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.

The Frazzled Cook

Yann was the one who had recommended Carmina to try The Frazzled Cook. Yann felt if I love to eat and try new food I would enjoy the type of food they cook there. It took years to actually try their food with no time and now we're staying home most of the time. We can have our food be delivered to our location by using the Grab application in the Philippines. I had a family member give me some butter garlic fresh lobster and I didn't have a pasta to go with it for my dinner. I decided to order some pasta from The Frazzled Cook. I saw in their menu that may match with my lobster is the Spicy Shrimp Pasta cooked in grilled garlic and shrimp with olive oil for PHP 325.00. I wanted to eat a soup with my meal and went toward ordering Potato Basil Chowder that had bacon in it remind me of a baked potato version but in a soup for PHP 180.00 ($3.60). Family member wanted to try their Pasta Cream with Bacon and Sage for PHP 325.00 ($6.50). Family member who loves any type of chicken wen...

Spiced Yogurt and Falafel Salad & Honey Soy Salad from Mean Greens

I've been curious to know what Falafel Salad taste like and to find it out is to order it from Mean Greens that is already added on a salad from Spiced Yogurt and Falafel Salad. I felt since I do eat yogurt I won't have a problem with their salad dressing.  Spiced Yogurt and Falafel Salad is an Mediterranean salad with homemade falafel, pickled onions, roasted squash, corn, kidney beans, cucumber, tomato, lettuce and yogurt salad dressing for PHP 170.00 ($3.40). The only item I had opted was the kidney beans from my other experience from other places I had placed and order from a salad from a restaurant. I didn't like the taste of the kidney beans. I felt it was a waste if I would add it to my salad at least someone can eat it for me somewhere else. Honey Soy Salad is sweet honey soy vinaigrette with grilled chicken, mandarin oranges, carrots, pickled onions, nuts and lettuce for PHP 160.00 ($3.20). The only thing a family did was opted the pickled onions. Strawberry Banana...
