After a long day of errands in Fremont, Carmina's dad found himself yearning for the vibrant flavors of Vietnamese cuisine, igniting a culinary adventure that would tantalize his taste buds.

  After doing errands with the family my dad wanted to eat Vietnamese food in the area of Fremont . My dad brought us to  Pho Lan Noodles House  for our lunch. We all decided to eat one of our favorite Vietnamese dishes. We had ordered some appetizers fried wanton and fried chicken with fish sauce . My dad had ordered Lemongrass chicken include with rice and salad in his meal but was already full when he had eaten his wife's meal. She had ordered the Chicken Banh Mi and chicken clear soup. I wanted to try their Pork Banh Mi sandwich and requested no jalapeno pepper on it. The sandwich is quite big had to slice it in the middle and the remaining was for takeout. The filling of the pork was a lot of serving soft and tender had a lot of flavoring. The bread was also soft even if it was toasted. Family members had ordered the Garlic Chow Mein with Shrimp .

Mom Violy's Experience Riding an L300 for the First Time

One week ago, Uncle Danny called up Mom Violy to inform her sister that she needed someone to drop him at the airport. Mom Violy realized her car was coding on a Thursday and asked her friend Sonny if he was able to drive his L300. Sonny said, he was available being off on that day from work. Mom Violy had informed Carmina if she can come along with her. I said yes than began thinking a concept how I can use it for my blog. I came up with the theme riding a school bus because in the Philippines people use an L300 for private school services. Other private company uses it a source of transportation for their employees or for delivery purpose. I had no problem riding in an L300. I've ridden on it in the past. Yet, for Mom Violy it was her first time. She had no clue it is difficult for seniors to climb up riding in the front near the driver. Seniors you need to assist them to climbing up. There are handles to hold on from the side. Mom Violy had no clue riding in the back it is easy ...

Who do you give your unwanted stuff?

I am sure we have friends who are having a difficult living those who live alone or have no source of family around them. Yet we are the lucky ones who can give what we no longer need by giving to someone else. Carmina looked at her belonging checking what she can give away to Becky. First, I remembered Becky needed a wall calendar that she can note down her reminders. Mom Violy had given it to me last year when she had purchased some medication.  Becky was the first person who had asked if I had a spare calendar to give to her.  I saw an alcohol spray bottle that was lingering inside our sink cabinet. I asked Becky if she wanted it for her personal use.  I remembered Becky informing her that her phone is dying, and she needs a power bank. I was able to charge it since it is not compatible with my phone. I decided to give it to Becky. Becky had informed me that her girdle I had given to her the past no longer fits because it had stretched out. Or what we call overused sin...
