Mom Violy had tried every restaurant in the mall—until word of Astons’ steak reached her, turning a casual lunch into a mission of delicious discovery.

Carmina planned to visit the newly opened Ikea at Trinoma on All Souls' Day , a Philippine holiday , thinking the mall would be less crowded. She didn’t invite Mom Violy, knowing she doesn’t enjoy going to Trinoma . While talking to Mom Violy on the phone, Carmina mentioned she was heading to Trinoma on Saturday, November 1, and invited her to come along, though she reminded her that she doesn’t like walking around that area. Mom Violy said she couldn’t recall ever visiting Trinoma, mentioning how aging parents tend to forget places they've been to. She expressed a craving for steak for lunch, so Carmina began searching for restaurants in Trinoma and sent her links to choose from.

Just Like the Young Ones the Seniors Think the Same

Just Like the Young Ones the Seniors Think the Same Some people think a senior shouldn't be thinking of purchasing an investment when it comes by a property for them. People believe the negativity that a senior shouldn't invest on a property because to them it is a waste of time and they won't appreciate it. Yes, Carmina did question Mom Violy why she wanted to invest in a property during our pandemic time. Mom Violy said it is not just for me. It is also for you when the time comes when I am not around.
