Last year Carmina had posted she had won in Bingo and Che had message asking me for a balito (gift). Often this word comes across when someone wins something that involves with money. Carmina decided to just give Che and her daughter clothes she had purchased in the past that was too small by size. Clothes that she never wore and clothes that doesn't seem to fit you being one size fits all. Not many Asian sizes that are one size fit you can be the right one for you. Mom Violy had mentioned to Carmina that Che and Rhian cannot afford items of their own.  The best way is to clean out stuff you don't see yourself wearing and give to those who can make use of it. Remember currently Carmina is staying in another home and still have items left behind. Everyone does their own spring cleaning just I decided to do it early. Carmina had shoes she wore a long time ago. Shoes that I hardly wore but when you lose weight so much weight your feet tend to slip away. All shoes were purchased ye...

Carmina was getting thirsty. I went inside 7 - Eleven and came across checking out what ready meals were available in the refrigerator section near the counter of the cash register. If your appetite is like mine eating four mini tacos can fill you up. At first, I couldn't find where the ground meat trying to figure where it was placed. I found out later it was combined with the cheese. I didn't need to heat it up. I was able to manage eating at room temperature by adding the ingredients that was already packed up separately.  Best Mini Tacos in Town from Pancake House at  7 - Eleven selling price is PHP 99.00 ($1.80) wasn't bad for a snack.

Moments when you walk inside shopping at Farmers Market with Mom Violy doing her weekly grocery shopping. People you don't know begin to recognize your face. There was one stall who a person asked if I was a celebrity. I giggled and said No, but I am a blogger would it be alright to take a photo together. My way is greeting myself to the person who is either the owner or employee asking permission to take a picture and video of the area where they work. I'd rather asked permission before taking any actions without them knowing what I attempt to do when shopping from them. Majority is they don't believe you at all where comes asking if they have a Facebook account. Usually, the answer is yes and getting my phone showing them my Facebook Page under Carmina Lifestyle. Others will ask me to look inside their phone to add them to follow Carmina Lifestyle. Carmina takes random videos and photos. It is never planned who you end up making a target it just happens when Mom Violy wan...
