Carmina's quest for the perfect display for her treasured mementos led her to an extraordinary find

Carmina was looking for the best way to hang treasured pictures and mementos from a keepsake. I felt it was time to bring them out and display them on my wall. I saw many options, from cork boards to felt boards , but I didn’t want an ordinary board hanging there. I wanted it to be part of my wall décor, placed above my desk where I sit daily—something I could look up at and be reminded of past travels and accomplishments. Some people keep them in photo albums or store them digitally, but I wanted mine on display. What caught my eye from an ordinary felt board something had a roof which remind me a house. The best part it is light weight and it has a mount tape in the back attached to the felt board included was thumb tacks and something else where can decorate. Carmina had purchased the three dimensions roof felt board wall self-adhesive retro premium wall decoration message measurement of 60x80 cm in color camel for 875.00 pesos ($14.34) not including shipping and handling.

Butterflied Pla Pla with Buto and Mustasa from Manam Comfort Filipino

 


When family friends inform you of their visit to the Philippines, it’s common for them to update you on their schedule and let you know when they’re free to meet. Carmina messaged Tita Edita, suggesting lunch with Mom Violy. Tita Edita mentioned that her son and husband, Tito Rozel, would also join, which was great news for us since we were excited to see them again. As the day of our gathering approached, Tita Edita asked whether lunch or dinner would work better. Mom Violy preferred lunch, so we agreed on October 4, 2024. Later, Mom Violy noticed a post from Tita Edita mentioning they had wanted to eat at Manam but had to wait as they were number 15 in line before being served.

Mom Violy decided to make the lunch be at Manam Comfort Filipino inside Robinsons Magnolia.

Mom Violy ensured she arrived early to secure the reservation, making sure we could hold our spot as the restaurant only allowed four people. She had invited Edna to join us for lunch and had already pre-ordered the food she wanted to enjoy with her friends.

We didn't know what time our visitors would arrive. 

The palabok didn't turn out as expected, partly because the noodles were already cold while Tita Edna was making comments and taking a video. It's usually not like this when it's served fresh. Regardless, the palabok still tasted the same. Meanwhile, Carmina noticed a new dish on the table—Butterflied Pla Pla (tilapia) with Buto and Mustasa.

If you don't want to eat what someone has ordered, you can choose something you like from the menu.

The choice was crispy pork kawaii small, served with garlic rice.



Everyone had a wonderful time bonding and hearing stories from each other.
