Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years.

Did you know Subway serve quesadilla?

  Did you know Subway serve quesadilla? Carmina grew up in college eating and serving Subway Sandwiches when she lived in California. Never knew they had quesadilla which is great by adding other ingredients used in a sandwich. Anyway it is complete with everything just it was a surprised for me when I had placed my order online through Grab Food in my phone using the application. Too bad the tortilla was over cooked would of been better if it didn't taste and look the way I took a picture of it.  Carmina had ordered Classic Beef & Cheese Quesadilla for PHP 120.78 ($2.41). The beef is roast beef that is sliced into square shaped with olives, onion, peppers and cheese. It was kind of hard to determine what else was inside being over cooked. It was hard on the edges.
