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 ...

Eye Opener


My friend say’s I am an eye opener when they never knew all about themselves and not realizing what they are to themselves.

There are times when we do something and act differently toward someone we don’t realize what it means to the other person.

Sometimes we never think the actions we take and what it means for the other person.

I am not sure if being an eye opener is a good thing or something someone will stop being the way they are to you.

As you compare the person you think you are not sure if that person sees his/her action the way they really feel for someone.

As you observe the person well enough and they don’t recognize the actions they do to their friends it becomes an eye opening for them.

Everyone takes everyone’s action different than other. Some people take it for granted some people take it as there is something more there for them.

Here is an example:

Minda: Enjoys hiking and spends hours walking up the mountain to reach the waterfall.

Carmina: Gets tired easily when she climbs the mountain and can’t reach up to the top she is already tired and would rather take pictures of the surrounding.

Minda: Loves taking pictures and keeping it in her hard drive.

Carmina: Loves taking pictures, but likes sharing it by adding it to her blog or in the media for her family and friends to see it.

Minda and Carmina: Knows how to sew and mend clothes at home.

Minda: Loves to read books and reads Carmina Life Style

Carmina: Enjoy writing in her blog and let other's read it

Minda: Only likes to travel within her area

Carmina: Loves to travel around the world

Minda: Is into sports

Carmina: Is not into sports

As you narrow down all the personality of someone and compare it with yourself you get to see what you have in common and what you don’t. You only get to know that friend more once you have spent a lot of time with them.

Everything you write about them becomes an eye open to see what is the difference you have with one another as it becomes your kind of identify to see how well your friendship means to them.

They begin to thank you because they never knew all these personalities really exist. As they read it becomes an eye opening to them.
