Protect yourself and your loved ones - get vaccinated!

Carmina went to do her two weeks grocery on March 25, 2025, at Landers Balintawak branch. Upon entering the store near the pharmacy there was a sign posted saying to register for vaccines that will be held on April 12, 2025. Carmina called up Becky asking if she is interested remembered to look out for the flu shot. Becky said yes and asked her to give me full name, birthdate and phone number contact information. Carmina also called up Mom Violy said alright and still faraway to decide.  Carmina felt Mom Violy should get the flu shot since we'll be traveling to California upcoming vacation.

Big Al's Cookie Jar

  Reason something comes right in front of your face unexpected when you notice a cake that may look something familiar in what kind of cake your mom would want to eat for her birthday. It may not be the exact cake maker there are so many cakes we tend to buy for ourselves and there are new people who also bake cake but not many people recognize who they are since they are not discovered by other people. Just like those who are well known for their cakes they have also started from the basics until they have reach the level of being recognized by other people in every life it is the same pattern for everyone else in what they love to do. We honor and support those we learn and take not for granted but let them be recognized who they are is a greatest advantage that end up trying it for the first time. I am that person who had purchase a cake from Big Al’s Cookie Jar in Burgos Building through Grab Food online application in the Philippines. Too bad there was no dedication o...

Red Ribbon Bakery

  My sister had requested me to order my mom a birthday cake and have it dedicated to her children due being far from us even though they cannot be a part of our celebration the though counts when they have thought about their Nana on her special day. I had asked my mom where she wanted her cake and she had request a Red Ribbon mocha cake. I was able to order online and have it delivered to our home this way everything would all come on time there would no need to pick it up. This is my greatest advantage living in the Philippines just click and orders to have everything arrive in your home all you need to do is pay for it.

Unexpected Virtual Call

  During my visit with my mom at her home after we had eaten our lunch and was able to rest we had spent some time calling up her friends for virtual calls without letting them know ahead of time. Our first caller was our relative and wanted to call her up since I was with my mom to let her see us together funny thing I asked why I only see the ceiling with a light that looked like from the bathroom. Our cousin told us hey I am not prepared for this I am in the bathroom. 🤣 The second caller I didn’t realize the time difference was calling someone from California it was mid-night there.  It was a mistake and I had informed the second caller she said we can talk for a few minutes. I was already on another virtual call during that time. Third caller we had called my mom’s friend who is also like my adopted mom she was lying on her bed and she was not expecting a call from us. I asked to take a picture the third caller said wait I am not ready I have no makeup and I jus...
