Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map.

Easy Three-Cheese Pasta Recipe

Carmina has a best friend she has been asking what I have been eating. I had informed her I have been cooking pasta noodles in the rice cooker.

She was curious how it is possible to cook pasta in your rice cooker. I said, it is easy just add water in the pot where you normally add water and press the bottom by plugging the plug to the socket.

The water begins to blow add enough pasta inside for example our packages is by kilo. I only add half kilo to the pot and set my timer for fifteen minutes.

I stir it with my rice spoon nothing metal, so it doesn't scratch the rice cooker pot.

I don't add any oil, but you can if you want too.

Once in a while I check it and open the lid slightly open prevent the water to overflow. Stir it so it doesn't stick the pot next you know it is already cooked. I use the steamer that comes with the rice cooker to strain the pasta noodles.

Transfer the cooked pasta in a plastic container and prepare the sauce and toppings to your pasta.


In any country there are instant pasta sauce that are premade all you need to add whatever ingredients you want to eat along with your Three-Cheese Pasta. I had added fresh spinach. I had also cook it inside the rice cooker with the same process add water, press the button on rice cooker and wait until the water was boiling to add the spinach. 

How do you know when the spinach is cooked?

The color will change turning green.

Strain the spinach and add it to your cooked pasta noodles that is already mixed into the three-cheese pasta sauce.
