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 ...

Dealing with Aging Losing Their Sense of Vision

 



I asked Manang V for a green glass downstairs in the kitchen.

Manag V handed the glass and said that is not green that look like color white to me.

I realize when you’re getting old your eye sight begins to change the vision of one person can change when you’re not wearing any eye glasses.

Same situation had happened to my mom I placed a clear Tupperware in her freezer with a white fish inside that was cooked by Manang V when I had visited her on her birthday.

It was in a clear container my mom had a difficult time finding it inside her freezer along with colored Tupperware in which she was able to identify the other Tupperware the other day when she felt like eating her food given to me.

My mom started calling me up over the phone telling me I didn’t give it to her. No matter if you had explained where you had placed it in her freezer she won't admit she cannot find it.

My mom ended up finding the clear Tupperware after one week looking for it this is when I realize people who are much older it doesn’t matter if you’re wearing eye glasses or not even if you cannot see it you get upset to the point you get frustrated in yourself.

I realized maybe it would been easier for my mom if her Tupperware had color toned than something clear in order for her to identify what she is looking in the freezer this way it won’t take a week to find what food you’re looking for to make it easier on them.

You reach a certain age your vision begin to change and what you see doesn't react toward to other people this is what I had realize to the people surrounded around me.

Now I know what Tupperware to use when I decide to give my mom food again when in time I will be filling up her freezer with food.

To find the best plastic food keeper is to find colorful colors I had made my recent purchase from Top One MKTG Online Shopping at Shopee Philippines.

The store provide all different type of plastic containers this way any elderly can see where you place your food and you will not worry if they drop it off from their hands.

My mom loves her new plastic containers being sent to her home filled with food cooked by Manang V our cook at the house.
