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. I didn’t expect the turkey to be just one piece, and the bread was toasted so hard that it removed one layer of the sandwich. Since ...

Ways of seniors to Water their Garden by Themselves



Due to my mom being a senior citizen and having no assistance when she is doing her gardening in her terrace. I asked my mom does she want to use a watering kettle to water her plants rather than going back and forth getting water in her home.

My mom has no access of using a hose due she is living in a condominium.

I asked my mom what she has been using to water her plants. My mom said she just goes back and forth using a tabu (large cup).

I went ahead and started giving my options how she doesn't need to go repeat enter her home and going to her terrace to get water.

My mom had two choices to either use a watering kettle or bucket that had a lid to leave in her terrace. 

I realize my mom is old and she won't be able to carry a heavy amount of water to bring back and forth. If my mom had a bucket to put her water and leave it in her terrace it seems easier to do it this way.

I was able to find a seller to get the needs of my mom for her gardening that she loves to do during her pandemic. The size was just right for her age to be not carrying a heavy load of water away to prevent her returning back and forth to her home.

I was able to find a seller from Online Shopee Philippines who was selling something my mom had in mind to make everything easier on her behalf from Lucas Houseware Collection for PHP 99.00 ($1.98) small Kendi bucket with lid color red not including shipping and handling.

We've decided to pick a color bucket a way to see it right away.

You reach a certain age your eye sight begin to change and to make it readable in the eyes of the senior citizen is to have a color they can identify what is in front of them.

Note:

I am not selling Kendal bucket or advertising for Lucas Houseware Collection just needed it for my mom's gardening needs.
