your friends? This is my story I came across from when I had started living in the Philippines to explain why it doesn’t matter to me what status you are and who knows you may also agree or disagree with me. When I moved here in the Philippines I had to start from the bottom just like anyone else moving to another foreigner country as we all have moved across another place other than what you are use too your living environment because more dramatic than what you are use too. In the beginning you cannot complain where you’re living because this is a part of life that comes with adjustment period not only for yourself but the people who are involved. When you live with other people who not only a family member and em...
